[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

omnedon:

I went into PayPal, and there still seems to be no option for me to mark the item as returned, so releasing Jason's refund is simply not up to me. However, as soon as PayPal or eBay requests any info from me, I will respond in the affirmative so Jason can get the refund he has been waiting for.

Please read what I type. I've already answered your question.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

Good news. UPS returned. I paid the man, and it's here. Exactly as Jason (turbografxfan) said, he returned everything, and did not accept my offer of keeping the (not included in the auction) RAU-30 or his choice of any of the games. He returned everything. He did not make it clear until well after he placed the eBay claim that he was going to return some or all of the items.

I went into PayPal, and there still seems to be no option for me to mark the item as returned, so releasing Jason's refund is simply not up to me. However, as soon as PayPal or eBay requests any info from me, I will respond in the affirmative so Jason can get the refund he has been waiting for.

Inspection and testing:

The AV cord video output is now faulty. Audio works, but video does not. It did work prior to ship, so it's clear to me that either in shipping or in handling the cord suffered it's final flex, and developed a short. Very irritating, for me and for Jason.

With any game inserted, the unit exhibits a monocolour screen, sometimes grey, white, green, beige or blue. This is the exact same sort of behaviour any NEC console exhibits when it can't see the HuCard, or when no HuCard is inserted. I have ruled out an issue with the cartridge slot, as all contacts are in good shape, and have full continuity to the board traces. This means the problem is not caused by a foreign object trapped in the HuCard slot, damaged slot, or dirty games. There also does not seem to be issues with the board traces either, and no cracks. It *could* be cold solder joints where the IC is soldered to the board, or even IC failure. *If* I decide to repair this SuperGraFX, it's not a simple fix.

I was indeed hoping it was as simple as a packing popcorn particle jammed in the cart slot, but it is not. This SupergraFX is sick. My favourite game included in this auction was Ninja Spirit, so I had tested the most time with that game prior to listing. Frankly, I am at a loss as to why this unit no longer works. It definitely does not work.

So here is how we got to this point:

1)I tested my SuperGraFX.

2)I listed my SuperGraFX.

3)I posted on this forum that my SuperGraFX was up for auction.

4)I offered a freebie to any forum member who won to solicit bids.

5)A forum member did so, and won the auction.

6)I was paid a few days later via PayPal. I shipped the next day, and sent along the track info.

7)On August 31 the buyer misreads his correct tracking information, and thinks it says it has been delivered when it has not, and is simply at US customs.

8)The buyer sends difficult to understand messages to me asking why I keep sending wrong track info, and begins to get confrontational.

9)The buyer starts making noise in the 'shout' about possibly being scammed by low post count forum member 'omnedon' (me).

10)I respond with forum PM and eBay PM with 'correct' track info, which is the same info as before.

11)Buyer threatens to make a claim if I don't start being 'straight' with him. This is a problem, as I haven't been dishonest or incorrect.

12)I clear the air in this thread, even posting when the tracking says it has arrived safely.

13)Buyer messages me through eBay that day and says QUOTE:

yeah man I got that shit!!! thnx so much.. Im so sorry for doubting you. I will let everyone on pcenginefx that your a great seller.if anyone has any questiones concerning you as seller please refer them to me. thnx again turbogrfxfan

and I respond that I would appreciate his positive feedback whenever he is ready.

14)The next day it seems unlike his previous statement, that he indeed did not have it yet, and is testing it now. The unit does not work, and all sorts of negative posts, drama, vitriol, and a youtube video I still have not bothered to watch are posted by many but not by me. I simply post that he obviously needs a refund, and simply needs to return it, and I would refund him in full. More drama and vitriol, and deleted drunken posts by the buyer.



So there we go. I'm just about ready to wash my hands of this thread. A sad fact of the matter is there is NO business case for offering services for NEC consoles. The demand is too low, and the labour expense on audio issues make them unprofitable to service. I'm not a real NEC console fan either, and that's why I never posted much. I used to play Blazing Lazers at a family members house back in the day, but my favourite COMPILE shooter was Power Strike for the SMS. It's been out of love for classic gaming in general that I've continued to offer NEC console service, not any personal attachment to the platform. I've been very busy lately, and it's been compromising my time with my family (I have 5 kids). I've had to reduce the numbers of systems I'm willing to service for mail order for the last few years, and now I'm going to add all NEC consoles to this list. Shortly, I will update my website to indicate that mail order service will not be an option for NEC consoles. I'll continue to take local business for those consoles, so a few people per year in my area will be able to get their consoles worked on.  For mail order service I'm going to recommend that people come to people like chop5 in this community. What I know of the nature of these collector communities, is that few good deeds go unpunished, so I wish people like him all the very best. D-lite is gone, and now soon so will I be.

I regret two things about this transaction. The above #3) , and the fact that the SuperGraFX did not work for my former customer.

You all get the community you deserve. Some of you will take that to mean that it will improve as soon as I cease to post. Some of you may not. Whatever.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

UPS has attempted to deliver the parcel and missed me. I believe they may try again today. I do have the door notice indicating they did not leave it in my secure parcel area, since it has $49.56 brokerage charges due upon receipt. They will not leave the parcel without full payment from me.

I've gone into the PayPal claim turbografxfan initiated. Since it is a claim, I am not able to release the funds, as the funds are not mine to release. Only PayPal can release the funds, and they will do so only after the tracking indicates arrival, and I acknowledge the return. I've tried acknowledging the return (since I have a UPS door card and everything) prior to delivery, but PayPal will not allow it.

This means any further delay on releasing turbografxfan's full refund including shipping costs to him, is PayPal's responsibility, not mine. Had this been a simple forum style transaction, he would already have his refund. Since it is not, my hands are tied by the rules and the claim status set by PayPal. I cannot release funds that are not in my hands.

Hopefully, UPS attempts a second delivery today. If they do not, I will not be present at the mailing address until after 3pm for the next few days, and may very well miss them again. I will try and contact UPS to arrange a specific delivery or pick up time, so I can pay them their brokerage charges, and hopefully speed along turbografxfan's refund.

Had communication with the buyer been a bit more smooth. I would have counselled him on a cheaper way to return ship the parcel, at similar speed, with tracking and insurance (for PayPal and his guaranteed refund), that would not have cost me an additional $50 upon receipt. However, that was not to be.

I'm sure PayPal will release his funds eventually.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

^^I have no idea what to make of that.

The part that I 'had no idea what to make of' has since been deleted, I imagine by the poster. See explanation above.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

^^I have no idea what to make of that.

It does however elucidate my earlier point. I have gone out of my way to not use disrespectful words towards anybody here (which makes me rather unique in this thread), and have outlined possibilities only. I *think* turbo thinks I insulted him by pointing out that the way it was shipped may have had something to do with a third party shipping it, but I have no issue with that at all. It is a pertinent fact. I'm just glad it got shipped in time, as the timeline was tight, hence my reminder.

The good news is if anybody does not like the way I post on this forum, you will soon no longer have to stress about it. I have a great sense of this community, and will react accordingly once I am sure turbografxfan has his refund.

As far as my postcount goes, all of my posts are on topic, and are clear, and contain thread related content. I moderate forums in other communities, and understand how moderation works very well. You can blame yourselves for my growing postcount. I truly could not care less. I do think obsession with postcount in this transaction (not my obsession) is a solid 33% of the problem here.

Completely fictional example of nobody, just a composite of postcount obsessed forum dwellers I've run across over the years:

"oh noes!! he only haz twenny posts! I don't undertsand the last messige I got, I must be getting SCMMMED!"

Assuming I get a negative eBay feedback after offering freebies, and refunding in full immediately (including ship $$!) with no delay or complications caused by brokerage expenses THIS THREAD will be very handy for my rebuttal.

If I get no feedback at all, (I do not want and have not earned a positive) my respect level for turbografxfan will increase in a big way from it's current level.

Of course it's his call. I'll be ok for the next 7000 transactions either way. I of course hope that he takes into account I've done everything I could except not be myself. You don't have to like someone to respect their conduct. It's a complex concept, I know.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

I agree with you nectarsis, in that the literate will be able to read the facts for themselves. Your interpretation is yours.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

Nope.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

No worries. Cost of doing business. It's just one of those things.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

The PayPal comments will have no effect. It's the Customs form that was filled out (by your Mom?) at UPS where it would have made a difference in the brokerage charges.

There is no way she could have known really. A different kind of seller may refuse the parcel to avoid the fees. I'm prepared to lose ship costs and brokerage fees in the vicinity of $100 on this. At this point you getting your refund is my top priority. Everything else is secondary.

Cost. Of. Doing. Business.

I've been given a pretty rough ride around here. Some posting in this thread have not given me the benefit of the doubt, instantly assuming bad intent. Regardless of what I am called, and what assumptions are made about my motives, this is very simple to me.

The buyer was not satisfied with the items. The buyer requested a refund. I complied immediately after the refund was requested. I've made every effort to address the inconvenience the issue with the SuperGraFX caused. Due to circumstances beyond anyone's control, I will be forced to pay $35 to $65 to make sure turbografx get's his refund (including shipping) in a timely way.

What posters like nectarsis have to spew about this is irrelevant. What is relevant, is that if you do a transaction with OSG, you can expect the same level of prompt response to any issues. Customer satisfaction above profitability. Even when there is no hope of saving my reputation on a given forum. This is because doing the right thing is more important, than the distracting stuff in this thread.

Anyone who considers that an insufficient service level, I would strongly recommend they spend their dollars elsewhere.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

No worries. Cost of doing business. It's just one of those things.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

I now have tracking info from UPS.

Unfortunately it was sent back as a sold item to me, with a value of $200. Since it was not marked as broken, I can expect to pay between $35 and $65 in duty charges at the door when it arrives. My only recourse to keep from paying the charge is to refuse the parcel.

I of course will not do that. I will pay the excess (and erroneous) charges, to ensure turbografxfan gets his refund in a timely fashion.

It's what good sellers do, when the unforeseen occurs.

[Feedback / Re: Feedback Forum?]

turbografxfan:

a feedback forum is a good idea but i feel it would just be a shiitting ground and people could really damage someone that didnt deserve it.  i dont know  maybe just keep a count of thumbs up or down w no comments

Quoted for truth. I can't describe how strongly I agree with turbografxfan on that one.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

PayPal has set a return date tracking deadline on turbografxfan's claim of September 12. Today is September 8th, and I have not yet seen any tracking info, or communication regarding the return of the items. Neither has PayPal.

The buyer is required to provide tracking information confirming that they shipped the merchandise to you by Sep 12, 2010. If we don't receive this information, the claim will be closed and a refund will not be issued.

I'm happy to grant more time to turbografxfan for the return. However, the PayPal claim that he has initiated is not controlled by me. The funds and the release of the funds is not under my control either. I sincerely hope that it is already in transit, and I (and PayPal) simply have not received any communication indicating such.

*If* I have any influence on  extending the timeline of PayPal's claim, I will gladly grant it. If I do not, I cannot and will not accept any responsibility for turbografxfan's ability or inability to comply with his own claim, and what PayPal does with the funds.

To make it abundantly clear, I have found communication with turbografxfan to be sporadic, and unpredictable. Hopefully, I'm simply lacking communication at this point, and he is doing what he said he would do. I have no indication either way as of this posting of any activity on his part.

For those of you looking to punch a hole in my honest motives, I will spell it out. This is a reminder to turbografxfan to make sure he returns the auction item, so his return goes smoothly.  If my motives were otherwise, I would not remind him while he still has 4 days. I won't PM turbografxfan anymore for my own reasons, so this thread is it.

It should be easy to retape the box, and place a label on it Jason.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

It's easy to make you do things.

Anyway, in the chat at 16:37, I shared my opinion that without consequences, I could be scammed. And at that time turbo had NOT agreed to return a damn thing. Just demanded refund.

Just earlier in chat (go find it nect!!) turbo told me for the first time that he would return the lot in it's entirety. That's great, and I told him so. I believe him until given reason not to.

Until he told me he would return it, I had no idea. turbo's ability to communicate via text is sub par IMO. Anyone else reading this thread in the future can decide for themselves what they think.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

You didn't because you couldn't.

I always imagined a dogpile would be heavier. There is only a few of you.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

Please quote me where I said it was "inevitable that he would scam me".

Prove your credibility.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

You seem to think you have great insight into my motivations.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

Thank you.

It's now clear to me that at least two of you have no idea why I keep my facts clear in this thread. Don't worry about it. It doesn't really concern any of you.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

I have no SuperGrafX, games, or payment.

You see, I went to the PO, pulled money out of my wallet, and shipped a parcel. That money has not been replaced by PayPal. It also will not, as I have authorized a full refund.

Is that helpful?

As stated earlier you WERE paid.  Paypal holding it is irrelevant.  Turbo is going to be out $ as he has to ship your broken stuff back. 

I believe I said that. Read what you quoted.

eBay holds all funds for international sellers with under 100 selling feedback.

Prior to this transaction, I had less than 100 seller feedback. I now have more than 100, so for future transactions, they will lift the hold.

The hold is irrelevant to me, as I would have been refunding regardless, as turbografxfan was not satisfied. Money's not mine until customer is happy. This customer is not happy.

And is also not happy with a full and immediate refund upon return. And is not happy with an offer of free game and hardware. And was not happy with accurate track information. The sense of unhappy is overwhelming actually, and inconsolable. All I can do is refund. Expectations beyond that are interesting to read and post. The logic game is fascinating.

I don't think this thread is the actual forum nect. I think there would be an announcement or something.

""and I could quite possibly scam you?""

You could. I don't anticipate that, but as your responses evolve (publicly now- thanks again) I don't get a better and better feeling.

Indeed, I have not 'won' this transaction. I had hoped you would benefit from it, but I was unable to do it. All that's left is to make the best of it.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

@turbografxfan

Did you ask me a question?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

Thanks, again turbogrfaxfan.

[Feedback / Re: Feedback Forum?]

I'm leaning yes.

Can I go first?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

nectarsis: Of course your rep is over and as YOU already stated you could care less...your sale is done so you have no need for it.  Fly by night for a buck..pathetic.""

What sale? I've not been paid. I will not be paid. I'm also out shipping, and currently a SuperGrafX and games.

What buck?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

I can do nothing to change it, and fortunately will be able to carry on, somehow. 

You can give him a refund in full for the item and shipping both ways, like a quality seller would do when they sold an item that arrived inoperable.  You just choose not to do that so you can save a few dollars.

Let's not forget the RAU-30 and game of his choice I offered to let him keep.

I've actually done the above before (I've had to exercise OSG warranty through mail order on rare occasions) It's something I would choose to do based on the circumstances of the issue, my opinion of the customer, and the likelihood of retrieving a positive outcome from the transaction.

Refunding the cost of the auction has never been a contention. As soon as turbogrfxfan told me he had an issue, I immediately offered a refund with extras. To go over and above the terms of the transaction is at my personal discretion. I've gone over and above before.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

Thank You turbogrfxfan. Really, thanks.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

That's it for a guy with a real postcount? no "lulz"?

I describe possibilities, and plans to deal with them. turbografxfan has done the same, but with less clarity, and more hyperbole. I have my reasons for my concerns. Just because I don't share why, doesn't mean the reasons don't exist. I'll let the readers decide why I would keep my share civil.

I do care a great deal for my rep. That's why I continue to post and try to keep the facts at least in this thread. Any intelligent person who is willing to give this any thought at all, should be able to figure out why I might want the facts as I see them to exist in this thread. How the thread goes with the forum denizens has become irrelevant to me here. It's the content from me that counts.

However, I am well aware that my rep on this particular forum is over. I can do nothing to change it, and fortunately will be able to carry on, somehow. 

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

nectarsis:
"Just inferring ONE OF US is being dishonest as a possibility, either you're trying to say he is, or you yourself are...not very reassuring, or even professional eh?"

Is there a fourth possibility I missed?

Hmmm.

1) item was shipped working, no longer works for unknown reason
2) I am lying and knowingly shipped a broken system in a high profile way on a public forum
3) turbografxfan is lying and is getting ready to scam me with a bait and switch, a common eBay ripoff of sellers

FWIW I lean towards number 1. I realize that the friendly denizens here have already voiced their opinion on which it is, based on the 'evidence'.

Insinuating he would do a bait and switch is just tacky, and shady IMO (and if you hadn't noticed more than a few others agree). 

#2 You sold iton Ebay..yep no sellers EVER act shady on there right?

You have shown a complete lack of good communication, lack of decency, and act like an elitist jackass who just shrugs off teh truth.  Oh well carry on, you're rep is OBVIOUSLY solid here ;)

I've sold a lot on eBay. Lots of feedback. This one I will likely get from turbografxfan will likely stand out.

I've not insinuated anything. Haven't attacked ANYBODY. Look for quotes, and paste them in. I'll wait.

I have however communicated with turbografxfan in eBay messages, and PM's. I've dealt with literally thousands of customers. Every once in a while I run across one that I would prefer not have as a customer. He is not the first, will likely not be the last. I can live with my 0.1% unhappy customer rate track record and still sleep ok.

Considering how he has dealt with his likely legitimate issue with my auction item in PM's and on the forums, I feel no need to draw out the transaction one second longer than required. While I doubt this will be acknowledged by him, I'm sure that he would like to terminate his transaction with OSG as quickly as possible as well. That's all I have left to give him, so as is my policy, I will give him what I can.

Meanwhile back to the fun! Have at me!

Omnedon, what if he just finds someone to fix it for cheap from someone here on the forums?  would you be willing to help him with the costs?

No. I have already offered refund, plus ship, plus extras, above auction terms, knowing full well I will likely be given a negative ANYWAY.

No more PM's turbografxfan. You are misrepresenting my messages here in public. I did not call you or anybody dishonest. I simply said that since I tested the unit, either something occurred during shipping, or ONE OF US is being dishonest.

This is a very simple problem, with a simple grown up solution. Since I have not yet been paid, I prefer a refund through PayPal.

Simple.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

That's surprising. My apologies for the inconvenience.

Only one thing to do. Return it. Keep the RAU-30 and one game of your choice. I will refund your sale price, and cost of initial shipping as a bonus over and above the auction terms.

Let me know when it ships. Insure it and track it. I sent you ship info through eBay.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

It was stated.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

""So take the  told to me up with him.  I was looking out for a fellow member.""

Ask turbografxfan how many messages we exchanged last nite. He got ahold of me easily and quickly. Facts or first hand knowledge be damned!  You needed to share!

Thanks for the help. I can't express how I appreciate your help. I really am at a loss how to express it.

You may or may not like the way I respond. However, I respond with facts, and first hand knowledge. No attacks or questioning of anybody's rep without cause.

That would be smarmy and dickish IMO.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

 Bzzzt. Wrong. I sent one tracking number only. Ask him to check his messages. (I already did)

My post was just the info pasted from USPS tracking. No "method" there.

Am I being dickish by wanting the facts accurate? I take my rep serious.

Did you buy it? Do you have two member id's here?
 

You read a lot into text. I can use more smilies....

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

Two things:

1) text is limited, and it's very easy to draw your own interpretation as to intent. The above was informational. O:)

2) I have sent one and only one tracking number to turbografxfan. The one above. The only mistake I made in regards to tracking number was questioning myself in the first place. Apparently I've only sent one tracking number, the above correct one. When I checked into turbografxfan's concern like any good seller would, I assumed I had made a mistake. I was mistaken about being wrong, I had not made a mistake.
O:)

I had assumed that since turbografxfan asserted that he must have the wrong tracking number because he said it was tracked as delivered when he did not have it. Therefore he must have the wrong track number. I apologized prematurely. My guess is turbografxfan simply misread the San Francisco customs line as 'delivered'. An easy mistake if one just does a cursory read. I assumed that before one would raise the spectre of an eBay claim, one would be sure that they were correct. I assumed incorrectly.

  O:)

So, the good news is, I was correct in the first place, and it has been delivered to the address I was given through eBay and PayPal. I also have all of the paperwork to prove the insurance, and delivery confirmation.

If being compulsive about careful shipping, careful tracking, and fast communication about issues makes me douchey in your books, I guess douchey I am.

O:)

HNow, I hope turbografxfan is pleased with the set, the price, and the games. If he isn't, all he has to do is let me know. If we can't sort it out, he can always return it for a full refund. Earning feedback is hard work. I aim to earn it. I can see why you might see that as douchey, but you are reading me wrong IMO.

Anybody from here win? The winner has not messaged me about the RAU-30...

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: My SuperGraFX on eBay- no reserve (PCE games included)]

The SuperGrafX and X'Eye end in less than 24 hours, and both could still be a bargain for a lucky buyer.

If a forum member wins the auction, I will throw in a free RAU-30 (loose-I just found in my storage) with the SuperGraFX. Just identify yourself as a forum member with your forum userid in an eBay message to me at the auction end.

For the uninitiated the the permutated world of PCEngine add-ons, the RAU-30 allows the SuperGraFX to work with the PCE CD expansion unit. (PCE CD add on NOT included)

Good Luck!

Thanks! Good luck to those who can give my collection good homes.

Nope. I'm selling only, no trades. Collection is going away, not growing.

Sorry about the duplicate post. I got a strange timed out error.

It's in great condition, and is a fantastic PCEngine starter set, with some PCEngine imports included.

Check out my other auctions for some neat video game stuff. My entire collection is going on eBay.

Doing auctions 'right' (by my definition) is very hard work. Lots of clear pics, from many angles, and detailed lists with specific detailed descriptions is time consuming. I have a lot of repsect for the power sellers on eBay who put the same level of effort into their auctions. Generic auction pics and cookie cutter descriptions are the way to beg for trouble.

Thanks for looking.

More of my collection up on the block today. Low starts for the most part, and as always real auctions, with no reserves.

Indeed. I was thinking Turbochips, but that's strictly NA terminology, and there is nothing North American about this batch of games.
