Do I have any recourse after getting burned on an eBay purchase?

I bought a second phone for work for $150. The phone doesn't power up when it arrives. Battery is completely dead, and it's not a normal battery, so I ask him to send me another one. He does, and the phone works fine. For one day. The phone died, and even the guys at Sprint can't get it to turn on again.

The seller had a 14-day money back guarantee. I had the phone for just over a week. I've messaged him three days in a row now, looking for a refund. Shockingly, no reply. My next step is a more Serious Business email, then try to settle it through eBay's resolution center (usually fruitless), then I will file a fraud report with PayPal, claiming that he knew he was selling me a crap product. That has worked in the past.

Failing all of that, I was thinking of being the high bidder on all of his items for the next month, then never reply when he's looking for payment. (He sells a TON of stuff). If the only penalty is having my eBay account nuked, I'll take it. But if he took the time to sue me, would I legally be on the hook for all the items?

A client just called me and when I answered I simultaneously said "hello" and burped. It came out of nowhere.

Sometimes little GPJ will belch mid-sentence, and the finish her sentence. Never gets old.

For those of you who like WWII history, I thought this BBC documentary was a cool take on the Germans' versus the allies' approach to the fighting. It looks at it from a design vs. manufacturing standpoint.

Went on a double date last night with Non-Reader and my cousin and his GF, the couple that introduced N-R and I.

Went and saw Silver Linings Playbook (holy #### is Jennifer Lawrence so insanely hot in the movie). For those that haven't seen the movie, while there are many comical moments in the movie, there are many more uneasy/tense/dramatic moments touching on some raw emotion. Didn't matter with N-R, she insanely laughed at all of them. At first, I thought it was just a reaction to something uneasy she was feeling and just laughing to cover it up, then it was clear I was giving her too much credit. On the ride home, she asked if I liked the movie, why I liked the movie, and how I would define the type of movie that was.

After a thought out response on my part, she silently looks ahead and says, "We should have seen The Last Exorcism."

I don't care, I'm asking her out again. She's cute and she later texted me, "I'm sorry I stole some of your fries at dinner. I really should be spanked."

We had dinner here Saturday night. The food was awesome but my favorite part was when the chef flipped a shrimp behind his back and it went down the shirt of a gal at another table. Only one other guy at our table even noticed. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. She was completely shuked about where that shrimp came from.

Is this the place where your friends paid TWO RACKS for dinner? And they throw food at you?

This woman is inciting a civil war between your two heads. I'm going to need a pic here to judge if this is worth it. Not reading is one thing, but this woman is approaching Destiney levels of stupid.

Was it intentional? The ninjas at our place here flip it up into their hats and then will flip it into your mouth.

For an appetizers we miso soup (that was spectacular) fried calamari, crab cakes, coconut shrimp and asparagus wrapped tenderloin. For dinner we had a salad,fried noodles, fried rice, grilled vegetables, steak, shrimp and lobster. That doesn't sound good to you?

[St. Louis Bob]

I found out some friends of ours are getting as divorce. I'm freaking shocked by this. They have 3 kids and I think have been married for 15 years or so. They have been together for so long it's hard to imagine them being apart. Their house is actually on my walking route so I go by it pretty much every day. Oh and he more than out kicked his coverage as she is SMOKING hot. She once invited me to go into the bathroom with her at a bar. She pulled her panties down, straddle the toilet the opposite way, started going pee and then cut lines for us which we promptly did. It was neato torpedo.

And you're shocked that her marriage wasn't rock solid?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

I started to think that I shouldn't get too excited because the chances of this working out are probably slim. She lives an hour away

Unless you mean by plane, I don't follow. I get the kid complications, but you're going to have that with any woman. Why is an hour a big deal? Many of us drive that to work every morning, with minimal hope for sex before (or after ) the hour drive back. If anything, I'd think this "negative" should bring you back to the interest level you should be showing with her. Keep seeing her when you can without walking around with a hot poker in your shorts. If things go really well and you eventually decide she's good for something besides providing naked pics that you pass around to your close, personal ifriends who take the time to support you in your time of need, THEN you can figure out how to navigate the long-term speedbump that is an hour of geography. 'Cause if you're good together, then maybe her life won't be in the city anymore. And if it is, well, maybe you wasted a whole bunch of time suffering through some sheet soakings with a sexy, sophisticated, and beautiful woman. I'm sure you can search to find a silver lining in that somewhere. Eventually.

Her husband, my GB, can be a pretty big dickmitten. This story is about 10 years old at least. She's still hot now though. For an old women.

Well look at you giving a thoughtful and helpful response. This settles it, I'm asking her out again for this weekend. If it works out you can be my best man. However, if anything should happen to our GB SLB, I'm dropping BostonGirl and I'm full speed ahead on the PEPPER EXPRESS!!!!!

but still go out again with BostonGirl

Should I be the buzzkill that comes out of lurking to argue that Zooks probably shouldn't mindscrew a desperate 39 year old (Tick Tock!) single mom with a 3 year old?Okay, I'll shut up now real good and sprint back to Lurkerville.

It's like you're the angel on one shoulder and Homer is devil on the shoulder. Now that I feel bad, I guess I won't pursue anything further with BizarreGirl. Besides, I sent her pic and crazy texts to Homer and his response was: "OMG dude. Even for shtick value, it ain't worth it. Run away!!!"Btw.. the Yinka Dare line in your sig always makes me giggle.
