Fingers crossed. | Be VERY careful with buyers that buy a lot of computer parts, in the last 12 months i've had three damn buyers buy items off me (computer parts) and send me an email as item not described,etc because they claimed the part didnt work...One item was a tested refurbished HDD i bought off newegg, the next item was some DDR3 laptop ram and the last item was a monitor.
The first guy that said the hdd was bunk i know for a fact ripped me off...all HDD's have serials numbers on them..yes i know that..but what this guy did was take off the pcb board off my hdd which was find and working and put it on one of his dude HDD"s that werent any good..i could tell because when i shipped off the item i always look at everything closely,etc and i noticed the pcb board on the underside of the HDD had screw marks on them..it takes a special screw driver to get these pcb boards off Sata HDD's..plus my pcb board and dark brown foam padding under it..when i got the HDD back..it had light grey foaming under it. So i go look at the guys past buys...and here this guy has been buying broken HDD's exactly mine and also buying working HDD's exactly all the same model as mine...so this guy clearly is buying broke hdd's and switching the bad pcb's on them..its one of the first things that go bad on HDD's that click.
The guy that bought the ram..he did a switch on me as well and claimed the ram didnt work..again..i tested the ram..in fact the ram was pulled from my own laptop after i had ugpraded from 8gb ddr3 to 16gb ddr. It was my fault because the pictures i took ..the opposite side of the ram had a stick with a long string of numbers, SN and model,etc..well he must of noticed that my pictures the end portion of the model number was cut off in the pic..so the last two digits were missing...he noticed that and sent me back ram that was CL8 ram when i sold him CL9 ram...the ram i got back...of course didnt work.
The monitor i sold...we another scam where the guy sent me back the monitor stating it wouldnt work...i look at the monitor as i owned it and used it daily for two years straight...i remember a few scratches and certain marks on my monitor that were on my monitor..i didnt think of taking pictures of these ligth tiny marks on the shell of the monitor..not the screen..the screen was flawless...but anyways...this dude got me as well...this guy and the guy that got me on the ram both happened with same week believe it or not...the first scam happened months earlier.
There is ring of guys that are in on this together...you can view it here Dean Collins: When did ebay remove the rights to leave bad feedback about buyers?
This guy in the link above works with other guys..they are from Hong Kong but use a USA address which at this address ship off their bought items to them in Hong Kong... be careful because they use a ton of alias..some think its just one guy..but its a multiple of people in on this ring of scammers. One that recently bought ram off me was from this list of scammers in the link above..his name was TVBuddy2013...now days i always do a quick google check on ebay names..sure enough i hit the nail on this guy and found he was a ripper..so i immediately refunded him before i shipped off |
