The seller got back to me with this message
Just wondered if we could try anything else before the return..? It just seems strange that it chose this moment to stop after working perfectly for 15 years - I built this pc for my brother and he's finally upgraded! What were you planning to use it for ? Maybe we could try and sort it over the phone. I would try a different IEC mains cable in case the fuse has blown...
This is my reply i was going to send to him before i clickd your message on here
I don,t see this would help as i don,t have a smartphone,i assume you think i have.If i did you would be able to look at it on the phone.
As regurds the Pc Working when you sent it.One day something can work the next day it can stip working .nothing lasts forever.
I read all the stuff about you building it for your brother 15 years ago.Windows 98.I like most people have lots of mains leads all work i tried a number of them with the same result sweet FA.But ebay have got it in motion.all i have to do is download the labals. The sellers not given up at the end of the day it is not going to work over the phone.Plus the fact i have started packing it. |

Good.
Funny my First Sound Blaster ZXR card was proven DOA because I bought it in 2014 and didn't assemble it right away (I was poor then) when I plugged it in it wasnt detected, so i plugged it in another system and same exact thing happened. I was outside Amazons Return policy time so I Opened a ticket with Creative Labs and they sent me a bnib card with the volume controls/cables lol.
Point being is you have to be fast and know what you are doing to troubleshoot. But as each day creeps by the less chance of getting it returned. So anything from ebay is a automatic return if it doesn't work first shot.
You need to contact ebay about the messages you are receiving from this asshat to ensure you get your money back. Also screenshot every message if the idiot decides to kill their account.
Ebay works like an insurance company but you must be active with them because the time window gets smaller. If the idiot claims they never received it, you need to keep track of it, i presume the return lable has a tracking means. If they refuse to give the money back or claims it was never received, Ebay will give your money back and they will go after them for it via law suit. But Keep Ebay in the loop.
This person was deceptive.
