... two more to go :P


Thanks for reminding me. I just requested my refund.


I received my refund two days ago. Buying on ebay is low risk 5 gold stars to ebay.




I am wg48 but not on my usual pc hence the temp handle.
Thank goodness for Fleming and the fungi.

I don't know who invented mRNA vaccines but they should get a fancy medal and I hope they made a shed load of money from it.

When I have requested a refund from sellers that are no long on ebay, ebay replies with a refund in a day or two.

I filed my complaint with ebay following their procedure, and was all prepared to have to wait a couple of days. In less than 30 min ebay and PayPal both emailed that I have a refund!

I had the exact same experience. Money is sitting in my Paypal account.

Received my microscope and it is everything I ever dreamed of and more.

It appears to be made of the very stuff from which our fondest dreams, hopes and aspirations are forged.

It is, in fact, more than perfect.






Nah, I complained and got a refund actually.

I just wonder if this scam is based on the interest on the money they held for a few weeks, or on the fact that maybe 5% of people who bought these things will forget to complain.
