 | and this is so mild ...you can imainge how i feel when im
 sent damaged items in plastic bags 6 months late.(with no
 comunication)
 
 because it is all about communication. You could send me a
 piece of dog poo in a bag that was meant to be a diamond
 ring and get away with it,  if your polite and send lengthy
 explanations.
 
 i bought an item off ebay from america. (silly, cause i
 don't live over there)
 
 anyway, it took them a week to put it in a box
 
 ive been waiting over 2 weeks for it to get off the dingy
 they loaded  it on with with a 14 year old girl rowing as
 hard as she can after being fed one piece of toast for the
 whole journey.
 
 i thought well i am tracking the dingy...so i'll keep quiet
 , i wont say anything ..even though i'm peeved i could have
 just payed a few extra quid for a faster method.
 
 when i ordered the guy was all " hey thanks so much , im
 sure youll enjoy your item ..blah blah blah lets meet up and
 have a beer, " ( haha,y know what i mean)
 
 now i ask 2+ weeks later where my item is ..politely and
 with pleases and thankyous ...he just emails and says
 
 "usp tracking no.993****"
 
 no f**kin  hello, sorry or goodbye!!!!
 
 im gonna fly to america and break his F==infingers.
 
 thank you for your attention ...goodbye :)
 
 freqs

 | i knw there are 'far worse' stories but, it just  goes to
 show that the after sales communication is what really peevs
 people off..
 
 im sorry ..can i delete this negative post?
 
 this thread could turn into a black hole of death and suck
 out all the good things in life. still it releaves alot of
 tension.
 
 buut it would be better to convert negative energy to
 positive in my head before i  speak or type,...cause the
 social chain reactions of my comuniction actions could
 negatively influence people that read this and hurt people
 around them and so on ..
 all around the world..(cut to camera shot of an old git
 sitting in front of his computer dribbling and picking his
 nose)

 half the price even considering the shipping fees to
 Poland.

 | If the $ was a person, it'd be that man from Unbreakable with incredibly fragile bones.
 
 freqy, yes, it's wank. They get away with it because most
 people roll over and take it and don't press the matter
 further. If sellers are in the UK it sometimes gets to the
 stage where I have to threaten to go round (not that hard
 for me as I travel all over regularly anyway). I don't care
 if it costs me £50 of fuel to get something I bought for
 £10, it's the principle of the thing that is worth far more
 than the small amount of money. I blame the youth's, "Meh,
 it's not worth the hassle, it's only £10" attitude.
 
 I think there's scope for some sort of global network of
 people who won't put up with this shit and when someone from
 America orders from a UK company 20 miles from me and they
 shaft them, I could "pay them a visit" to sort it out. Then,
 when I order something from Sweden that doesn't arrive,
 someone local there can go round to chase them up.

 | thanks for your replies everyone.
 
 Ceri JC your are a genius with your global network idea.
 
 yes indeed !  id do that too..if you ordered a stereo from a
 shop near me , i would go and visit them with a photo copy
 of your receipts and demand your item . With my portable dat
 id record what they say and send you the tape ...and then id
 get credit  on your website...like an oniky/ebay type
 system. lol
 
 or with situation if you remember  : They didnt even say
 "hello" or "best wishes" to me in their email after i was
 patient and quiet for over 2 weeks waiting for my item.
 
 i could put out a request for someone to go around  to their
 warehouse and break their legs!!, just for a laugh like!!
 lol.
 
 (my gosh i cant beleive i just typed that) ...
 
 id be saying to myself
 
 "but they need a good kicking freqy . just click on "request
 " with your mouse button..thats all it is ...just a little
 click!

 | I'm so empty. everyone has stolen from me. now there is nothing left. i am invisible. i walk around but i can't feel
 my feet touch the ground. i talk aloud yet i don't hear my
 voice make a sound.  my brain seems squeezed dry. like a
 lemon in the Sahara. cracked, peeling and unprotected from
 the elements. sand constantly blowing in my face. i continue
 to struggle. how much longer will i hold out before I'm
 buried neck deep. vultures circle over head. the stench of
 decaying flesh fills my nostrils. blanketed by a thousand
 needles. blistering under the heat. water evaporates in my
 mouth. mind separates from body. light years fly by. time is
 slowed. i am not afraid anymore. let it go.

 | Ive been fucked over on ebay. Never take a chance. If the seller is playing dumb like "I don't know how it works but
 it powers up"..stuff like that is a red flag. You are also
 encouraged to give great reviews cause you want one in
 return. Ive written some people hate mail years after the
 fact. It just needles at you.
