I don't know what the real story is, no do I want to know. If the buyer received a broken machine, got a full refund, and kept parts, he is a theif. No way around it. We can only be responsible for our own actions. The fact that the sell may have been a moronic dip, and destroyed a machine through poor packing doesn't give a purchaser a free pass to be an equal dip in return, no matter how obnixous the seller was in the process. I'm sure everyone's mommy told them, "two wrongs don't make a right." The seller was made whole by the refund. At that point, it was no longer his turntable, but the sellers pile of parts.bart1927 wrote:As usual, there are always 2 sides to the story. I now recall reading the original thread on the OTVMMB. Of course it is not right what the buyer did, but I can understand that he did it out of anger. Haven´t we all experienced situations like that? You buy something on Ebay you really like, you give the seller specific instructions on how to pack (including an illustrated demonstration), he tells you not to worry `cause he's been in the business for 30 years, your parcel arrives, and everything is in pieces. Of course the seller denies it was his fault, and he blames it all on the parcel service. After much correspondence back and forth you finally get a refund, but that won't bring your broken turntable back. A beautiful piece of history destroyed by a careless fool.Guest wrote:Here is the link to the whole story:
