Take back something you sold on Kijiji?

[bigbadboss101]

So I sold 8G bank of Mac Memory on Kijiji. I included a link to the Corsair site that stated what computer the memory is good for. Also in the ad I included the model number, DDR3 1333. Price was $30 for the 8G. The guys asked for the bank of memory that I took out from my laptop and I said sure take the 2GB as well.

He phones back and say the memory is not compatible with his computer. I asked what year is his iMac. He suggested he comes and get his $ back. I told him no, just put in on Kijiji and you get your $ back or more. He stated no he would not sell it on Kijiji. I had to explain to him I am not Memory Express and I am not going to let someone take some computer component home, try it and bring it back.

Some people are quite reasonable, others not so much. Argh.

Tell him to go pound sand. He can list it on Kijiji just like you did.

[bigbadboss101]

Well, I was more polite than that. He didn't give me a great vibe though. He was taking $ out of his wallet and asked me how much. I said $30 and he said are you sure? Not $25? Meanwhile his hson (20 something) was standing off to the side looking at me with a stone face.

[schocker]

Sounds like a moron if you provided specs. Tell him to f off.

[Team_Mclaren]

I'd laugh at him.

[pheoxs]

Don't bother. For all you know he swapped your good one in for his defective one and is giving that back.

[suntan]

Never sell computer equipment to Mac users. I'm serious.

[Hero_X]

You don't owe him shit. You explained the situation and wrote all the compatible models. It's his job to check, not yours.

Tell him to fck off :thumbsup:

THIS.

[J-hop]

I don't know. If he knew where I lived then yea I might give him his money back (assuming he was as creepy as you said).

If not, screw him. As you said, you aren't running a business, there is no return/exchange policy.

[bigbadboss101]

Well he did come to the house to pick it up. He asked me "do you want them back" and I replied I have no use for them. He asked me the same questions 3 times.

[dirtsniffer]

Sounds like he used them to trouble shoot a problem. Fuck him.

I never meet Kijijidiots at my house and no refunds

[NoPulp]

$30 restock fee... :D

[R-Audi]

Ive returned tires once, after a shop pointed out an issue that I missed.. but not something like electronics etc.

[jacky4566]

Did you get a shot of the serial numbers? If you wanted to entertain a return make sure the serial numbers match.

But yea $30. whatever. I once spent $100 on a dead video card. Should have know it was too good to be true.

How do you still have only one rating after that massive garage sale on saturday? :whipped: :whipped: :whipped:

[revelations]

We buy/sell literally 100s of things a year on Kijiji.

I've taken things back the same day if it was obviously broken once they got it home (sometimes I dont get a chance to test everything).

But if someone bought the wrong item by mistake, that's never my problem. I've done the same and would never expect a refund.

[Disoblige]

Sounds like a cheap idiot who didn't do his research. The fact that he was trying to haggle you at the point of sale is just embarrassing as well.

[lilmira]

Tell him that you already spend the money and offer him half a bag of chips because that's all you have.

:werd: Doesnt matter if its a small thing or a car for that matter, i always meet at the starbucks down the street. Kijiji is full of crazies and if the product is as advertised you can gfy if you think you can get a refund.

[klumsy_tumbler]

Add me to the "go pound sand, no refunds" camp. Especially on something that cheap... I don't understand how something $30 is worth anybody's time to try to get their money back :dunno:

[max_boost]

just ignore/delete etc.

[bigbadboss101]

Dude just texted me and said it is now working. Duh.

[Tarrantula]

Probably put his old one back in by accident. Realized he never put in the new one at all. :dunno:

[Dalking]

He should have read the ad before buying what you had then. His problem.

[K3RMiTdot]

Happened to me once - Sold a brand new STILL SEALED gear VR that I got from my Galaxy S7.

He goes home opens it and says i used it.

I told him to go eat shit.

May discourage a lot of these Kijidiots for doing something stupid.

Mess with him, text him saying you'd like it back now for $10.

Cash & Carry, you ain't Costco with an easy returns policy.
