scum on ebay...

It seems in your follow ups everyone is the con artist but you :rolleyes: I would certainly not buy from you. You seem to have alot of people complaining about your "laptops" or bricks should I say.

To be fair the the Original Poster, it looks like the buyer didn't fully read the item description!
It does state in the description that there is an extra £20 fee for the DVD/CD Rom combo to be added.
It also states that the Hard Drive has been removed and that the charger needs a cable to be bought.

Basically the buyer is correct that he's effectively bought a brick as it's not much use without the Hard Drive, but everything's in the description.

Additionally it says - "Sold as seen", "no guarantee" and "no money back" in the description.........

I guess it depends if the buyer received a literal or a metaphorical "brick".

True. In his forum moan he's said it was a brick and no laptop...... but he's also had a negative feedback for a similar purchase from the USA.... so I'd say it's a case of "both as bad as eachother".

The OP hasn't rushed back to defend himself!
Asking for a tracking number doesn't seem threatening to me!

I'd keep away from this buyer - seems as though every laptop transaction is shrouded with controversy!
