    FS If you sell somthing it should be what you say it is!

    I recently bought a piece of gear from a HF member(name not really important ) we PM'd back and forth and was told the brand was from a reputable cottage vendor But after receiving the item It was in fact not from the vendor I was told it was from, but a DIY project .....Bottom line If you are selling something on here make sure it is what you told the person it was!

    If something was misrepresented, and the seller won't take it back, please PM a moderator. We can't get your money back, but we can hopefully keep it from happening again.

    I've had both good and bad experiences with the FS threads here. If you payed via paypal, you could open up a dispute on the payment that way to get it resolved. It's worked for me in the past.

    The above comment by angrysparrow backing up the buyer or even the seller says a lot. I have had no problems. Good Karma is beautiful thing. It will all work out.
    I like refried beans. That's why I wanna try fried beans, because maybe they're just as good and we're just wasting time. You don't have to fry them again after all.

    99.9% of the folks who sell on the For Sale thread do the right thing. Mr. Tattoo I hope you get your money back.

    I haven't had much issues to be honest. Very lucky in that respect. I did have an item arrive more worn than I anticipated but this was in no way a misrepresentation by the seller. I have also had an item sent to me that was listed as one item and ended up being another (doubt the seller knew but it ended well since they were both of the same value and items i wanted).

    My biggest issues have always been shipping and duties!!

    Hope it works out for you.

    I have had nothing but good experiences buying from the for sale forums here..This is my first disappointment..

    I have been in contact with the seller and because of the medical/cash issues of the seller I am going to take the hit and not pursue a return of my $$ my way of putting a little $ in the Karma bank.

    I am sorry this happened to you.

    Personally this leaves a bad taste in mouth. To have something misrepresented, and the transaction not made right for whatever the reason, doesn't sit right with me.

    Unfortunately not naming names leave it open to being a guessing game with who you had the transaction with.

    Years ago i had a transaction go sour with a misrepresented item (not on hammock forums) and after months of back and forth and a LOT of reasons why from the seller as to why money not coming forward. I finally never got my $ back. They were banned. I never pursued legal action but i chalked it up to lesson learned.

    If you feel this transaction is resolved then good.
    If the Moderators feel the transaction is resolved, then i will have pause for thought the next time i post "i'll take it"

    In theory, there's no difference between theory and reality.
