Title: My Unfortunate Transaction with Fragil1ty
Post by: crimsonTofu on Thu, 19 March 2015, 19:24:10
I was really hesitant to make this post because I love the GeekHack / mechanical keyboard community but I believe I have held off for too long.
I don't post very often but I have been lurking through this forum for about a year. I have had many successful transactions on this forum with international and local members (I am from Canada) but this post is to put GH's Fragil1ty into the spotlight. Back in December, I purchased a KUL ES-87 from him for $114 USD. He never gave me a tracking number, he only told me that he sent it out and it should be with me within 2-3 weeks. When I didn't receive it, I messaged him once more. He said something went wrong during the shipping process and that they sent the keyboard back to him. He asked if I wanted him to send it back to me or if I wanted a full refund. I decided I wanted a refund because it was the holiday season and I shouldn't be splurging too much. Since then I still have not received a refund despite messaging him numerous times afterward. I really didn't want to make this post because he was such a great guy while we were making the deal but he isn't replying to me anymore so this had to be done. I'm aware there isn't anything anyone can really do for me, I just wanted to let you all know of my current situation.
Here is a link to my proof of payment as well as some of the PM's between Fragil1ty and myself: http://imgur.com/a/JJ7HZ
As you can see from the last picture, the last time he PM'd me was on February 15th and he has yet to get back to me.

So let me get this straight. He says he CANNOT send you the refund because he needs to spend it on bills? And yet he makes a post on the 15th of this month about how he is going to buy a nearly $300 monitor with birthday money?

That's sure nice of him.......


Hope you can figure something out, was that a goods invoice? I would think about disputing the transaction if I were you.

Oh I, C..

but he doesn't have the money, regardless of the bills is the takeaway..

So.. just give fragility some more time..  He seems fairly upstanding from all of our interactions on this forum.

He mentions his bills in the last picture. There is another PM he sent me which explicitly states he could not give me my refund yet because of his bills but I decided to leave that one out. I understand that he has bills to pay but looking at what HPE1000 said about the monitor kind of ticks me off. No I don't believe it was a goods invoice.

So essentially guys, it was my birthday yesterday and I've been eyeing up this monitor: http://www.amazon.com/Asus-VG248QE-24-Inch-LED-Lit-Monitor/dp/B00B2HH7G0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1426445419&sr=8-1&keywords=Asus+VG248QE+24-inch for quite some time now.

Now i've heard that the transition from 60hz to 120/144hz is rather good, especially for games such as CS:GO (which I play a lot of, especially surrounding the competitive scene). Now, what I don't want to happen is for me to go out and spend a lot of money on a monitor and for the upgrade to not be worth it. I'm all for buying expensive upgrades for my computer (hardware or peripheral based), but if it's only going to be a slight upgrade, then I don't think it's entirely worth it.

Have you perhaps thought of the possibility that he is trying to resell it now so that he can give the refund to this user? Perhaps we stop this witch hunt nonsense and allow these things to go up with the moderators first.

Well it seems then that he isnt full of mal-intent. He clearly DID intend on selling the board. I am not going to mention the morality of his spending habits, but I doubt he is doing this all just to scam this user. As I said, I find it deeply worrying that the community uses these means to root out poor situations in our community instead of first going to leadership or talking with others privately.

No, I do not believe Fragil1ty meant for this to happen. I honestly believe he is a stand-up guy. The intention of this post was not to make him out as a scammer. As for leadership and talking with others privately, I did message him about two weeks ago and still have not received an answer.

look man lets calm down. I am not saying that we should go whining to the mods saying "I want my money back, get me my money back." I know that if I sent a note to Hoff or any other admin saying "I have had a bad experience with a user who hasnt provided me a refund, what do you think should be my plan of action?" or something to that effect Im sure I could get a thoughtful response.

An ounce of kindness goes a long ways, a nice note asking an honest question will receive attention from my experience. There is no reason for us to portray the mods as rulers. They too are members of our community, they are willing to contribute and give advice like the rest of us.

Well I don't know about PMs but most of the private information is blanked out.
Fragility's name is listed publicly in his signature so there's no real privacy issue about that.

Although I think Fragility's behavior is repulsive, self-serving and contradictory. There is really no need to start this thread.The simple answer is just file a paypal complaint and let them deal with it.
At the end of the day, the result is that fragility didn't deliver the board to you and actually still has the board in his possession.

Mod's don't really do this. They can't really enforce anything (financially speaking I mean) here.
You need to deal with Paypal and/or your financial institution. In your case you'll get your money back.

That's as simple as that and what you should do if you haven't already.
Don't wait any longer. Enough time has already passed for this to be considered "reasonable" by any sort of standard.

You should file the complaint. I could understand if the seller asked you to wait until the the board was actually returned to him physically but as that's no longer the issue.
The seller having these inadvertent issues during shipping is really unfortunate. Although, the keyboard wasn't damaged and pretty much the seller's time was the only thing that was really lost here.
The seller is responsible to getting the board to you. If this was a case where the buyer and seller have a disagreement after the buyer has received the board, that's something that's more open to debate depending on the circumstances.
The seller has his board back and in this case it never touched your hands (it wasn't a return, exchange or something like that) then he should send your money back.
Fragility has his board back (physically) and OP doesn't have his money back. That's the "transaction" aspect side of this. It's very clear cut in this situation.


As for this moral bull****, Fragility's in the wrong here no matter which way you dice it.
The seller is ultimately responsible responsible until the board reaches the buyer. That being said, most people are reasonable and understanding if accidents happen while the board is in transit. The seller should have little leeway if the seller couldn't have reasonably prevented and expected whatever unfortunate event happened.

If the board wasn't back in Fragility's hands I could understand this but again this isn't the case.
If you have your board back, then you refund the buyer. If you don't have the financial means to do so - that's your problem and responsibility not the buyer's. You cannot use this an excuse to withhold a refund.
You can't use other obligations such as bills to delay issuing a refund. You're not borrowing money from a friend here, you sold a board which is back in your hands.
You can't ask the original buyer to wait until you've completed your sale of the original board until paying the buyer back.

The argument that fragility desperately needs the money to pay bills or something is a 2 way street. The OP may in fact need this money as well for some purpose in his life. If you subscribe to the thought that Fragility or well  "Have you perhaps thought of the possibility that he is trying to resell it now so that he can give the refund to this user?" You need to understand that  Fragility is tying tofu's funds in the same manner that you phrased this question. Fragility is holding his funds while he has his board back.

I feel like such a moral arbiter writing this and I have no morals.
Looking at this thread though, I'm a little worried that people don't perceive and abide by proper business guidelines or even just common sense.
I'm more than a little concerned that some people here think it's okay to take liberties with other people's money during sales. I'm always concerned that that some sellers might do this but I'm more than troubled that some people think this is acceptable.

Well I don't know about PMs but most of the private information is blanked out.
Fragility's name is listed publicly in his signature so there's no real privacy issue about that.

Although I think Fragility's behavior is repulsive, self-serving and contradictory. There is really no need to start this thread.The simple answer is just file a paypal complaint and let them deal with it.
At the end of the day, the result is that fragility didn't deliver the board to you and actually still has the board in his possession.

Mod's don't really do this. They can't really enforce anything (financially speaking I mean) here.
You need to deal with Paypal and/or your financial institution. In your case you'll get your money back.

That's as simple as that and what you should do if you haven't already.
Don't wait any longer. Enough time has already passed for this to be considered "reasonable" by any sort of standard.

You should file the complaint. I could understand if the seller asked you to wait until the the board was actually returned to him physically but as that's no longer the issue.
The seller having these inadvertent issues during shipping is really unfortunate. Although, the keyboard wasn't damaged and pretty much the seller's time was the only thing that was really lost here.

So can he complain to paypal if OP paid as gift?  Did OP pay as gift?  If not, harder to enforce.

Still the whole thing went like this:
OP bought item, never received.
Frag said he would refund, never did.
Frag used that money for something else.
Frag has now sold the same board again to someone else, and has that someone's money.
Frag is now throwing dollas at a new monitor.

So tell me again why some of you think the OP shouldn't be upset?

Frag has been active this whole time on top of it, looking to spend 2x the money on something he doesnt need. Frag is also making OP suck up the shipping fees he lost, which I don't agree with. Nothing he has done deserves any more patience/respect from the buyer. Don't give me that.

i'm just going to 'speak up' on the pay as goods thing.

remember that this is between a canadian and a european.  NOT between american and american.

if europe to canada is as bad as canada to europe, then paying with goods [properly] would have required tracking which would have cost upwards of $40-$50 USD with proper packaging.

yes...people are going to say 'suck it up'....i'm not trying to defend one side or the other.  facts are good yes?

i'm being conservative.  if i remember correctly, it was actually closer to $60.

EDIT:

even if it's only $10 for tracking...i've seen people from everywhere bail on trades and purchases cause of that tiny amount on the already 50% shipping cost.  except for australians....tough guys :)

funny thing, it's like $180 to ship a tk to singapore with tracking from canada (maybe it was minila)

I'm with the OP and I would've done exactly the same thing. In life there is always a consequence for any action you take and to help further the community I believe any member who would exhibit such behavior should be banned until the matter is resolved, or forever depending on how serious. Now, if the seller doesn't want to resolve the issue with the OP then that's fine. The OP can get his or her money back from PP, our shady dealer is banned, and the community is better off for it.

And yes, you should never send money as a gift.

To OP and anyone else reading one thing to learn here is don't pay as gift.

I didn't read any father than this.
I make all my buyers wait for my invoice, then I send to the verified paypal address.
This way the buyer and seller are protected.
When I ship with tracking to the PP address, I am protected by paypal's seller clause.
When the buyer pays the invoice, they are covered 90 days, [180 international] by the buyer clause if the product is not as described or doesnt show up.

Separate account.
I transfered my RS3 order to another user on this forum.
In the messages to them I quoted Ivan saying he would transfer the order after they paid me.
I then invoiced them on paypal, protecting us both.
I THEN told them to message Ivan, to confirm I wasn't scamming them.
I would never, but you can never be too precautious.

Now I want to throw this out there, I have been on GH for a fairly long period of time, during that time, I've sold lots of keyboards ranging from Choc minis, HHKB's, Keycool84's and even mice, I have never, ever had an issue gone awry as this has.

Now I do have money spare here from my birthday, funds that I could quite easily refund the OP for, but the simple fact is, he has gone and made a post about all of this posting some of my personal information (my name and my personal e-mail address) and despite him having my e-mail address, I have received 0 emails from him about this matter.

Now I like this community, I like being a part of it as it's quite a good one. I have every intention of paying back the OP, but as I previously specified, I'm deducting the shipping charges because I paid for them plain and simple, it's not my fault that crap went south during the shipping process.

I can see how this may look like I'm trying to be a bit of an ass surrounding this whole incident, but I am a man of my word and he will get his payment.

I wont be paying you today as I will be paying you within the next 2 weeks. I don't appreciate threads being made about me that tarnish my reputation here on the forums, I don't appreciate my personal information being released because you are frustrated, you took the time to black out information of yours, but you didn't take the time to do the same to me? Hm, I know I'm in the wrong here, but that's a bit of a **** move also.

I would throw in why I have been inactive here, but it's down to personal reasons and I don't want any sympathy. I would like to thank people who have saw both sides and not jumped to conclusions, I hope this can be resolved relatively soon, it has gone on long enough and that's partially my fault due to complications and money issues, but as I specified above, I will get this sorted ASAP.

Split the lost shipping with him then, if it wasn't your fault, it also isn't OP's fault.

There is no both sides to see here. You HAVE been active here, that is just the thing. You have owed him the money for at least a month (Since you resold the keyboard). It should not be OP's fault you "need" the money for other things, as has been pointed out, you were just looking to spend 2x that money on something you didn't need.

You can't seriously expect people to believe that the only reason you didn't send him money was because he didn't CONTINUE to ask for you to refund him.

Lets be honest here, you were just hoping he would sit back and wait until you felt you needed to pay him back, not when he deserved to be paid back. You are the seller, you need to take responsibility for handling the sale, OP wouldn't have even been put in this situation if you hadn't done what you did, even ignoring the thing getting lost in customs.

Seeing as how you had been active more than a couple times since you stopped responding to his messages, would it have killed you to send him a message saying "I am really sorry, I just can't send the money right now, I can get it to you soon though."

Who cares how long you have been on GH and how many items you have sold, that doesn't make what you did right.

Yes that is obvious, seems to be your thing.

So how exactly did this shipping get screwed up anyway? Do you have proof you shipped the item and that it was returned? Or was it too easy to say you shipped it but didn't so you get to pocket that money?

You should at least go in half on refunding the shipping cost if you didn't screw something up that caused the item to be returned.

I'm not saying your scamming the guy but how easy would it be to sell something to someone, especially international then charge a large shipping fee then wait a while and say oh well I got it back I'll refund you when I feel like it and oh I can't return that shipping money either. Then turn around and immediately sell the board to someone else while never refunding the first guy at all.

And as far as the guy not contacting you, I'm assuming he PM'd you at some point previous and you never replied?

Fragil1ty you say that it's not your fault for the problems with the shipping, so are you saying that it's crimsonTofu's fault? You are the seller you have all the responsibility in this affair. The only responsibility of the buyer is to pay for the goods that he never received. So he should not have to pay for a problem in the shipping, you should.
 Your argument for not receiving another message from is invalid as far as I'm concerned since you told him "You'll get your money when you get your money", that clearly shows you are not willing to talk.
It's also your fault you spent the money before confirming that crimsonTofu had the keyboard.

I can only see you as in the wrong on this particular case, so please do the right thing and give him back his money and let's just all try to forget this all happened

So frag gets paid for a keyboard that is returned to him due to a shipping error. Does not refund OP's money. Sells the keyboard again, collecting more money yet still can't return OP's money ??

It's also your fault you spent the money before confirming that crimsonTofu had the keyboard.

I can only see you as in the wrong on this particular case, so please do the right thing and give him back his money and let's just all try to forget this all happened


Thank you for your input.

The amazing thing is you promised the guy a refund multiple times through pm and your still dragging this out. People like you give the classifieds here a bad reputation.

And what happened to that code that was to allow you a refund on postage you mentioned?

So I've just received a message from OP regarding this thread so I thought I'd step in and give my two cents, bear in mind I have no had a message from OP since February, proof here:

(http://danielclarkedesigns.co/images/20150320133228703.png) (http://danielclarkedesigns.co/images/20150320133228703.png) [1]


Now I want to throw this out there, I have been on GH for a fairly long period of time, during that time, I've sold lots of keyboards ranging from Choc minis, HHKB's, Keycool84's and even mice, I have never, ever had an issue gone awry as this has.

Now I do have money spare here from my birthday, funds that I could quite easily refund the OP for, but the simple fact is, he has gone and made a post about all of this posting some of my personal information (my name and my personal e-mail address) and despite him having my e-mail address, I have received 0 emails from him about this matter.

Now I like this community, I like being a part of it as it's quite a good one. I have every intention of paying back the OP, but as I previously specified, I'm deducting the shipping charges because I paid for them plain and simple, it's not my fault that crap went south during the shipping process.

I can see how this may look like I'm trying to be a bit of an ass surrounding this whole incident, but I am a man of my word and he will get his payment.

I wont be paying you today as I will be paying you within the next 2 weeks. I don't appreciate threads being made about me that tarnish my reputation here on the forums, I don't appreciate my personal information being released because you are frustrated, you took the time to black out information of yours, but you didn't take the time to do the same to me? Hm, I know I'm in the wrong here, but that's a bit of a **** move also.

I would throw in why I have been inactive here, but it's down to personal reasons and I don't want any sympathy. I would like to thank people who have saw both sides and not jumped to conclusions, I hope this can be resolved relatively soon, it has gone on long enough and that's partially my fault due to complications and money issues, but as I specified above, I will get this sorted ASAP.

Thank you for reading this and thank you for your patience. @op

Judging from what you wrote, I'm assuming you never got the PM that I sent on March 5th.
I'm sorry I didn't black your stuff out, to be completely honest I didn't even know what I should have blacked out.

Have you perhaps thought of the possibility that he is trying to resell it now so that he can give the refund to this user? Perhaps we stop this witch hunt nonsense and allow these things to go up with the moderators first.
He sold it again already to lechner

And its still up on classifieds? Has Lechner received the board?
I posted link above

Well it seems then that he isnt full of mal-intent. He clearly DID intend on selling the board. I am not going to mention the morality of his spending habits, but I doubt he is doing this all just to scam this user. As I said, I find it deeply worrying that the community uses these means to root out poor situations in our community instead of first going to leadership or talking with others privately.

this was done through classifieds?

doesn't that mean he explicitly SHOULD NOT go to the mods and admins?

I dont understand your meaning, what is your basis?

TBC made the point here; which is, mods are not litigators, nor mediators; that is understandable, as this is NOT a commerce site.


Fragil1ty should return the money without regarding his other purchasing plans. If he received money for something he did not deliver, he is accountable for that money. There is no reasons that mitigates this simple fact.

=( I know how it feels to be on the other side of the OP's witch hunt and though those were false accusations that was proven wrong by my proof I provided, it still sucked  :-[ I honestly can't blame the OP for doing this considering he waited for months and that he never even got the item as well as the accused successfully reselling the item yet not providing the OP with his refund. I think he should get full refund because if he can charge the OP for shipping fee for an item they never received then Frag. can simply sell things internationally to how ever many people he wants while claiming he shipped it and it was mailed back to him and that he is charging postage fee to the buyers allowing him to get free MONNIEZ.

Such an annoying thing to have happen to you.

I know that post services sometimes screw up, but since it appear that fragil1ty didn´t provide any proof of sending the object, one cant help but wonder if it ever were mailed to you.
And the attitude he responded with in this topic don´t help his case at all.

I hope it will work out for you, now that many geekhackers have been brought to attention of this user.

I mean, this is better than not refunding him, but you must see that you're being a complete ******* by doing this. Him publicly shaming you because of your own **** ups isn't reason enough to hold onto his cash. Public shaming is an effective method of making unresponsive people respond. You proved it yourself by finally responding after he posted this.

This isn't the first time you've ****ed someone over though, is it? Remember when you sold AGMurdercore a Noppoo? You listed it as having a bouncing T switch, no other problems. What he got was a Noppoo with a cracked case. Don't blame this on the shipping. After looking at your ****ty sale pictures, it was there. You just didn't mention it. This'll be the first you've heard about it though since he kept it to himself, purely because he didn't want to deal with you any more.

Your actions are as slimy and fishy as your appearance.

Agreed, shame is a powerful motivator until fragil1ty sees a bunch of people mocking him for how he looks, ragequits GH, and runs away with OPs money. He's already proven he can't handle a transaction-gone-awry in the best manner, so let's not make it harder for OP to get his money back. If this were me, I'd be asking you guys to remove the pictures stat.

Tofu thanks for posting the thread. I think you went about it in the right way (except releasing personal details(the picture should be edited)), waited a reasonable amount of time before letting the community know and did reach out to fragil1ty.

Ok guys.. Calm down..

First..   Don't get so worked up over $100..  The average lifespan is worth around 3-4 million..

So it's really a small pebble in the road..


Second..  I believe Fragility is -kids- age..  So he's not going to be especially adept at dealing with this type of social situation.  he also does not have the capital to rectify quickly.


So, chill out..  and stop the drama..   To the rest of the vultures.. shoo shoo....

1000% accurate
Title: Re: My Unfortunate Transaction with Fragil1ty
Post by: berserkfan on Fri, 20 March 2015, 20:49:02
As a guy who has more sell than buy transactions, I really do not like the seller’s attitude here. You should not deduct shipping cost if goods didn't make it into buyer's country. Problems in seller's country and with seller's own customs department ARE THE PROBLEM OF THE SELLER.

As someone who receives payment by gift routinely, I can say that gifting is not an issue for outright scams. You can always take back a gift.

I want payment by gift for three reasons. One is to circumvent pp fees, especially since I don’t expect protection as a seller anyway. Most people I do business with don’t have paypal US verified addresses (I don’t also!). Circumventing pp lowers cost of transaction for everyone.

A second reason is that I have a non-USD account, and deal with people with non USD accounts. PP tries to nickel and dime you whenever it can, eg by charging currency conversion fees twice. Unless someone is paying USD from an existing USD pp balance, the seller is usually charged extra for payments from a non-USD base currency. Paying me in Singapore dollars is useless since I will still get charged currency conversion if your account is in pounds or kronor etc. Not to mention I can’t take that money out of paypal without them charging me yet again for bank transfers. So I really hate paypal and do everything I can to avoid letting them charge me.

The last reason is to cut off trivial disputes and frivolous complaints. You need to write in to claim back a gift. That's not something anyone would do unless he was either a victim of fraud, or planning to file a false claim. Most disputes are not outright scams where nothing was sent or a Cooler Master sent in place of a Filco. Gifting means that a kid using his parents’ pp account won’t be able to dispute without at least letting his parents know what was going on. It discourages the sleazy stunts that people like Pacifist and Stancato09 like to pull when they do goods payment.

Try asking my friend Henz how to take back a gift. He’s done it before on a sleazy gher.

I am also more than puzzled why many of the same people who say ‘don’t send money as a gift’ will happily participate in group buys where they pay hundreds of dollars and wait 1+ year to get their swag via proxy shippers. Paying by goods is useless after 45 days. If you want the safety of paying by goods, you also need to do your own part to meet paypal requirements: direct shipping to your paypal verified address, and to file complaint within 45 days if not satisfied. Since OP waited too long, goods payment wouldn’t have helped him anyway.

I also have my doubts about some things.

The name being tossed around, supposedly Fragli1ty’s real name, is Dxxx Kxxx-Cxxx. All 3 elements are fully Anglo. The photos that supposedly reflect his actual appearance, which Hoffman has deleted, don’t match such a name. I think some innocent netizen’s photo got used as Fragil1ty’s.

Fragil1ty has been around for quite a bit. He didn’t look good here, but I don’t think he’s going to destroy his reputation over one keyboard. I fully support the mods in editing out the Doxing. I also want to point out at the time of this post, the OP has continued to display the personal details for Fragil1ty.

The behaviour of at least two geekhackers on this thread has really disappointed me. You guys are old timers and you don't know our rules (and general netiquette) on Doxing? In the bigger scheme of things, fake clacks/artisan caps are much more harmful to Geekhack as a whole than one ugly transaction, but people did not post the forger's photos either. I would give Fragil1ty the benefit of the doubt here because he hasn't established a pattern of sleazy behaviour yet. There are geekhackers who routinely do not send stuff within 2-3 months, refuse to answer PMs and are rude and vulgar, and somehow most of you folks still happily do business with them. Somehow, when someone is able to supply rare clacks or Model F keyboards, the normal rules of good sense go flying out of the window.

On a final note I don’t understand why the seller was charged $0.57 for fees. That’s not a gift, but it is way too low for any credit card payment.

Firstly, it no longer links. At least not today; I can't find his personal info.

Secondly, if it DID link, it implied that he wanted us to know who he was in personal life/ maybe connect to him professionally in the hope that maybe some job will come his way. That makes him even less likely to scam anyone.

very fair post but this is the wrong assessment, as photekq has already pointed out how dishonest Fragility was in a previous transaction
Title: Re: My Unfortunate Transaction with Fragil1ty
Post by: berserkfan on Sat, 21 March 2015, 05:30:46
I see. Somehow I missed Photekq’s response. My bad. Last I remembered Photekq was still Hitler, and now his avatar is some weirdo wizard.

AG’s pretty easygoing. I can see how he didn’t get all angry and ranty when he got a damaged Noppoo. But that also meant it didn’t register with the geekhack public. AG’s got creds with me so if he’d spoken out (as opposed to OP with practically no post history) I would have been much more sympathetic.

Since two incidents make a pattern, this is no longer a one-off thing.
 
I say let’s wait the two weeks that Fragil1ty has asked for. But all of us are now watching.

Two weeks from now will also be past payday for March. Fragil1ty will have no excuse to claim he has no money prior to payday. Considering how enthusiastic the general population has been about taking out the pitchforks, feathers, tar and boiling oil, I think we can exert quite a bit of influence in encouraging Fragil1ty to make good on his commitments. Worst come to worst, he won’t be back. Bad for OP, good for us all since we have one fewer problem member.

Although I think Fragility's behavior is repulsive, self-serving and contradictory. There is really no need to start this thread.The simple answer is just file a paypal complaint and let them deal with it.

Paypal only allows for chargebacks within a certain amount of time.


You need to deal with Paypal and/or your financial institution. In your case you'll get your money back.
If you chargeback through your bank your paypal goes negative and they pass the charge onto a debt collection agency



The seller is ultimately responsible responsible until the board reaches the buyer.


Not necessarily. I've had to make several transactions myself where I clearly stated that I would not take responsibility for the product after I've posted it for customs / protection issues with paypal. This is more dependent on the transaction terms.

i'm just going to 'speak up' on the pay as goods thing.

remember that this is between a canadian and a european.  NOT between american and american.

if europe to canada is as bad as canada to europe, then paying with goods [properly] would have required tracking which would have cost upwards of $40-$50 USD with proper packaging.

yes...people are going to say 'suck it up'....i'm not trying to defend one side or the other.  facts are good yes?

Going to second this.

It has nothing to really do with the fees and more to do with the power of the buyer to chargeback. The seller is forced to take tracking and this would make the whole transaction pointless as it would be cheaper to get a brand new one within NA.

Though, as I mentioned about the chargeback power of the buyer, the buyer must be more aware of this loss as well as be more careful with who to pay in this fashion





As for the situation on hand... I'd honestly like to know what problem there was with shipping.

Personally if someone gives me the wrong address to ship to, I'm not refunding that shipping money. I always verify 2-3 times with the buyer before shipping to avoid such hassles. If they screw up all 3 times then tough luck.
If however I made the mistake on the shipping forms and didn't write the correct address or anything I'll gladly take the hit and reship ASAP.

I've been on both sides of the witch hunt myself, publicly and privately. You could have honestly had good intentions and the person just gets angry at you for some reason and starts a witch hunt against you. I sold some audio gear a while back. Made sure to clarify in my listing that goods were cosmetically damaged but fully functional with picture proof. The guy gave me problems throughout the entire payment phase and after receiving the stuff he comes out and tries to put me out as a scammer. Go figure.



After reviewing all the posts made here in this thread however I really feel like frag may have just been hoping that tofu would just sit quiet until it was more convenient for him to return the money

Complaints and chargeback are two separate things.
Chargebacks are not automatically passed to a collection agency.
If you use PayPal, sellers are responsible for shipping until the product reaches the buyer just because you say aren't responsible doesn't absolve you of that liability during disputes that PayPal handles.

The guy gave me problems throughout the entire payment phase and after receiving the stuff he comes out and tries to put me out as a scammer. Go figure.



After reviewing all the posts made here in this thread however I really feel like frag may have just been hoping that tofu would just sit quiet until it was more convenient for him to return the money
   


Complaints and chargeback are two separate things.
Chargebacks are not automatically passed to a collection agency.
If you use PayPal, sellers are responsible for shipping until the product reaches the buyer just because you say aren't responsible doesn't absolve you of that liability during disputes that PayPal handles.

Charging back the paypal charge with your bank will definitely cause you to go negative on your own paypal account.

And that last point is the reason some people have to use paypal gift.
I'm not paying $40 for tracking for a single set of springs to Australia which would be less than $10 otherwise. Though, without the tracking I have no insurance or proof and therefore make it clear that it's at their own risk for shipping and not my responsibility.

In your example, you can send First Class International through USPS and add the tracking info manually.

Almost every one I've sent has had tracking but I also used USPS website to ship them all.

that's what I thought.

but glitch3d is canadian.  so is nubs saying there is a way to get first class tracking on packages sent FROM canada to australia and cheaper than $40?

EDIT:

USA to Canada first class had tracking...BUT i'm not sure if it just says first class intl on the label but the shipper actually paid for priority (i've had 2 instances of first class shipping on the usps.com tracking site, but the buyer said they paid for priority)

Is the cheapest way for me to send springs tracked to Australia using a thin padded envelope.

This is the reason that charging for tracking isn't feasible.

Another note is that option only covers maximum $100 worth of goods, I'd have to take the $70 option to add extra insurance for higher value items.

Any country with reciprocity.  I've shipped First Class International and had it tracked to Canada, Australia, the UK, and most European states I shipped to.  I've even had tracking show up for Taiwan and other places in Asia.  Some places give a blow by blow, either on USPS or the country's own mail, others just do delivery confirmation.

It always seemed to me that the package would be tracked to the customs office of the destination country, but no further. I could be wrong, as often happens.

Well, once it reached the destination country, one code use the tracking code eg Royal Mail's or USPS' in the local country Post website and it will then tracked the package locally. It's super integrated even on such a backward country like Malaysia's :p

My mistake, I meant a US Customs declaration form. There is a claim number on all of them, and it works as a tracking number on a few sites such as trackitonline.ru.

The Postal System here is a joke.  I should take pictures the next time I pick up a package there.

As far as anything incoming is concerned, I just sit and wait for a postal card informing me to pick it up at the post office so that they can rape my wallet on taxes and customs duties (while rampant smuggling and tax evasion continues)   Sometimes it gets marked delivered after I pick it up but even that is after a few days.

Incoming mail takes anywhere from 20-35 business days since the manual sorting here takes forever...screening packages to steal takes time.  Thankfully I've not lost anything in the mail yet.

*knocks on wood*

For outgoing mail, the first tracking step locally is "consolidated for export".  The next notification is that the item has been sent abroad, but this isn't always updated and tracking usually just resumes when it arrives in the destination country.

That's kind of assumed now anyway... Even if he has made transactions in the past with no problems the way he has handled this whole situation has been so appalling that it would make anyone who can read stay clear.

There are a bunch of items I would like in the classifieds but have stayed well clear because of there dubious track record.

So you steal someone's money and refuse to pay him back, despite admitting that you should, because other people posted things about you?  Do you not understand why this is ****ed up?

I know this is a lost cause and all that, but wow.

Get a grip you moronic, ****ing retard. Muting me so that I cannot reply? I find it funny that virgins like you who abuse power because that is the only power that you will ever have (referring to being a moderator), you insignificant little half-wit.

Paying him back in $1 increments, did you not read the previous post or are you (like all other Americans) brain dead? Nevermind don't answer, I already know what your answer is going to be.

And so it begins.

'sup you bunch of pretentious virgins.

I've thought long and hard surrounding a solution and I thought, paying nothing back would be the ideal solution, but then I thought of something else, something a lot more fitting.. so instead.
I'm going pay him back.

In $1 increments every week until all is paid off (excluding my shipping costs of course).

Enjoy, peace out ****ters.

I don't even know how not paying him back is ideal? You should have paid him back originally when it was private, and then when he brings it to light so others can make sure we don't deal with a shifty member, you get upset and make it worse for yourself?

Oh wow, here comes another pointless post I couldn't give 2 ****s about. I'll be honest, I don't give a **** about any of you here, your posts are all redundant. Post pictures of me, post personal information, cool, go you boo boo.

But in all seriousness, I could not give 2 ****s about what you, this board or any other member thinks of me or my transactions, the fact of the matter is the majority of you are all spineless little half-wits that still live at home with mommy, fun times.

I would have paid him back in full, but after the slew of bull**** that is this thread, I thought 'nah' so I'm doing it this way.

mwah, xooxox.
**** he's right, I do still live at home with mommy. PLEASE TEACH ME TO GET ALL THE **** YOU HANDSOME MOTHER****ER

I must say, for everyone who isn’t the OP (sorry about your money OP), this is pretty hilarious. Maybe we should take up a collection to pay him back collectively, in return for the great entertainment.

Also, Fragility, I recommend seeking help from a trusted friend, mentor, parent, priest, psychiatrist, or someone.  Your responses in this thread are way over the top considering the scale of the issue, and the kind of paranoia and hostility you’re expressing is usually a symptom of some more serious issue. I hope everything else is going okay.

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA



Let me help ya'll Ghers understand this situation..

The problem with public shaming, is that the Vultures (the passerbys) who has NOTHING to do with the event, will dole out "verbal" abuse in EXCESS of the necessary / deserving penance of the Original Transgressor.

It is a fact that -Fragility- did "SOMETHING" wrong..  This is not disputed..

But

Because -crimsonTofu-  made an equally poor decision to take this small quarrel PUBLIC, 

The Lash out is worse than -Fragility- deserves for such a small mistake..

AND SO..  While we usually exclude pain-and-suffering from "accounting" disputes,  THE REALITY is not so simple.. and -Fragility- HAS BEEN exposed to Undue stress..

And so,  -Fragility-'s  only recourse to set his own mind at ease after the fact, is to backlash in this seemingly insane, but very proportional irrationality.



By opening up the issue to the public,  -Fragility- is no longer ONLY responding to the original late-refund of $xx.x sum to -crimsonTofu-..


He is responding to all the -Fvkd up-  bull **** drummed up by GHer's who have no business or right to talk all this smack..



Tp4 supports -Fragility's- Decision..

To make this more LEGIT..   Why don't you pay him a sum adjusted for inflation it' won't be that much more... ..  HAHAHAHA..


The first mistake was the POST-Service, 

The second Late-Refund is -Fragility's-,

The Third mistake, was -crimsonTofu- taking a minute issue public, setting up -Fragility- for public shaming..

The 4th mistake,  was all the Fvk-tards on GH involving themselves in business they have NO PART in..


The RESULT,  is this silliness..   and this long explanation by Tp4, who sees the world for what it is..

People who has grown insensitive to everyone else but themselves..

That's why this thread is appropriate. It was posted to put pressure on him to make things right, which he never intended to do anyways. Had he been honest from the get go and payed the man back, this thread would have died a long time ago. His ego may have been bruised, but boohoo, get over it and continue to be part of the community and reshape your image. Mistakes happen.

But no

He decided to be a child. So he will be treated as so.

No.. they are separate issues..

Already did.  Even if you want to say that this thread is excessive, it doesn't change the fact that he owes someone money.  End of story.  You don't earn the right to steal from people because other completely different people on the internet were meanies to you.

Fragility is right to do what he's done.. After the unjust public shaming

Read post  #230 for explanation

https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=70113.msg1707900#msg1707900

He had 4 months to make right on his part.  The fact of the matter is that he sold the same board to someone else in the meantime, and still didn't refund the guy.

That's why this thread is appropriate. It was posted to put pressure on him to make things right, which he never intended to do anyways. Had he been honest from the get go and payed the man back, this thread would have died a long time ago. His ego may have been bruised, but boohoo, get over it and continue to be part of the community and reshape your image. Mistakes happen.

But no

He decided to be a child. So he will be treated as so.

No,  it is not..

When you're shafted of $100..  You deserve that amount back + interest..

THAT"S IT...   You do not deserve to shame the person who owes you money.. You do not deserve to HARM that other person in any way..  You have NO CLAIM to any recourse OUTSIDE of the original OWED SUM of money + interest for late-payment..


FRAGILITY was WRONG for the late payment..

But his current demeanor is in response to the IMPROPER handling of this transgression..


User,  -crimsonTofu- Should have went straight to paypal dispute, with the evidence at hand, which he had..

All this should've been handled PRIVATELY..

And I didn't say he has the right..

I agree he should repay the money..

But.. Read post #264,   https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=70113.msg1707948#msg1707948


It explains how this should've been correctly handled, and precisely what's owed...


The fallout here includes MORE than the originally owed sum..

PRIVATLEY was going no where. I bet he was just hoping the guy would stop pming him and he would never have to pay back. Seeing that the guy had 0 posts on geek hack prior to this thread, he didn't have much leverage from the community to help him get the money. So he did what he could. By making his situation publicly aware, it put pressure on vag (oops) I mean frag to pay up.

Fragility, if you want to be totally in the right.. You need to apply interest..

You did not deserve all the "Yelling"..

But, you do have a late-payment..

And if you wish to pay this off in increments,  you need to adjust for the cost of borrowing.

In what way was Privately going no where..

Has  -crimsonTofu- made a paypal dispute ?

EVEN if the payment was not marked for "service/ purchase",  you can still create a dispute and speak with their team about the matter..

The public shaming itself also has no leverage..  LOOK AT WHAT"S HAPPENED..


If Fragility NOW decides to never pay it back.. HOW are you going to force him..

WTF has this imaginary wall-of-shame actually done...


He does not have to pay it back because Geekhack has shamed him..

He has to pay it back because it's the LAW..


The public-SHAMING is unjust and undeserved...

Yeah, I think we've all seen this enough times to know that although there is a small chance it may have worked out, there's a larger chance he would have scammed more people.  Letting everyone know about this is a perfectly reasonable course of action, as long as it doesn't get out of hand.

I'm mostly just sad that frag hates me despite my removing his pictures from the thread.  You do someone a favour and this is how they repay you...  :(

No, he can go to paypal and file a dispute..  Even with limited evidence.. 

If that doesn't go smoothly,

He can also file a charge back or dispute with the Creditcard or Bank /debit card that's used on his Paypal account..


There are LEGAL and Private ways of doing this..

On a serious note, me and Crimsontofu were in talks, I explained to him that it the money would be getting to him sooner rather than later, then personal issues occured such as a very serious family issue, when I returned, he had made this thread because he hadn't heard from me in a while, but hey.

You guys do you, I'll do me. I'm currently getting into talks with TP4 about how to resolve this issue with minimal impact on my current finance and then i'll be hitting up Tofu, but thanks for all of your bull****, your negativity, your unwitty responses and your general doxxing, but hey!

I'd still be scamming people? are you for real. You think because a business transaction has gone awry, that I'm a 'scammer' or i'd still be 'scamming people', lol please.
This is a situation that has spiralled out of control. I have/had every intention of paying back OP, but I'm just sick of annoying justice warriors such as you and many others in this forum trying to dictate what I should do, when I should do it and how I should do it. Like I previously mentioned, I  have been here for a long time and I  have sold multitudes of things varying from different keyboards, mice and so on and none of them have gone south, just as this one has.

Fragility is right to do what he's done.. After the unjust public shaming

Read post  #230 for explanation

https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=70113.msg1707900#msg1707900

He had 4 months to make right on his part.  The fact of the matter is that he sold the same board to someone else in the meantime, and still didn't refund the guy.

That's why this thread is appropriate. It was posted to put pressure on him to make things right, which he never intended to do anyways. Had he been honest from the get go and payed the man back, this thread would have died a long time ago. His ego may have been bruised, but boohoo, get over it and continue to be part of the community and reshape your image. Mistakes happen.

But no

He decided to be a child. So he will be treated as so.

No,  it is not..

When you're shafted of $100..  You deserve that amount back + interest..

THAT"S IT...   You do not deserve to shame the person who owes you money.. You do not deserve to HARM that other person in any way..  You have NO CLAIM to any recourse OUTSIDE of the original OWED SUM of money + interest for late-payment..

But OP tried time and time again to handle it privately and when that didn't work he had to resort to this. So yes, all this public backlash was a necessary evil to get OP his money back
No it wasn't, the thread itself was enough to get fragility to right a wrong. OP goofed big time by posting an email, then a few GHers made it really personal and couldn't keep their mouth shut. As much as I hate to agree with tp4, the shaming isn't fair and has clearly impacted OP getting his money back (we'll see in 93 weeks...). I called that back on page 4. If a few people could have just been civil and not take the "thank you for your input" bull****, OP may have been paid in full and everyone still knows not to get involved with fragility. I think OP's post is good for the community to let people know about bad traders/sellers, but too many people couldn't stay out of it and here we are.

So tell me how would OP get the money back if frag never payed up? And if frag never payed and OP accepted his loses and left and never told anyone, and frag continued to do this **** to other people? Someone would eventually speak out. Sooner the better.
I'm mostly just sad that frag hates me despite my removing his pictures from the thread.  You do someone a favour and this is how they repay you...  :(

NO confirmation of scam taking place..

Yes it is. The only 'name' that was in my profile, was a link to my personal buinsness website. danielclarkedesigns, other information was leaked such as my full name, pictures of myself, images stolen from my twitter, my instagram and then leaked onto here, so yes, that is doxxing.

So tell me how would OP get the money back if frag never payed up? And if frag never payed and OP accepted his loses and left and never told anyone, and frag continued to do this **** to other people? Someone would eventually speak out. Sooner the better.



No, he can go to paypal and file a dispute..  Even with limited evidence.. 

If that doesn't go smoothly,

He can also file a charge back or dispute with the Creditcard or Bank /debit card that's used on his Paypal account..


There are LEGAL and Private ways of doing this..

Sure. Doesn't take away from the fact that he scammed him. And if he never spoke up about it. He would probably still be scamming people.

I'd still be scamming people? are you for real. You think because a business transaction has gone awry, that I'm a 'scammer' or i'd still be 'scamming people', lol please.
This is a situation that has spiralled out of control. I have/had every intention of paying back OP, but I'm just sick of annoying justice warriors such as you and many others in this forum trying to dictate what I should do, when I should do it and how I should do it. Like I previously mentioned, I  have been here for a long time and I  have sold multitudes of things varying from different keyboards, mice and so on and none of them have gone south, just as this one has.

Evidently you don't know what the f you're talking about.

You sold the board to someone else and still didn't pay the guy back. I'm sorry but I have 0 respect for what you have to say. You have not taken ownership at all for this and just shift the blame to some bull **** stories. Admit you ****ed up, pay the guy and move on with your life. Or continue to feed us. Your choice.

So... was the 1/93 payments not really him?  If it was, that is a lot of work for 93 weeks.

Yes it is. The only 'name' that was in my profile, was a link to my personal buinsness website. danielclarkedesigns, other information was leaked such as my full name, pictures of myself, images stolen from my twitter, my instagram and then leaked onto here, so yes, that is doxxing.

And again, this information was removed immediately.

NO confirmation of scam taking place..

Only late payment..

But he took to the public shaming BEFORE exhausting private solutions..

THAT is all _crimsonTofu's_ fault, and not the right way to rectify the situation.

honestly TP, I am just arguing for sport.

I do think things could have gone better,

but after seeing frags true colors, I don't respect anything he says. Nothing on you brother. In all seriousness, he should pay up. If $90 is so important to his life crisis, maybe he should re consider a keyboard hobby.

...whole thing went like this:
OP bought item, never received.
Frag said he would refund, never did.
Frag used that money for something else.
Frag has now sold the same board again to someone else, and has that someone's money.
Frag is now throwing dollas at a new monitor.

Frag, be a doll and tell us exactly what differentiates you from a scammer....

Not if you paid by gift, which is what happened with the original transaction. If crimsonTofu tried to file a dispute, PayPal could suspend his account for improper use.

then he can go to the credit card issuer, (a bank usually), and try there,

HE HAS some evidence of the agreed upon sale..   

If he must,  there's also small-claims-court..  and he can Sue Fragility..

it doesn't matter what is written on the ticket, as long as there's evidence that this was used to PAY for an item which was undelivered..

THERE ARE WAYS to handle this.. you can not deny this.. just as I do not deny that Fragility has made a late-payment.

Actually yes, that is exactly what everyone thinks, except tp4tissue and possibly your grandmother.

If Fragility is able to produce a shipping notice of the keyboard, then that means NO intentional scam has taken place..

Did he NOT want to absorb a mistake on part of the carrier.. Perhaps..  Did Fragility not handle the situation properly  Also yes..

But there is NO EVIDENCE of intentionally scamming -crimsonTofu-..


I'm not saying either people -crimsonTofu- / -Fragility- are bad people....  But neither has taken the proper channels to handle the issue..

Small claims over a $90 keyboard. My time is worth way more then that. I would post this thread over that any day. If I was the OP I wouldn't care about money. Letting people knows of his true colors is reward enough. Knowing his precious keyboards and caps are worth nothing on here. And since we have a general idea of what he owns through his posts. Good luck selling it.

Again..  Proper accounting says, you're owed exactly what you're owed.. 

Public shaming not only unrelated but in excess of what you're owed..

Unless we can quantify How much emotional/verbal abuse is precisely $90 worth to be doled out to Fragility..

It is NOT the proper recourse..


By taking such an UNregulated route to get his money back,  HE himself, HAS MADE, the decision to be repaid in "****z and giggles"...

Because that's all he's gotten so far..

CLEARLY this has not turned out beneficial to EITHER party.

OP here. This will just be a status update on the current situation and I would first like to start off thanking those who have supported me and also those who have stood up for Fragil1ty. As I've stated before, I did not intend for this thread to offend Fragil1ty nor did I want others to dox, insult or harrass him. As for the issue at hand, I received a PM from jdcarpe saying he would like to help me out by buying Fragil1ty's debt from me. JD sent $90 to my PayPal and is now the person Fragil1ty is responsible for refunding.
