My first SNAD scam

6 years with no problems, guess my time was due.

And I made every noob mistake you can make.

Sold a guy a bunch of little electrical connectors.

New in package.

 

My partner calls me, and said the guy just called about bad parts.

So I call the guy, and he says some are crudded up.

No problem, I will send out replacements.

But it may take a few days, we have flooding and the roads are closed.

He says no problem, no hurry.

He ask for my email, to send pics.

No need for that, it's only a few bucks.

 

So all communication was off ebay.

Then I said send pics, as I see no crud on my stock.

He sends picks of a crudded up item.

Then he opens a case, but he only uploads some of the pics to ebay.

Not the ones where he had used the product.

 

I say return for refund, no problem.

I try to put my address on the return.

but it must have defaulted to my partner.

Well it went to my partners folks home, where he lived 6 years ago.

 

So he calls and says he got the package.

The next day I refund.

But then I get to thinking, there is something odd here.

 

So I call my partner, and have him send pics.

The guy had installed the parts, then just cut the wires off.

And he shorted me one.

Sent back junk.

 

That was why I was in a foul mood, a few weeks back.

Soon I will start a real job, and my ebay days will end.

I could have won, but I messed up.

( he was not a fly boy )

I honestly imagine people sitting at the computer with their spouse or partner saying watch this honey I'm about to get one over on this poor unsuspecting seller.


My wife shows me goofy stuff on the web.

Big game hunter kills an elephant.

And as he poses for the picture, the elephant rolls over and crushes the guy.

Funny how Karma works.

Welcome to the Club!  NOW you're a true eBayer.  Good luck with the new job, but you have eBay blood pulsing through your veins.

You'll be back...you'll be back...you'll be back...Muhahahaha!

My daddy used to build planes.

My first SNAD scam

"If you can't fly a plane, I don't want to sell to you. Period"

I can't fly a plane, tho when I was 5 my father took me up in one and I got to 'steer' lol, and lived to tell the tale...60 years later. And I still remember it. Tho what I had for breakfast yesterday, who knows.

On the other hand I can play the piano, amd sing (mostly in key)......I'll be a hit in the old folks home.
