My turn today.

Was about to order a batch of PCBs from the nice man in China, when I noticed one of my component footprints was completely wrong due to my inability to do simple maths. ::)

That could have been a waste of time and money.

Demon Tweeks today. Chasing up where my egay order is, they replied telling me they had listed them on behalf of another company, who claimed to have them in stock, but didn't.

Indeed, and I think everyone knows that.  But this was Demon Tweaks, selling stuff (allegedly) on behalf of Sealey UK....

I think my BS detector might have activated.

I thought eBay was full of retards and mongs and, therefore, was off limits?

It frequently is, but I stupidly though Demon Tweeks would be hassle free.  Silly me.

Still, they turned up today, so that's all sorted as well :)


Not sure what sort of feedback to leave...  ...I'm not shy to be brutally honest on feedback...

...which leads me onto another gripe about egay, that's becoming more and more prevalent - some kind of blackmail to make you leave positive feedback and 5 star DSRs.  They tend to get -ve and 1 star DSRs, as I don't respond well to blackmail.

I ordered an electronic TPS for the V70 from a company on e-bay couple of days after deadline for delivery and no show I got in touch with seller.Turns out they shipped it by a company called APC who apparently tried to deliver it while I was out but didn't leave any notification that they'd been.Phoned APC today to re-arrange delivery,they can't re-direct it to me at work[instead of home]without sellers permission,so I said leave it with a neighbour and they asked which one so I said any will do. But you can only specify one,how do I know which one will be in?By the way work is 3mls from home and this company do deliver to the same site.

I don't leave feedback...on eBay, amazon marketplace. AO, Currys.........anywhere. The emails get more frantic before they finally stop.    ;D
