i bought quickbooks 2010 on ebay, and installed the software...i never thought this would be foo foo product. But after installation it asked if i wanted to register, naturally i said yes...but then it told me to call intuit's 800 number.
i gave them the product id and keys and they told me it was a foo foo. they asked me how "product" was spelled on the package and i looked and it was spelled "prosuct"!! dangit...what to do? intuit didn't want to help me, told me to buy from them :(
i hope i didn't buy this from a forum member  | |
The complete step-by-step guide to get back to selling today!

Out of all this time on the forum you would think you would know how to spot a foo foo by the price and where it's being sold at.

Let me get this straight,,,,You,,,A Former EXECUTIVE on this Forum,,, are looking for help in dealing with an Ebay Seller who sold you a Counterfeit Version of Quickbooks,,,,
I seem to Remember How you COMPLETELY Screwed a Totally Legit Amazon Seller in a Vacuum Cleaner Deal a Few months ago,,,and how you Posted it here,,, and how you got Blasted by me and other Forum members about it,,,,What Happened?,,,,,,Did you lose your VERMIN Skillset???,,,,,,
Do the Same EXACT thing to your Ebay Seller as you did to the Vacuum Cleaner Seller on Amazon,,,and you will come out on Top again,,,,At least this Ebay Seller Deserves it,,,,

What, if anything are you wanting now? Is it a moan or hand-holding exercise? 
Again, I'll say it . There is RARELY an item on ebay worthwhile buying that might cause a STEALTH account problems. Who gets caught in a bidding war unless.....
#Hell I'm speechless

(edit: And so, what's the point? Not trying to be mean, but isn't it obvious what to do here? Get a freakin' refund man, file an item not as described, tell eBay and Paypal he sold you counterfeit merch. Take a pic of the misspelling for proof, easy.)

i'm going to go ahead and just keep it, it seems to update fine.
i checked this guys feedback and what he's selling, i don't think he did this on purpose. i don't want to mess up his feedback or his standings with ebay./

most people don't break the law by accident
You realize if it's foofoo, and you still choose to use it, you can get in trouble right?

If it was a mistake you are entitled to a refund
If he got caught you are entitled to a refund
Either way, its ⊗⊗⊗⊗

I don't even understand why you opened a thread for this. Not like it's a complicated issue.
