Stop having a misanthropic conversation without my input, man I hate people.

Wrong place for this really, but I have some eBay related humble pie to eat.

I bought a vintage Brooks leather jacket from a dude in Michigan, it arrives and I find that one of the size adjuster buckles is missing and the straps are just hanging.

So I message him about my disgust, what a massive error not to mention in the listing, obviously I'm not happy and I want my money back etc….

Message comes back less than an hour later simply saying "Apologies for the inconvenience, I have been busy and must have made a mistake. Please keep the jacket and I have sent you a full refund of all your charges."

Feeling slightly less misanthropic now.

that's the way a pro handle this stuff, errors happen, be a man, stay behind and do the right…

Had the same feeling when RP shipped me the IHBx01RAWs for free… Just gave them back to my dad btw: plenty cold enough now!..

It's tough when the ice around your heart melts just a little isn't it?  :-\

[Seul]

Really unfamiliar feeling… Almost rang for an ambulance...

Ruh roh. Sold an expensive pair of sneakers to help finance my computer purchase. Sent them FedEx, signature required. Checked FedEx's site…

BOYNTON BEACH, FL
Left at front door. Package delivered to recipient address - release authorized

LEFT AT FRONT DOOR! WTF!!

[urbanwoodsman]

They have to authorize Fedex to do that. You should be safe.

Left at the front door? That's nothing. I ordered a record (as an investment). One week… nothing. Two weeks... nothing, starting to get irritated decided that I'll send an shout-y email on the Monday. Sunday, get back from work and there's a mud encrusted cardboard box on the table. Turns out that some ****  had left it under the front door mat!! and two housemates had unwittingly been treading on it for at least a week...

I was not happy.

[zwer]

Okay, MP, that's a much better rant than mine. I'm just a nervous Nellie, is all.

First package delivered to ucla and it's missing. Now I got to track it down and find out whoever the fuck "h halls" is…..hopefully this isn't going to be a common occurrence

[natehate]

MorP im curious what the record was?

Currently in Houston it's 82F (28C) and 78% humidity, so it's muggy as an overcrowded Russian sauna.  This is the time of year that I hate Texas weather the most.  It is not natural to sweat this much in mid-October.

[Megatron1505]

Suck it up buttercup.

[Seul]

I'm feeling you though, C… It's 12C° here and I'm finally recovering from a long summer... Hang in there

Trade ya?

We have had a torrential downpour since 6am, we're just as wet as you are sweet cheeks

Rain > Heat.

[mclaincausey]

I reserve the right to shame you all when it hits -40F here come February.

Rain > Sweat

@Seul:

Rain > Heat.

This is the right answer.
