Well - I'd LOVE to review this, but I cannot. Why? - I'll tell you.
Recently, I received some 10% discount coupons from eBay. "GREAT" I thought - "I can afford to spend a few quid and save some money".
Having been scammed in the past with DVD purchases from 'private' sellers (I've been sent copies, damaged, faulty, .... and my latest purchase .... a 30 DVD box set of 'LOST', which was advertised as US/CA Region 1, and I paid £44.00 for, well ..... it turned out to be a cheap Chinese copy, full of pixelations, subtitles and one season was region 1, one set was region 2, one set was region 3, and one set was region 3 with English subtitles set by default).
Anyway - I thought that I'd search out a seller with a vaunted 'Power Seller' logo, by their ID. This, according to eBay, gives you confidence in the service and items received from these sellers. He had 100% feedback, and very good DSR ratings. So I purchased a Scrubs Season 7, Dr. Who series 1 and a Two & a Half Men series 4.
I got my 10% discount.
"EXCELLENT" I thought.
So I waited for them to arrive.
2 days later, the sellers feedback went 'Private'.
I had a bad feeling now.
I wrote to him ...... no reply.
I wrote to eBay ....... no reply.
So I waited
and waited
and waited.
Then ..... the seller was 'De Registered' (NARU).
I checked on the adverts............... 'Item not available, It has been removed'
DAGNABBIT ....... ALL the items had been removed from the eBay site.
Can I leave a feedback?
A most definite NO.
So again ...... for about the 60th time ...... I've been conned, and eBay have hidden ALL traces of yet another Power Seller gone rogue.
Over the past 9 years this has happened to me SOOOOOO many times.
Will I ever learn?
No ..... because I still have faith.
So I've just ordered Two & A Half Men 3 & 4, and I am searching for Scrubs 7 yet again.
Be wary, very very wary with eBays DVD sellers. I have purchased thousands over the years, but thrown hundreds.
Take care :-)
