No, that was me being sarcastic, which is probably not appropriate...let me explain, I originally posted this to help bachabulu figure out what had happened to the MPC. Obviously all the BS I would like to handle behind the scenes, but at this point I guess it's gone too far.
The MPC was working perfectly before I mailed it out, after I ship it I can't control what happens to it. The pictures verify that it was working and I did play around with it with the Motif sounds that were included...all pads work, the display worked, tip top. Anyone who knows me knows that I don't BS people, I describe what I sell to a T...even if I could have charged more for a less accurate description or whatever. I have a 100% feedback on Ebay since 1999/2000.
I've been completely scammed before and gotten nothing to show. I've also received goods that were damaged and it was on me, not the person that sent it to me. UNLESS where I ordered it was a business, in which I could return it. I am not a business, nor do I profess to be. I also don't have a warranty period, or a separate business account to hold funds for 30 days and offer refunds. This "risk" is reflected in the price of items on the used market. If I was a business I could charge more because of this return period, but the price would be higher. Bachabulu is asking for a full refund + half of the shipping costs. No can do. I agree that it sucks the screen somehow stopped working, but after that much time, after you opened it up and meddled with the inside of it, after you've done whatever with it, I can't be liable. I offered to help you find a replacement screen and get the problem solved which is what is reasonable.
