those crazy chinese

[davidc4430]

i bought an item from a chinese seller for $1

he advertised this item as 4pcs for $1, these are easily found at around $2.50 for 4 so at $1 was a good price.

so after waiting 2 months my items arrive, but not 4 only 1.

so i leave a very rare negative feedback.

so far ive had 4 messages begging me to remove the feedback. hes offered a full refund.

me, i think sellers need to adhear to their edverts so i will not remove the feedback.

on checking his feedback hes got 18 negs and 22 neutrals and 2217 positives in 1 month, i'm wondering if all the non positives are getting his sob story about it hurting his business which is his only way to support his family.

Just out of curiosity, were there any steps between those two?

What does the description say?

Not the listing title as a lot of  listing titles are not for the item/s for sale these days,(they are just to get you

to look at their listings and then charge a higher price).

They generally have a part in there that says includes x amount or is for x amount,(quite often it is for only

one item as it's a multy listing and you have the choice to choose up to 4 at a $1 each).

Post the item number so others can see if they did the wrong thing or not.

David, it was the fish tank clip, yes?

Hmm. The listing certainly states that it's 4 pieces, both in the title AND twice in the body of the listing.

Didn't this same item come up in a member's question a while back for only supplying 1 when there was 4 in the listing???

Definitely showing for 4.

Good on you for leaving the neg to warn others.

The seller begging saying it's to support family etc., he is probably very wealthy and just spinning anything to get what he wants.

And the scams from Chinese are growing, not just here in Aus but around the globe. 

The stories I have been told would curl your toes.

@padi, OP was the first buyer in the listing I looked at, though it may have been a relist (didn't check that, but did F3 for other FB comments on the same item to try and see if it was seller error or other buyers had the same complaint, but gave up after several pages x 200).

It did say 4pcs in title and description though.
