    Someone here sold me broken IEMs, what can I do?

    Quote:     Quote:   Of course, it goes with out saying but the seller has not yet posted mine neither. So, if I leave a negative but truthful feedback, I'm pretty sure he'll post a negative one for me too.       That's what doesn't work with the feedback system.  The seller...

    Someone here sold me broken IEMs, what can I do?

    I guess you're right. The deal is not worth the hassel. Getting the money back first by paypal would reasure me to not get screwed further by sending the iems back and be left out with no money and no earphones. Now the guy is saying that they were working when he snt them but that's bull. Its...
