Same merchant screwed me over with a clear 8 display. It destroyed my logic board and I had to pay out of pocket for repair. He wants me to pay return shipping which is $30 (screen was $65). He is not a very good seller and tells me a sticker he put on the screen is a tear that I made and glued back on.

[@LaskyLabs]

The camera lense is typically welded in by apple, it sucks when you need to swap it. It just falls out... $200?!

oh yeah, i do the exact same thing hugh does, i mainly sell stuff on facebook, snapchat and occasionally ebay, usually everything goes smoothly until you sell something “as is” with no refunds or returns because of some issue with it and someone will buy it not understanding what that means and harass the hell out of you about an issue with it that you clearly stated in the description, i usually end up blocking these people because there are some customers that you don’t want to deal with again

[@garrycole9187]

littlelamp100, I have to disagree, some customers are PITA(pain in the ass). Some are just complainers, while some are scammers. I deal with a lot of customers and we classify them so we know not to do anything out of the ordinary for them and refer them first chance we get. We don't block them like the seller does but statistically 2-5% of customers are like this. It is not worth your time to devote 90% to 2-5%, we concentrate on the other 95%. Also the adage of treat the customers right and they will spread the word. For a PITA customer, 90% of their referrals are also PITA. You want the right people to spread your name.
