Complaint: Never sent payment its been over 2 months, dead beat bidder, dont trust!!!!!!!!!
About the time of this auction, my O/S crashed. I have since bought a new Dell. I have my old hard drive, but haven't installed it yet to transfer all data. The drive is still good, I'm just lazy. I vaguely recall a few emails between this seller & me. But I know I pay all auctions w/ Paypal. So I looked up my transactions, here's what I found:
Denied Payment (ID #3VC88240PE6950254) In reference to: 29X24003544667057 Related Transactions Date Type Status Details Gross Fee Net Jan. 19, 2004 Payment To Nicholas Emelity Denied Details -$16.00 USD $0.00 USD -$16.00 USD Jan. 19, 2004 Transfer From Credit Card Completed Details $16.00 USD $0.00 USD $16.00 USD Jan. 20, 2004 Denied Payment From Nicholas Emelity Completed ... $16.00 USD $0.00 USD $16.00 USD Jan. 20, 2004 Transfer To Credit Card Completed Details -$16.00 USD $0.00 USD -$16.00 USD ------------------------------------------------------ Name: Nicholas Emelity -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Amount: $16.00 USD -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Jan. 20, 2004 Time: 22:19:07 PST Status: Completed --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So for some reason, he denied my payment. I can't recall why, but I'll find out. I haven't heard from him since, and totally forgot about the auction. That part is my fault, I guess. I'll own up to it. But leaving me negative feedback like that? I'll let you all know when I get my e-mails back from the old hard drive. If I failed to pay this auction, it was because of unlucky circumstances & I would have done anything to make it right.
