earlier today i traded my 810i with 1gb mspd +RM 200 for howjimmy's O2 XDA II mini..stated in his post its all working properly..when i received hte item..i tested it..the battery was around 39% and it always hanged when playing media files..he said a full charge would fix the problem..so i did a full charge as wel...when the battery level went to about half..it started Hanging again..

within the SAME day i told him to make a refund..but all i could get was my phone back but only RM 100 instead of my original payment of RM200

i'm not saying howjimmy is a bad trader..but i would like you all to advise..

shouldn't i get back my full payment of RM200 instead of only 100?
coz at this moment i'm really short of cash and RM 100 is alot


Dispute settled by refunding RM 40...i didn't want to wait any longer.

2-Jan-2007 to 1-April-2007

update:

so last night i met up with him and he return my w810i and made a payment of RM65 coz he said at that point he didnt have enough cash..


nice enough he said he would keep in touch for further transactions of the refund

basically at this point..

1. i'm at a lost of RM 100
2. i did not get any items
3. petrol cost all oso nvr count (that one i dun wanna count)

so basically RM 100 lost to him for nothing in return

thing is..nicely enough he tries to settle everything nicely..but initially he wasn't even going to refund at all..

however after that he still isn't willing to do a full refund.. he claims that by today he would have to return my w810 to the shop he works at..so thats why i quickly asked him to meet up so i can get my phone back..

i've notified him nicely..i'm hoping he can do something about it as i have sort of 'donated' RM 100 to him just like that and its alot of money

although he's trying to settle it but i won't be contented unless i get back my full refund of RM 200..

as i gave him RM 100 for nothing

he said he wasn't aware of the PDA's faulty problem before...so that i dont wanna count with him..but after he's aware of it he should refund full to me right

here's the PM i sent to him:
QUOTE
k here's the story

yesterday my bro asked bout the trade..he was quite angry about it...so u know how the trade went already rite?

then he's asking for a full refund..coz now i paid RM 100 to you for nothing..and he got really mad so he asked me to contact you ASAP..coz RM 100 is alot of money and i'm short of cash as well now

he told me to post the SD card back to you ASAP as well..so i'm planning on doing that tomorrow morning pls reply ASAP..

coz he was saying the current situation is:

1. i paid you RM 100
2. i didn't get anything at all
3. basically u just got RM 100 easy money

so he's asking me to get back the full RM 200 ASAP yesterday u only gave me RM65 which means u still owe me RM 135

no way you can't refund on a faulty item and say the RM 100 is forfeited

RM 100 is alot of money man..hope u can settle this quick..there's a post in the Trade Dispute forum..i think i gave you the link already..

pardon my words but he's really pissed about this whole thing..

where he sent it to fix?
maybe you can ask him for the contact number so that you can call the office to update the status regularly.

also, try to call him straight instead of pm-ing.

i'll try ask him for the details of the place he sent to repair =)

I know how long its been, i am trying to sell it for RM 1150. And thats minimizing my loss. I told u from the start, no promises on how long its going to take. I don't think i will re open it, lets just say LYN is a bit too hostile and the benifets don't outweigh the cost.


this is what he sent to me..on Jan 28...the deal was on January 2nd....it's seriously going to be one month now..i wonder if he's still active on LYN or has he left already anyway...


Added on February 6, 2007, 1:16 pmits been more than a month now since the deal..he still hasn't updated me on ANYTHING..everytime i ask him for an update, all i get is he hasn't sold it yet and its been a month..he works for a handphone shop near HELP University College (Pusat Bandar Damansara) the shop's name is K-Mobile if i'm not mistaken..how long does it take a person who works for a handphone shop to sell ONE phone? its more than a month already!

No offence but don't you guys think it might be SLIGHTLY unfair for howjimmy as well? To think about it, he already mentioned that no exchange should be given since the beginning but he would be responsible to repair it if there are any problems. It was the TS who REQUESTED the exchange and OFFERED to give RM100 as a form of compensation. Whatever the TS intention was (just to go all out to get his phone back), it was his words. Spoken promises/deals are still deals.

Sorry but I just think that sometimes our opinions shouldn't be so biased and constantly siding only the thread starters. But then again since howjimmy is already willing to take up the blame, why not go to HELP uni to check out his progress? It's not that far after all if you really need your cash back.

i really dont see the point in that coz either way he's gonna say its not sold yet..thats all he ever says..oh btw he's sorta like disappeared from the forums..he closed his thread already and i've been searching for his posts and have yet to find one


Added on March 9, 2007, 1:02 pmok so i need some suggestions here...what do you think i should do now to get my money back? he can keep going on and on forever saying he hasn't found a buyer..any ideas?


Added on April 1, 2007, 5:35 pmagreed to his offer of paying me RM 40 to settle this matter..

i dont want to wait anymore..
