I won this auction for what is supposedly a box flat, but in my opinion just a nice box.

http://www.ebay.nl/itm/320983871470?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_500wt_1204

Now the guy has sent me this message:

Hello,
I am very sorry but I just got out the flat to pack it ready for shipping and unfortunately it has been water damaged from a leak in my study roof :(.We have had torrential rain here and my home has been affected.Please do not send payment.Sorry about this.
Thanks.

I was sceptical and this morning sent him this:

Could you send me a picture of the damage to the box so I can decide for myself whether I still want it or not?

Haven't heard from him yet, though I did receive an anullment request through ebay which I declined.

So what do you think?
 
If he doesn't send you pictures he's lying. Simple. Make sure you neg him. :twisted: (if he doesn't send pictures that is)
 
He is a member on RS. I remember him peddling this as a box flat in their sales section....but then he stated he had folded it and assembled it :cry: If I can find the RS thread...I will post it.
 
The dirty dog, reminds me of when I listed something in the wrong place, infact I listed lot of things in the wrong place, and only got a pound for it, so I told the guy my dog had chewed it and refunded him, yes I know it's wrong, but I lost out alot that day :)
 
Sounds like he is trying to trick you. I would pay and if he will not mail it to you. Then give him some bad feedback.
 
Sounds like a bit of a dodgy reply to me Emiel. Let's hope you get those photos to prove hos claim. If not o think you know the answer.

I hope you get it sorted buddy.

All the best. Chris.
 
He's clearly a bit of a spastic based on that RS post, I wonder if he also sells MOC's that he's only opened once :lol:
 
No, you can neg him anytime. Only time you can't neg him is if he logs a non-payment claim against you and Ebay find in his favour
 
I would Neg him now, he have had enough time to get those pictures. If he get them later then you can talk with ebay and change the feedback to a better one if you want to do that :wink:
