this is one hell of an epic tread

few hundred RM for a "Safe Trader" tag in conclusion = not worth it plus the time you spend on it. in the end you still losing it

from the 1st page I already know seller will find all excuses to run away by involving 3rd party. but this kind of tactic already too common & won't work

kudos to TS for being so persistence in hunting down this kind of irresponsible seller unlike other forumer which being conned = without further drastic action

well I do believe in karma, good or bad thing(s) you did to other people will come back to you in any sort of form either on your or love ones

my advise to seller, stop twisting and turn as you don't have much room left, RM500 not worth all the trouble. just refund and put an end to this. reputation take time to build and only take one moment to tarnish, guess it's too late for you to realize

to buyer, play your part as well. next time when make a deal/purchase, do inspect the product in details & not only come back to seller after few months

peace
