RickHarrisMaine Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I think I am, but I wanted to see what some of the more experienced sellers thought. I sold a boxed Bally Astrocade, with games, and it was working fine. I sent it out to the person who bought it on eBay, and they said it didn't work. I then told him to send it back for a refund. He did, but forgot the box, and I fixed it. I told him its fixed, and does he still want it, and he does, and wants me to ship it all back to him at my expense, and I'm offering to split the costs. I don't think I should have to eat the shipping entirely, do you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drache Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I think your idea of split the last amount of shipping is reasonable since he wants it back instead of a refund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holygrailvideogames.com Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Did he pay for shipping when he sent it back to you? If he did and it didn't work like your auction said when it arrived at his home I would pay for shipping back. The Astrocade units are very delicate. I would say about 50 percent of the ones that I have bought have not worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickHarrisMaine Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 I would agree that they are delicate. this one I had to reattach the power cable to the video output, which was loosened by the trip, it would seem. and yes, he paid to ship it back to me, for a refund. Now that its fixed, he wants it, and we've agreed to go halvesies on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you got a great buyer. Since he paid to ship it back to you, and he paid half to have it shipped back, it's not actually "halvsesies" tho. More like threequarteresies... I would have paid to ship it back, but then I'm not a big seller. desiv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
