The following e-mails come from a chain of correspondences between EvO and a crazy woman from eBay. Check out part two of the crazy eBay saleswoman – Brandy. Basically what happened is I purchased a very cheap pair of earbuds for my iPhone till I found a decent pair. I paid $3.25, which included shipping.. so you know they had to be freakn sweet. In the end I’m pretty sure I was dealing with the loch ness monster off of Southpark who tricks people into getting about $3.50. Any who, I never intended to gather such a humorous event out of my $3.25, but the following e-mails (which are in reverse order from most recent to the start) clearly show that I was at first messing with “her” and saying I didn’t want to deal with her at all. I simply gave her product a neutral review of it was cheap and I got what I paid for. Shortly after the e-mails from her came pouring in, bribing me to change it to a positive review in exchange for another crappy pair of earbuds.. or my $3.25 back. Honestly I’m not sounding like a snobby d-bag, but I wasn’t about to pay to have broken earbuds back to her for $3.25 and I sure as hell didn’t want another set of those pieces of crap. She later ups the anti to 3 pairs, if I’ll be nice to her. I’ll post the most recent e-mail I sent to her, with guaranteed page long response when I get it back from her.
Yesterday I posted a series of e-mails that went back and forth between myself and a saleswoman on eBay. As a quick recap if you don’t want to read through them (pretty funny and might as well check it out – Check out part 1 here) I purchased a very cheap pair of ear bud headsets for my iPhone from her and it broke in a week. I left a neutral, not a negative, but neutral review stating, “Get what you pay for, broke in a week”. Brandy then felt the need to pursue a change of review form from me in exchange for a bribe.. or 3 pairs of her crappy ear buds.I simply told her I didn’t want to change the review and her product stunk – she then wrote me two pages of b.s. I guess trying to persuade me into changing my review still in exchange for garbage. Now it seems she thinks she is a part of a special eBay underground market that controls all of the eBay sellers. She also thinks she has blacklisted me from eBay, little does she know that I too am an eBay seller and know very well that this does not exist. Although I must say these very e-mails of her insanity should one-up her bogus threat and let her potential buyers know what a nutjob she is. Now I’m not telling you to not purchase items from her, please do, but make sure your terrorize her as well.
