Happened to me twice now in less than 1.5 months. Is the economy this bad??

White males between the age of 18 to 30, if you buy something and use it for 6 months and even if it's in pretty good shape and you kept all the original packaging, it is No Longer NEW. Please don't pretend it's new. We all know what sealed factory packaging looks like and what Chinese factory air smells like. Why do white males find this such a difficult concept. Cut it out and stop wasting everybody else's time. Thank you.

We will stop doing this. We didn't realize it was a problem.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Apology accepted. I buy tons of stuff each month on eBay and Gunbroker. I never have problems with white males over 30. In general, the older the white seller the more honest the description. Hispanics may forget to ship stuff promised in the auction, but generally they understand the definition of new. Asians are okay from my experience, although I once bought a fake Breitling watch band from a Japanese guy in Japan represented as genuine. On the positive side, I bought a brand new iPod Touch from an Indian American guy for $70 below MSRP and for some weird reason the guy threw in a $50 Shell gas card that wasn't even part of the auction. Europeans are good too. They will throw in free stuff not in the description. African Americans sellers you get exactly what you pay for, nothing more, nothing less and that's okay. So really, the problem on eBay is only with young white males and occasionally a forgetful Hispanic.
