Somebody Caught The Stupid

Well, this has been an epicly rotten week thanks to my old pal...eBay. First I sell an Argentine Alitas pony. This pony had brittle wings which fell off in the original package before I bought her. I glued them back on, and when I did, it made a mess. I described this in my auction and take 3 detailed pictures of said damage. This pony has remained on a shelf since I bought her, untouched for 6 or 7 years.

I pack up the pony in a hard plastic wipe box within a hard cardboard tube to prevent her getting crushed and causing further damage to the wings. I include the original back card.

A couple of days later I get a whiny e-mail from the buyer saying that the pony's wing has been damaged by an 1/8" piece of scotch tape I put on it to hold it in place. She also says the pony has a haircut and a black mark on the leg. This is BS and I know it. I made sure the bastard was clean when I shipped it, and there's no way it has a haircut...I was the one to remove it from the original packaging. Argentine Alitas have very short hair compared to Hong Kong/China Windy Wings. Obviously, she did not know this. 

She also accuses me of doing a terrible job packing it.

I get the pony back yesterday. It is wrapped in a shit ton of toilet paper, wrapped up further in tissue paper and the so-called damaged wing (broken off by now because of her crappy handling) looks exactly like it did when I took the pictures for the auction...i.e. no damage from tape, just like I thought. As I've established there is NO haircut and the "black mark" on the leg...it's not there. 

So, the fucking bitch basically had buyer's remorse and went on the offensive attacking me to put up a smoke screen for her real motive. This cost me $114 and has now fucked up my bill situation for the month.

Epilogue, 9/29/11:
I send the bitch her refund of all the money, even though she has not sent me the backcard and she has the nerve to message me bitching that she checked her paypal account and there was no balance and that she will be contacting paypal. Fuck her. I sent her an e-check on purpose because she's such a bitch. Go ahead and contact paypal, you bitchy twat. I am so tempted to stop payment, to wipe my ass with that TP she wrapped the pony in, and send the cash to her wrapped in it...
