ok im going to vent here..
maybe good to stand back a few feet.so we have a washing machine.
we want to sell the washing machine.
washing machine works fine.
list washing machine on sell your stuff berlin facebook group.
woman wants to buy washing machine.
paypals us the money.
DOES NOT COME TO INSPECT WASHING MACHINE.
Wants it delivered, we put her in contact with a guy who has been picking up a lot of our stuff lately for other people.
We do one last load of laundry.
Guy comes to pick up machine, has to wait 10 minutes while it ends.
Guy moves machine to van, delivers it to woman.
30 minutes later, woman calls telling us it doesnt work and she wants her money back.
After accusing us multiple times of scamming her and being generally bad people, she is demanding we pay her the money back.
The washing machine was working when it left her and was taking into the custody of HER EMPLOYED DRIVER..
He moved the item, he installed the item.
Responsibility ends once it leaves our house..
The issue is between her and the driver.. not us.
We sold her a working machine, the drive picked up and can verify it was working as he had to wait for it to finish.
In the end she didnt pay the driver, so he is pissed at us. but really, its nothing to do with us.
she expects us to refund her and take the broken washing machine back.
all this, and we are leaving berlin for good in under 96hours.
yep, fuck off lady.
i dont care.
our part of the transaction is above board..
- machine could have broke when moving. if vibrated to much, n not packet well to prevent drum vibration.yurimon
- or it could be a scam of some kind. replacing a working machine, or trying to get money back thinking you will give up on the machine?yurimon
- used stuff better to sell cash.yurimon
- hope its not a return scam where they get merchandise complain want money back you say no. they file with paypal. if paypal refunds machine free machineyurimon
- no paypal scam, they had the option to pay for buyer protection but opted to save the cash and just do friend transfer. This whole thing is between themautoflavour
- needless to say, our stress levels are crazy high at the moment..autoflavour
- if the machine broke when moving, then its an issue she has with the driver.. it was working when it left our place.autoflavour
- generally washing machines need to be packed a certain way when moved to prevent the drum vibration. it can break the machine if the drum is loose in a truck.yurimon
- only thing i can think of something ruff happening during the move. when you get a new machine they pack it for certain parts not to move in shipping.yurimon
- In my experience (moving 3 machines, I'm so worldly) there are plastic bolts on the back that secure the drum for moving.MrT
- yes, what MrT said. I had to move mine about 3 times in sao paulo, and you have to install the bolts before moving, if you forgot it, then it is your faultfeel
- return the money or pay to fix the machine, i know it sucksfeel
- fuck that, machine left our care, game over.
and besides, woman calls today.. every is working. 6 hours of psycho bitch for no reason. . fucking nutjobautoflavour - i didnt have to install anything, bolts or otherwise.. if her driver had to install bolts, then he should have.. fuck that. we didnt move it,autoflavour
- in the end, there is a fuse or something that stops the machine turning on for a few hours after being moved if it tilted too much.autoflavour
- but this fucking psycho was all nuts at usautoflavour
- what did you sell it for?hotroddy
- this is how democrats do business,, buyer beware.yurimon
- what a stupid shit thing to saymonospaced
- it was joke dont get your democrite fannies in bunch. report to your closest safe space for immediate decompression of snowflake feels.yurimon
- so much stupid, and you won't stopmonospaced
- is saturday your butt hurt day of week?yurimon
- Look who's talking.monospaced
- "Wants it delivered, we put her in contact with a guy" - If you recommended the guy and he fucked up by not using transit bolts, then she's right to be pissed!mort_
- leaving to where?!oey
