We all have some minor foolishness to gripe about so here is mine. I won an auction on Ebay for a Deluxe version of an album. I got it for much less than if I'd bought it new so I was happy. The cd arrived yesterday but when I open it it was just the normal version. I messaged the seller and said he'd sent me the wrong item, asked him to send me the one I'd bid on. He come back and told me that I was mistaken and that was version in the auction. Bullshit.
So I sent him a screenshot of the auction which was clearly labelled and showed a photo of the deluxe cd. He come back and told me he had to put that photo up because Ebay didn't have a photo of the cd he was selling. Bullshit. I sent him a bunch of screenshots of the 2 versions on Ebay and again asked him to send out the cd I paid for. He came back and said they were almost identical so he couldn't see what the problem was. Bullshit. 1 is a straight remaster. The other has live stuff and demos. No reply to that.
So now I'm starting to lose my patience with this guy and I message him saying I'd like a refund if he's not going to replace the cd. He comes back saying, well if it's that important to you I suppose you can send it back and I'll refund you when I have the time. Asshole.
Anyway, I checked the other stuff he was selling and surprise surprise there's a listing for the cd he sent me. I guess what happened is he thought he was going to get a lot more cash and wasn't happy with my bid, so he sent out the other cd hoping I wouldn't know the difference. The thing is he must have accidentally hit the refund button cos I got a message from Ebay about it this afternoon. Now I'm thinking fuck that guy, I'll be an asshole too and just keep the cd. Maybe it'll teach him a lesson about screwing people over.
On a more positive side. I bought an album and the seller has been great. He's thrown in a couple of 12" singles for free and has kept me updated with the shipping even though I didn't ask him to do any of these things.
