    Longest transaction ever!

    Three months ago, I buy a figure from a seller.
    No clothes or accessories, just bare bones, but it's a start...

    Last month, the guy mails me he has found the accessories, should I want them. I say "YES".
    We've been negotiating for six weeks now, and every time it takes two weeks for the guy to respond to an e-mail. Man, the suspense is killing me.
    Is he a sailor or something? An astronaut?

      Don't count me out just yet.
      I'm going to wear out that seller and get those accessories, even if I'm 80 when I get them!

        I can top THAT!

        Back in December, I bought a replica of the medallion worn by Judson Scott in the TV series 'The Phoenix'. I was assured that I would have it.

        Three months later, plenty of benefit of the doubt, and 34.95 later, still NO MEDALLION!!

        This is in spite of repeated emails, a phone call that wasn't answered, and an investigation launched by ebay.

        I've gotten stuff from Hong Kong of all places in less time than that!

        Hell, I've gotten stuff from London in less time than that!

        If anyone here is interested in one of those medallions, DON'T go to this guy!

        If anyone is interested in the name of the person to avoid, PM me, and I'll send you full details.

        I doubt if I'm ever gonna get that fricking medallion at this late stage of the game.


        *Sigh*

        Me and my covetousness to own even a replica of a fine piece of jewelry!

        I have been duly punished for my sin.

          Thing is, the seller and I get along great. We always agree.
          I haven't paid anything yet. I told him the price was OK.

          Maybe he's just lonely?
          All he wants is a friend.
          Or what if he's a paedophile? Luring me with toys?

              He's gonna be awful disappointed to find out you're 43.
              It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                  hey, other than having to wait a realy looooong time to find out if you get the accesories, you lose nothing by trading a few emails.....just don't send those nude photos of yourself when he starts asking.
