Ripped off and MAD!!!

[ZapTheMad]

I purchased a tank off ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...EBWN%3AIT&rd=1

Not the best deal considering that a tank just like it sold for $30 less 2 days later (god I wish I waited). I was hesitant to pay at first because of his feedback. I wasn't worried so much about the feedback, what I noticed is that this tank supposedly sold with a different auction! So I get his phone number and call him to talk about it before I pay. He told me that the guy who bought the gun couldn't come up with all the money, so he sold the gun without the tank and this tank was leftover. OK, I trust him, I send payment.

It comes in the mail today and now I'm f'in pissed!!!



Does anyone know if this tank is repairable? I am assuming since it goes quite deep into the fiber that it should be condemned.

Ok, Some steam is blowing off. I'm going to paypal and filing a complaint to get my money back. To bad this is going to cost me at least $25 to do so

I've bought a lot of stuff off ebay and this is the first time I got screwed.
I learned my lesson and I'm never buying from a low feedback seller again.

Looks pretty deep to me, I think that tank is hosed.

The tank is worthless and would be condemned. No field will fill it in that condition and it can't be repaired.

Phone him first and tell him your problem. Demand that you get full refund plus shipping. If not, then file a complaint.

damn dude, that bottle is FUBAR!

but the reg might still be good if you can locate another bottle.

lesson learned...dont buy on ebay from people with negative feedback like that and with so little feedback in general.

sorry man

[Muzikman]

Yeah, tank is probably shot. My question is did it look like it happened during shipping? If so, go for the insurance.

Tank is not repairable. That gouge looks to be almost all the way down to the aluminum. Sorry to hear about that bro. Hopefully the guy will be straight up with you.

I personally will not do business with anyone that doesnt have at least 20 feedbacks.

[skife]

if the fiber is torn its dead, if not then throw some 2 part epoxy on it and it'll be good as new

[ZapTheMad]

The good news is that my stiffi just came today too and all is well with that

[Chronobreak]

zap u havent had muck buying luck have ya? i sugest buying things from ao'ers with alot of post and good feedback

[C_22]

Sorry to see that bro. That tank is pretty much useless.

[Recon by Fire]

You bought from someone with a 1/5 bad feedback?

[spadge67]

even if you dont get near as much money back, as long as HE dosent get any money...THATS what counts...

[.tMan]

off the topic a tad but
if that tank is shot I will gladly take that reg if you want to sell it.
email me or PM me if you do

It looks like the bottle was shot, really! It looks like someone shot at it with a pellet rifle...

That looks terrible. Definately talk to paypal (if thats how you paid) over the phone right away, send in a complaint, do antyhing you can.

Also, if you paid with credit card through paypal, ask for a chargeback on it. They will give you your money back right away.
