aiks??? waahhhh seems that the stories keep on adding more and more ajinomoto eh? Actually I'm not going to claim he said this or he said that as it does not carry weight if I do, it will never end.

instead I am just going to state the facts. Plain and simple. I'll state my facts followed by the conclusions.

1) Fact - The laptop in question is in fact not my own but accuired via an aquaintance asking me to help sell it off as with many other laptops (and other gadgets if sell here)
    Conclusion - I have no knowledge of the laptops history thus have to do a fair amount of testing.

2) fact - What ever items and accessories I get is passed on to the buyer.
    Conclusion - So if I get a compatible accessorie, then its the very same accessorie that will be passed on to the buyer.

3) Fact - If during my testing period, I find that something is faulty then I would NEVER proceed to advertise it.
    Conclusion - I tested it (same way I tested laptops for years) and it was working fine I was handling it. Charge, recharge, battery life... you name it.

4) Fact - It has been a long time practice/habit/policy/firm belief of mine never to give personal warranty as I wish to protect myself to buyers who neglect/mishandle/mod/did not do homework or simply just suka-suka suddenly just dont like the item I have sold
    Conclusion - Now how do I prove this? you guys can check my history here :
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=Sear...ult_type=topics

unfortunately It doesn't go all the way back to 2006 trades. All of the topics will state "no warranty". "test kaw-kaw" and in this particular case I mentioned "can test until satisfied" But think rationally, if someone has made it a point or habit of doing deals for past years, why would this new found case be so special and different? why change my habits now after so many years of successful trades? I'll let my past speak on my behalf (you won't see me editing my past threads, theres a date stamp to provide authenticity)

5) Fact - I am a bit chit-chatty during COD (I like to make friends) Occasionally I have uttered "if you need to ask dont hesitate to call" or uasually "if anything give me a call" and yes there was case of one of my buyers calling me up complaining "bro, kata windows XP license ori tapi kenapa keluar windows genuine warning?" I answered his query and made it known that his OS was Ori but he went and installed "ahem" MS office.
Conclusion - I really cant help it if a buyer only hears what he wants to hear. I cant do much when people put words in my mouth ans "ajinomoto.

6) Fact - When I said I dont know, ITS TRUE!!! I REALLY DONT KNOW!! how else to say it? (see fact 1 and 2).
Conclusion - But of course your ajinomoto had to add from me saying "don't know" to "don't care" which of course makes look bad.

7) Fact - I really do not trust your so called "technician" from "adapter" to "charging chip" and now to "battery??? Seriously a lot of spice there. Are you sure its not your technician that is robbing u right under your nose with all these problems and prices? this is not the first time we all have heard of unethical technicians and repair centres
Conclusion - hmm not much to conclude here since the technician is "always rite" rite?

8) Fact - I am being rudely accused of something I did not do, and TS has already resorted to defamation.
    Conclusion - I was actually also going to point out the fact that TS had already went to see technician, repaired this and ordered that, but then again its his laptop rite? So I guess this point is not valid.

9) Fact - I too believe in "Karma" or "Qada' dan Qadar" but I also believe I am in the right. I have adopted various steps and policies to protect myself from things like this to happen to me.
    Conclusion - I too have learnt my lesson from this "peristiwa hitam" in my life. I hope other sellers (those who do not have the luxury of a shop, spares and resources to provide warranty) to learn from this.

10 Fact - Lets not change to topic of this thread, coz come to think of it I AM an "IRRESPONSIBLE SELLER" this I admit. why?
because I cannot be responsible for the item that has been rightfully sold and handed over to my buyers.
Conclusion - I'm not running away, Infact I'll own up and face this head on. future buyers of mine are most welcome to click my siggy and read this topic.

and to conclude this I would like to apologize on a few things and admit to some of my mistakes.

1) My first mistake is that I composed the sale thread myself instead of using the template provided ( I was in a hurry huhu ) If I had used the template, I dont think I could have missed the "Warranty:" part. If you scan through my previos topics that used the template I usually put "no warranty" (see fact #4). But in my defense I did clearly put "test until satisfy" which is another habit of mine.

2) My second mistake was to proceed with the deal. As you know this was a trade and there was a miscommunication on who was to top up who. My gut was telling me to cancel it. Damn I wished I had cancelled it and kept the lappy. If I had kept it and the laptop fried when it was in my hands then I wouldn't have to go through all this. you know its like" better to drive and knock into a tree then to another persons car" so troublesome

3) And lastly to blastpadt I am really sorry that unfortunate event had to happen. I truly am. I wish this didn't happen but some events have already taken place that seem irreversable to me. Looks like i'll have to bear the consequences.

tired ady pheww
