Sold 5090 On eBay - Buyer says its faulty

[GIBURROWS]

I think we need a courier complaints thread!!!!

I had a DHL guy leave a parcel at the front door of my building(I'm on the top floor of 3) and signed my name, they ignored my complaint completely *******

I ordered something from OCUK which came via DPD. The delivery guy came to the door didnt ring the video door bell, didnt knock on the door just turned around and walked off logged it as no one in didnt leave card. We were in and it was recorded on our video doorbell and he actually looked at the video doorbell. Put a complaint in and sent them the video of their driver not knocking/ringing and got £25 compensation and an apology.

Yeah probably need to post this in a courier thread somewhere as prob be loads of examples

I have had several DPD delivery's marked as "delivery attempted" When my cameras show no one even coming near my house to attempt delivery.
DPD did give me compensation one time and another they sent me a cookie.

I think this thread is straying off topic a bit.

I’ve only had one slightly dodgy experience selling on EBay … I think I’ve been a bit lucky.
I sold a known working motherboard / CPU / memory as a set - feedback from the buyer was “It Won’t Boot”.

Multiple emails later … asking about the PSU and other stuff … finally it turns out that the first thing the buyer did was remove the CPU I sent and replace it with his own.

He put back the CPU that I sent out and it worked perfectly.

Glad it all worked out ok for you.

I sold a CPU on eBay a long time ago. The buyer received it, took it to a well known retailer to have it installed and they told the buyer it was faulty.

The bios defaulted it to something like 400Mhz instead of 1Ghz. I explained how to resolve it, the buyer was happy and couldn't believe the retailer didn't know something so simple.

I was for sure thinking that this was gonig to end badly.

I just tried to seel something on the bay and they no longer wanted it after buying it and so requested a cancel and that ment that i owed the shipping label cost allready. so i payed £3 todo sweet FA. never again.

As expected not a dyed in the wool scammer just a dyed in the wool numpty.

I had the same with a 5090 FE. Guy said it wasn't detected/working. I tried to assist him to get it working, i was sure it juat wasn't seater correctly in the pcie slot. Anyway he ended up returning it and it worked fine. He agreed to pay return postage which was fair but i was out of pocket for my postage.

I had this, luckily I live 5 minutes from the DPD depot so I went over there and complained... They sent the driver back to my house after he finished his route, he didn't look happy

 

[mrk]

Maybe the guy was busting for a poo or something?

 

[DD_Crash]

Delivery drivers can vary a lot. Mostly good from amazon but a bit unpredictable from others

 

[hlennie]

i would still complain to ebay the fact you had to pay for the return and the item that works

what kind of numpty tested it in the computer shop.

glad it was not a barebone card returned to you

I wonder if some of them just zone out and think they've rung or something, though no idea why they don't then try knocking, etc. I had it a few weeks back with an Amazon driver - after the status changed to couldn't deliver I checked the CCTV and they came to the door did not ring or knock just stood there for a minute or so then walked off again.
