I went out armed only with my 50mm. It's a lot more challenging than I thought it would be.

First one is some Colombian ship. The second is some building in the Rocks.

omg, I swear, someone is reversing the effects of Darwinism.

I sold an iPod Nano on eBay (for a record high price, might I add :D) and it did not come with headphones, there was no mention of headphones in the listing anywhere. I did not get them with the headphones.

Anyway, noob buyer is now threatening me because I did not include the headphones.

I purchased the IPOD from you for $187 but I could have purchased the 4th generation IPOD from Big W which comes all inclusive with headphones and USB and retails for $166. I purchased this IPOD as I believed as per the descriptive information attached to the advertisement that it included headphones and USB. As far as I can see, you have knowingly or unknowingly engaged in misleading and deceptive conduct which is illegal under the Trades Practices Act 1974. I would like you to send me the original headphone or to return my money and I will forward the IPOD back to you. Please let me know asap else I will be forced to report your actions as fraudulent and deceptive to EBAY.

My response:

I've studied law, you can't scare me with TPA1974. I am well aware of my rights and obligations under this; who has had more experience selling and buying on eBay than you? You have got six feedback; maybe you should learn to read the listings clearly prior to bidding. I am fully aware of what I am selling, I have placed my listing within the bounds of any and all legal jurisdictions. You can raise this with eBay and it was entirely your choice to purchase this iPod, I had no coercion in the matter, however rest assured that you will not win the case as all wording in the listing has been adhered to a T. I included a retractable USB cable as I had a spare, and as mentioned for the third time, I don't have any spare headphones, not to mention they are a hygiene issue to use secondhand headphones.

I've got a set of Audio Technica earphones and they've been the best set so far to clean out. ;)

I've a feeling he's been informed of his stupidity and has now got buyer's remorse.

I was wondering the same thing myself.

He now threatens he will leave negative feedback and report me to eBay. I told him, be my guest, this is YOUR fault for not reading the listing, and my photos are clearer than almost all other sellers on eBay, so you can't blame me.

Pretty much. He wanted a refund so I asked him, on what grounds? Refund would attract a restocking surcharge, and I'd give you a net refund of $140.

A refund? Only your mum can take your life back and I think she's glad to be rid of you.

When I sold my old nano last week, I clearly stated it wouldn't come with headphones. And I did it for a couple of reasons. One, the ones I had in the box were broken, you could see the wires at the headphone jack end. And two, they're used headphones. Who'd want used headphones?!

:lol: That's true.

Nope, I haven't sold it yet. One guy was considering it (but I think it was more of an "I wish I could afford it now") and another guy wrote last night that he's "seriously interested" but I haven't heard from him since. Those were both on OCAU by the way. You interested? :p
