It was a long time ago, and I didn't realize their potential. It was just more weight to me.

That is some bullshit. Now that eBay has that super integrated postage/shipping system sellers do this thing all the time where I'll pay and five seconds later there is a tracking number and "marked as shipped", but they don't actually take the package to the post office for a week.nowaysj wrote:Mf...

Seller is like as soon as they come in, we'll ship it out to you. I was like I could have had it already from another seller, they're like don't worry, and promptly issued me a tracking number. A prospective tracking number, for the package they haven't shipped. I really hate sleezeballs.

Whoever I bought my MicroBrute from on eBay (I think it was PixelProAudio) dicked me around like that for a while. They didn't ship and didn't ship. Then all they did when I complained was issue a tracking number. Post office didn't actually receive the item for another week.
I've never given negative feedback, from '99 til now. But I think this B is getting some.Hello, despite the fact that I could have received the Volca Sample already from other sellers, I have agreed to wait until today to give you the benefit of the doubt. You have agreed to ship the Volca Sample by today, Wednesday 3/4/15. If you do not do so, I will contact pay pal and seek a refund.
Please, I've tried to work with you, but I will not be strung along by delaying tactics such as the issuance of tracking numbers for packages you have not given to the carrier, or promises to ship at successively later dates. It is a dishonest and disreputable thing to do.
