I wish i had opened mine and taken a picture of the inside contents. Otherwise if you are selling it, they open it and its missing parts or they take the parts you are not out the statue and shipping both ways. I don’t own many statues nor sell them often but consider it an expensive lesson ![]()
I didn’t realize statues had to be assembled. I always figured they were one solid piece.
Shows you how many I own (zero).
If you advertised it as factory sealed, I can see that being a welcome sign for scammers, for sure.
Here’s one way to negotiate. Ignore my three price drops and keep throwing the same number out. Then finish strong after I grow tired of the dance:
It’s surely one way to go. Blocked.
Report that ass
I love how people try to use the fact that they’re paying shipping as part of the negotiation. Meanwhile you’re offering a price from what I can tell is $20 below the lowest copy on eBay.
These are the people that will continue to try to nickel and dime you after they have the book in hand.
After I lowered the price three times, it dawned on me that this feels like a buyer that will screw me over somehow once he gets the book. That’s why I tried to shut it down.
Yep. There’d be something magically wrong with it once he got it.
The first lowball offer should be the only red flag warning I need… I don’t even participate after that. They can keep messaging too if they want, they’ll grow tired of talking to themselves eventually.
Because you’re a little b!tch
I’ve had some interesting eBay experiences but you got me beat on that one haha. I just don’t understand people.
You gotta be careful when talking to people online if you ask me. Could you imagine if @Joe was a wee bit on the crazy side. What would stop him from accepting the offer and then he replies with something like… now I know where you live, we’ll see who’s the real b1tch when I’m done with you!!! ![]()
That would actually be rad to do. Get them address. Cancel the order. Send them a horse head.
I mean, I’m definitely a wee bit crazy. I have 7,000 comics in my basement.
But, I’m not the violent, murderous type of crazy. I do wish life provided a bit more consequence for people that think they can act this way toward other people. I did report the conversation to eBay, but I’m sure they’ll do zip about it.
7,000. Aww. Isn’t that cute. I have 50,000+
Who’s the back stock king here on CHU? I’m guessing Anthony takes it with 50k.
And got me tied up down there with them in the basement… you’re beyond crazy! ![]()
This reminds me also why I’m super nice to customer service people when things aren’t going so great for me. I’ve done my fair share of customer service roles early in my career and wasn’t paid nearly enough for the emotional abuse it endures most of the time…
But remember these rules if you think yelling or getting angry at those in customer service when you deal with them:
- It’s likely not their fault in what’s wrong.
- They’re getting shit on all day most likely and getting shit pay.
- They have most if not a lot of your personal information.
- You don’t know them, they could be crazy and do something with that personal information of yours.
Those are some of the prime reasons I try to make their day better even if I’m not having a good day cause that’s why we’re usually contacting customer service, something went wrong. Nobody calls when everything is going good and these people are dealing with drama after drama all day long while working. Being nice always results in you getting way better customer service out of them cause if you can lift their mood in feeling good, it’s just gonna carry over in how they acknowledge your issue cause if everyone is mean to them, then I don’t blame them for having zero empathy for your issue.
I had a running count at one point but decided I didn’t really want to know the actual amount
about 30 long boxes and 15-20 short boxes left, had more before I decided a few years back to eBay them while I still had the chance.
I’ll have to estimate what I have based on boxes. But O don’t think I have 10k.
