- Response to Mr. Ho's posting:
-
- I shall NOT go down to your level, never ever! I posted the facts, and your own
- response was calling me names and insulting me.
-
- I told you I would post the story as soon as it became clear that you are not
- willing to help solve the problems.
-
- The items you sent me were partly broken, partly irrelevant, and nothing
- except for one cartridge can be verified to be in working condition. This is
- in contrast with your claim of "brand new", "working perfectly", etc. You have
- told me yourself (after sending the package, of course) that you have not
- personally tested those items. And many of them come from other, unrelated
- systems (and they are partly broken!).
-
- All the facts are in my original post.
-
- I was not upset by the defective goods, but by the promises you have made prior
- to the deal and by the complete lack of readiness to resolve the problem (except
- for your offer to buy parts for one minor cable and build it "if you can
- remember how to wire them").
-
- The 75% refund I asked for was based on the fact that 75% of the items you sent
- were either defective, partial, or came from a completely different system.
-
- What I or anybody else who is (was) going to use that equipment do in their
- spare time is not your business. Besides, who else but you would call a word
- processor "video game" ? :-) It was not purchased for game playing purposes,
- and even if it was- this is not your business, really. Moreover, check your
- own posts glorifying this equipment prior to the sale, and compare them to
- what you tell the netters now!
-
- Last but not least, you know very well that I passed another pending deal in
- order to take your, only after I checked very carefully with you and you
- gave me your assurance (more than once) about the condition of the system.
