GF9000

[Ghettoman]

GF9000 came this morning,in a sh*tty cardboard box,wrapped in a single piece of second hand bubble wrap,its not the lovely clean GF9000 with the fancy door sticker like in the auction picture,this has no sticker !! band selector knob smashed off (but the broken part not in the box??) so i`m convinced it was done before it was shipped,left speaker grill dented,controls crackly 2 hell,right hand vu metre is intermittent,the sound on cassette is dull like the heads are dirty,cassette door glass is scratched 2 death like someone has tried cleaning inside the cassette door with a screw driver,but the worst ! is inside the cassette deck its supposed to have a plastic plate to cover all the cogs and crap,that is missing..looks horrible..its a disgrace !! oh and the play button on the cassette deck has chrome chipped... another ebay rippoff !!!! i`ve got it in bits now fixing it all...

 

[Superduper]

Wow. That is not something that I would accept. For me, back it goes.... I may lose shipping but sellers need to understand that there is a limit to what they can get away with. This sounds like pure fraud to me.

Ghetto, sorry to hear that! Where did you buy it? Sounds like a Chinese auction - I've heard similar complaints in the past about auction pictures not being actual item pictures.... That really sucks - hopefully you can get it sorted out

 

[Ghettoman]

Cheers guys,nah not chinese vladi,got it on ebay the other day,after i bought it the seller got banned from ebay,so i immedietly filed a item not recieved dispute,the seller responded and said the radio is on its way,so when i got it ,i cancelled the dispute,i saw it was a mess but i really cant be bothered arguing until the next millenium,it will just grag on and on and on,it would only get me worked up and make me ill,its not worth it..i will have to take it on the chin and do what i can to fix it up..

That sucks Ghettoman but we've all been there and I know what you mean about not being bothered. It's frustrating to say the least but make the best of it and move on, no sense stewing over it and wrecking your day.

Getto...

I may be able to help with your repair job, as I have:

- unscratched cassette door
- entire deck mech (with plastic plate and control buttons inc. PLAY)
- two grills, slightly pitted but not damaged or bent

I'm in the hunt for a new tuner window if you're parting Ewen!



Rock On.

 

[Ewen]

The tuner glass went to Germany a few months back Glue - sorry! Just got the dial plate that sits behind it left. A few selector push buttons (no sliders), and not much else other that what GM wants

Am really down to the leftovers now, and luckily for Ghetto, he seems to need most of what I have!

 

[Gluecifer]

Ahh no worries. Long as the parts go to good homes is all that matters!



Rock On.

You could open an item not as described dispute, just to see if anything happens . . .

 

[Ghettoman]

Cheers again guys,in times like this its good to get a bit of support,and bad as this sounds,its a bit comforting to read that others have had simular things happen to them...least i`m not the only one...

Ewen,You Hero !! i cant beleve you just said you got all that suff !!! what a piece of luck,if its really no good to you i`de have it,you can pm me if you like and gve me a price of what you`de want for it mate,if i would have read this yesterday,i would have said no i dont want it,because i was that mad ! i just wanted to wash my hands of it,but i`ve had a sleep since then,i feel a bit calmer today..
i just felt that i had lost soo much money,and the funny thing is,just before i payed for it,i had a strange feeling "am i doing the right thing by buying this" well obviously not...

Ben,yeh you could be right mate,bit of a shark to say the least,i reckon he could have had 2 9000s,he took a picture of the nice one,then sent me this one,the one in the picture was a beauty,tape door sticker and no smashed band selector switch !!
i really cant be bothered starting up a dispute,i`de be dredding my email inbox,reading all his replies,saying it was mint ect,then i`de say it was`nt,he would say it was ect ect ect ect...it really is`nt worth it mate...
