    Put us out of our misery.... What was engraved on the back??


    I guess "Happy 22nd Birthday Matt Love Bianca" as previously posted was too subtle for you then?:rotfl:

    reading that,it seems the OP was well aware of the power button issue
    also the op feels the need to mention a couple of scratches on the back,but not the honking great big engraving on it....

    I thought that was a random guess by KeithP. I don't think the OP has said what was engraved unless I misread somewhere (I've not registered on AV Forums so cannot see the links).


    EDIT:
    I just registered to have a look. :T

    It does sound like the OP tried to offload a broken item in the hope of scamming some poor chap out of a few quid.
    Hi i have a Jailbroken Ipod Touch 32GB 2nd Gen in great condition near mint condition with a few small scratches on the back nothing on the front and has a glass protector on, only selling as it doesnt get used that much and im saving for a IPad comes with box and cables

    With a broken power button and the engraving, I am simply bewildered why the victim has settled for anything less than a full refund.

    the OP sent an engraved ipod without telling the buyer
    how would you feel?


    I would ask them to return it, and I would then give them a full refund when I had the item back.

    What I wouldn't do is issue a refund before it was sent back, or a ludicrous amount of money being demanded for a partial refund! Are you saying you would????
    Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
    Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    you feel £30 is too much for a broken power button and undisclosed engraved(damaged) case?

    I do, you either want it or you don't.

    If you don't want it thats fine but you return it before you get a refund.

    This buyer has only made two [STRIKE]requests[/STRIKE] demands and they were;

    1- give me all my money back and i'll keep the item too...

    OR

    2- ok then just give me £30 back and let me keep the item.

    I'd say no, return for full refund or keep at price paid.
