I saw an item i was interested in on eBay--a 1964 photo tattoo, which had one side (with the player) visible. However, since it's easy to trim these things, i wrote to the seller and asked to see a scan of the other side (then i could tell from this side if the item was complete or not). He wrote back and said "the other side was perfect", and didn't send the scan. I wrote back and said i was glad "it was perfect" but said i'd still like to see the scan, so i could see what i'm buying. He wrote back and sarcastically said "if his word wasn't good enough, he'd rather i didn't buy it"! So i tried one more time, and politely explained that some of those tattoos are trimmed, and unless you're familiar with these issues, it's hard to tell from just seeing that one side. So his final reply was this: "Please Please do not bid. I don't have a return policy and don't want to deal with such pety issues. I enjoy selling to those who don't want items EXACTLY like they looked the day they were made......". I have copied word for word what he wrote.
Can you believe that???? I guess some sellers just don't care what they sell, as long as they can get some sucker to buy from them!

OK, off the soap box. Sounds like a power-seller who deals in volume rather than quality. It's probably best for both of you not to deal with each other. And yes, some sellers don't care what they sell.
Of course, if you put a little linky to that auction, maybe several of us could ask him some questions...
<< <i>don't want to deal with such pety issues >>
This is both inherently stupid and tragic.
Would not want to dignify the response with anything more.

You guys....LOL... this is not the first time a group of us bombard a dubious seller with questions and set him off tail between legs. Got to love it!
