  1. Don't mention Amazon. They might block you from their private lists...

     

    Not likely. :facepalm:

     

    He is never going to get it. At this point he will find out the hard way. There is nothing any of us can say or do that will open up his eyes. I blocked him as I do not want to deal with his potential drama or his attitude as it is not worth it to me. Other people can coddle his behavior and take his money.

     

    At least that is my perspective in this matter.

     

    I'm still waiting on your eBay ID to avoid like the plague. If you have a website let me know as well please. Don't want to deal with someone who can't respect others opinions.

     

    Potential drama? This is what annoys me. You express an opinion and just because it's not the same as yours it's coddling just because I don't agree.

     

    You want to be a jerk? Fine, but don't be insulting. People I have dealt with have never had a problem so get off your high horse.

  2. I've seen pre-order deals that said "If the price goes down at the time of pre-order, then your payment will be adjusted accordingly."

     

    That's the best kind of pre-order deal. The point of a pre-order is a guaranteed sale, not a profit inflated above the actual market value.

     

    If the pre-order deal doesn't explicitly offer that kind of adjustment, then maybe it's best not to pre-order at all.

  3. However, you are blocking me based on my opinion and not actions.

    They are blocking you because your opinion speaks to your character.

     

    And many in here don't want to deal with the potential headache of dealing with someone of questionable character.....whether your actions have reflected it yet or not.

     

    I hope I never have to deal with you, and as said before in a previous post.

     

    Read my feedback.

  4. Ok, so first I'd tell you that you can cancel the purchase but I'll be nominating you to the Probation list and then the Hall of Shame if you don't complete.

     

    Because you're on the probation list I won't sell you that book or anything else.

     

    But that's not what is being disputed here.

     

    What is being disputed here is that the item isn't a pre-order.

     

    You as the buyer agreed to enter into a contract with me to pay me for 1000 USD, and you already started to pay me that money. You have broken that contract.

     

    I'm not saying what happened to COMICKINGS was right. It was a person_who_is_obnoxiously_self-impressed move from the buyer, as he was pretty much dangling the carrot and the stick in front of him, essentially saying, you can get 80, or you can lose 100.

     

    What the buyer should have done, is asked, I can see that you are selling this item for 80, and I agreed to pre-order at 100. Are you ok to change the value to 80?

     

    If COMICKINGS said no, then the buyer, within his consumer rights (based on whatever country he's in), has the right to cancel those goods. Wouldn't be nice and if COMICKINGS wanted to, he could just place him on his blocked list.

     

    All I said, and what started this whole witch hunt was, I said I understood the buyers point of view.

     

    And my experience does come from LARGER retailers such as Amazon that actually do have Price Promise policies in place, and that they break if the loss to the product is too high, whether they admit it or not.

     

    Now I know we're not talking about larger retailers. We're talking about eBay and the boards, but to block me for something that I haven't done is absolute BS.

     

    I've been a member since 2010 on the boards, and on eBay even longer and I've never reneged on a deal. The only deal that I have ever reneged on was on a shill bid, I had evidence and that account got closed.

     

    So, based on that, do you still feel it's right for you to block me. You or anybody else based on my opinion?

     

     

     

  5. And you are entitled to do so.

     

    However, you are blocking me based on my opinion and not actions.

     

    So have at it.

     

    Since you didn't quote who this was directed to -- and since at least two people here have publicly stated that you're on their "do not deal with" list now. with another number of people having for all intents and purposes implied the same without necessarily stating it outright (all of whom, BTW, I believe I've dealt with in one fashion or another in transactions before that all went fantastic, and all of whom are top-notch people to deal with, so ... (shrug) ) -- I'll answer this, in case it was directed to me.

     

    I'll quote myself, in case you didn't actually read it:

     

    Not because you're not entitled to your opinion -- you're welcome to it -- but you're now on my list of people I won't sell to or buy from, and this is how I keep track of them. I don't want to deal with the hassle of finding out where your desire to save money and the principle of keeping your commitment to purchase something actually intersect. (shrug)

     

    In simpler terms, despite your own claim to a moral high horse with this quote

     

    People that I buy from know that I've never reneged on a deal and I've always paid.

     

    which is slightly hypocritical considering your earlier slamming of people doing essentially the same thing

     

    And everybody got on their high horse saying that they'd never and have never done it. Sure.

     

    you've clearly suggested that you WOULD break a contract for the right amount of money (your $1000/$1 example you've kept throwing out there).

     

    No one here is blocking you because you have an "opinion" differing from theirs. :facepalm: Again, you're using that as a red herring to shift attention from the real reason you might be blocked for doing business with individuals here. If they're blocking you, I'll guess it's for the reason I bolded in my quote above. They -- nor I -- want to deal with the hassle of a buyer -- or seller -- who may or may not follow through with a purchase to buy/sell depending on the financial incentive for them to break a contract of sale. This has absolutely nothing to do with expressing your opinion - but are simply the ramifications that result from what the results for those sellers/buyers would be if you follow through on actions derived from that opinion, which your own words suggest strongly you would do (despite protestations to the contrary) through the use of your "examples". (shrug)

     

    Whatever.

     

    You are entitled to do it.

     

    So you've done it. You have your reasons.

     

    I don't agree with them because I didn't do anything wrong.

     

    But once again. Enjoy.
