riddle350 Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Hey Everyone. Do not buy from Mike Simonetti ebay id: allovermyface I won Strike Anywhere's Exit English from him on Jan 20th. I paid on Jan 21st. I still have not received this item. I sent him a message on Feb 13th asking if he had shipped it yet and all he said was "if you paid it's shipped". When I asked if he had a tracking number he never responded. He has a 98.4% rating but if you read through his negative feedback this seems to be something that happens often on his auctions that end at a low price. BEWARE!

riddle350 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 I sent him a message a little while ago. If i don't hear back by tomorrow night or if he's a prick I'm filing a claim. It's the fact that he is rude and has shitty communication that I'm really angry. If he was like "sorry dude it took awhile for me to ship it out, it should be there soon" I wouldn't make a big deal about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilstrombone Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 that sucks. That happened to me recently with a bane 7". He said he shipped it out and three weeks went by, when I said I would file a claim he said it was on its way. I got it two days later and it was sent air mail. Post dated on the day I said I would file the claim. His excuse for why it might be taking a long time was that he was all the way in california. I live in seattle. I can spit and hit california from here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviewonderbread Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Uhhh, shit! I just won a Lifetime 7" in one of his auctions, and used paypal immediately. I'll try to reserve judgment, but this is definitely not something I want to hear. How long must you wait before filing a paypal claim?

afireinside86 Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Usually Ebay says that if your item hasn't arrived within 30 days you should take actions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stefan Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Filing a claim against Simonetti is like a vinyl-via-the-internet rite of passage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Well, his record label is called TROUBLEMAN -- this seems like a perfect case of truth in advertising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddle350 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 so I'm just bumping this again just to make sure everyone sees this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
