wait ti ll the good games come out....

sony's too strong to let it off the hook. look at the xbox360 when it came out...not that great, but now it's strong.


btw, you think that's bad hansel? I got ripped for a $10,000 rolex i sold on e-bay by one of those scammers..in fact, a large organization. They hacked/phished someone's account with like 1000 feedback, changed all their info and bid on my shit. They then set up like 3-4 of their own "escrow sites" and basically fabricated every part of the transaction, including the "buyers" deposit into the escrow account. The sites, people etc looked super legit too...
i was desperate at the time because it was a dire situation and i needed the money....had i been more clear headed i may have done more research and been more aware, but oh well.

I'm really tired of eBay. I imagine you are too, x 10,000.

there's no way......i had the police involved and everything.they had their tracks covered well. i think they did this to alot of people.
ebay refunded me a portion of my money, but not much.

oh well, live and learn.

funny thing is i BOUGHT that rolex from making a killing on e-bay in the late 90's, early 2000....and lost it the same way lolol.

hansel did this "buyer" have little to no feedback or prior transactions? I think there's an option to only have users with 10 feedback to bid on your items...check into it. This happened to me with some pricey items before I used this option...fuggin bastids.

I have the option set to notify me of buyers with 1 or less feedback, but this account was private and -3 feedback, plus they used the buy it now so it probably got through undetected somehow.
