eBay Horror Story

[FMD]

I am sure some of you are aware of Olga's recent nightmarish ebay experience involving her much talked about auctions including the record breaking Dall'Osso. If not, log into Rafed's facebook fig group page and prepare yourself to be repulsed. It just seems to prove that the lowest common denominator always wins out. Water will always find its lowest level and crap floats to the top. Uggh!

Wow! I have read about this elsewhere.
How do I join the Rafed fb group?

Olga also posted her experience at f4f:

I was considering selling some extras this spring/summer on eBay to recoup some costs, but all this nonsense going around has made me reconsider. I'll figure something else out...

I think Olga get "Switch-A-Roo" someone should tell her to finely inspect returned tree. Any scam who see an item sell for tis much and see all hype about it they are not stupid. I had happen to me. Guy buy $1200 home theatre receiver from me it was almost brand new and working. He get it and say 2 day later he wants refund does not work. Ebay force me to return and when I get back it no work. I take it to repair shop to fix and man say "someone switch main board with mine" Cazzo... Now I contact eBay and they say nothing can be done because I didn't open claim within correct time window.
So tis why I say she need to check tree for make sure is same EXACT tree. She say was black covered in soil which sound like trying to cover up fake tree returned or that tree was broken.. Was it broken enough to make cuttings and still return roots any leafed top? Are all the roots there? Is a tree and if they known what they Are doing they can regrow tree from smallest portion and return rest of tree for full refund. Is sad she is nice lady

Feel bad for Olya, she is a very nice lady. Have also sold a LOT of plants to the same Russian folks and have never had any problems at all.

One thing though Frank the record breaking Dall'Osso did not go to these same people, a forum member here bought it (not me) and not that crazy Hershell either
