This site is getting somewhat frustrating. I don't know if more eBay people are coming over, but these are the most demanding buyers ever. And the two sellers I dealt with were terrible. I sold a whole with all the accompanying gadgets and crap for 50% lower than the average price it goes for and listed it "AS IS/with problems" and the guy is hitting me up for money. It was a Roland S330 with the RC100 controller, screen, disks, and cables. It booted up and read disks when I shipped it but I advertised it "AS IS" and he wants me to buy a new disk drive (which costs $40). I sold the whole set for 70 and paid over half of the 35$ shipping. I just wanted it to go to somebody that would repair it and use it. I know the RC100 goes for 100-150 by itself. I dunno, advice? I've never had to deal with this before.

That's pretty absurd -- and also the reason I only sell on ILF, and (almost) exclusively to people who actually post here.

I'll be more diligent on selling here now. I was, but I just got impatient with all the stuff sitting around the house/garage and wanted out of the way before remodeling 1/3 on the house. I don't know. The problem with these feedback ratings and stuff is that the buyer is right and I am a scum bag/should loose out (because one bad feedback is the freaking end). I don't know what to say to the dude...if I say no, with good reason (and my listing desc), then I get negative feedback. If I give in I, I loose like $380 on about a $400 investment (even though I know I could never sell it for the money I put into it, but geez).

Fuck it, if they give me a negative, then fuck reverb. I don't need it anyway because, like D.o.S. said, ILF.

Call his bluff and tell the guy to return it for a full refund and see what he says. eBay and now Reverb are full of people trying to get discounts after a sale or have buyer's remorse. This happens to my friends' music store all the time, and they say return it, no partial refunds, and people usually back off, or in rare cases get Reverb involved (which can go either way). But looking at your listing: https://reverb.com/item/572642-roland-s ... and-rc-100, you provide plenty of information to ascertain that this thing doesn't work 100% of the time (in fact 90% is the stated amount, haha), so it looks like the guy is trying to pull a fast one.

Ha! you found it... haha. I just told him no. I will, I guess send him another message and say send it back if he wants a refund. He has fiddled with it and taken it apart...so my guess is that he will break it (as revenge). I dunno. I forgot how much I listed it for. 75 haha, just checked the shipping too...it was 40 not 35...but whatever.

Hopefully Reverb will actually handle the situation correctly instead of eBay's "haha fuck the seller" method.

Which is why I left there. I had a guy buy a 5 dollar randall footswitch on there and he claimed it didn't work. Shipping costed more than the item, so I just said "hell with it, here is 5 dollars" and ebay gave me one of those new bad marks. Lame. So I left (this was before joining ILF). I just hope this dude lets it go so I don't get reverb involved.

The first seller I bought something from kept e-mailing me over a two week period saying "Hey, I got busy at work, I will ship it tomorrow" (three or four times). Then I get it, finally and the reverb guts are out of the case. Easy fix, but annoying. Second and only other time I bought on there was my second guitar and the neck got so out of place/adjustment during shipping it was unplayable. I fixed it by reseting/shimming and all that junk but again, annoying. I just sent that dude a message basically telling him to learn to pack.

I sold to neonblack on there. Most of the buyers have been awesome though. Genuinely nice people that are excited to talk/trade/get gear. I have also received some of the most awesome feedback that I could imagine. One idiot can ruin something I guess.
