OMG that is rediculous, I think the worst part is that some idiot bought it

The seller really needs to go back to school, that spelling and grammer is just downright atrociuos.

Yeah it is "rediculous" and the "grammer" leaves much to be desired.

Hey you can't make fun of my spelling and grammar, it's against the rules. LOL, at least you could tell what I was spelling, I normally use spellcheck, but work has blocked FireFox and I can't use the spellcheck mod anymore since I'm stuck with IE.

I foresee a paypal dispute in this seller's future.
Ah, the buzzing. Like a thousand bees, locusts, no, wasps! A credit card company will be called!

[PIHB]

i sent the guy a message explaining to him that the seller had false information and told him what it was he really bought. hope he didnt pay

[timego]

I've learned my lesson...it's best to call the credit card company....it saves so much hassel...also, paypal can't F with you.

[NYRANGERS]

It's amazing that people dont have a clue what they are buying.
Poor bastard...

[nugent]

I always cringe when I see something like this and pray they aren't from MS.

YES! St. Louis! The dude even put his picture on his my eBay profile! The stoolie, errrr, I mean buyer, is in Australia!

I am selling one for less than that maybe I need to put it on Ebay, spell things horribly, lie like a rug about what it does, and then ship it off to some guy in a foreign country...

BTW is there a way to filter out anyone who sells a single DVD with shipping over $4 on Ebay? getting tired of the folks that are charging $20 to media mail a DVD
