Hi John.
Just wanted to touch base and make sure your things arrived with no issues or problems.
Everything look okay?

Looks good -- haven't watched it yet, but seems to be fine!
I've actually just contacted Universal about swapping the BTTF discs -- you had the old/original ones with the misframed widescreen stuff. They are still doing the free swap for the corrected ones, so no biggie.

Crap, sorry about that. I completely forgot about that.
Thanks again for the iPod. Its great. I've got about 1,200 songs on it right now, and I've got thousands more to import. Its really great to have while I'm at work.

Sweet. I almost got a second one, but they noticed that my wife and I lived at the same house.

I wish I had waited another week. Sara was looking for a bigger iPod, and I ended up purchasing one from another user here, and right after I mailed payment, you put up that other 20 gig. D'oh.

Yeah, I saw that going through and almost stepped in, but didn't want to step on toes -- especially when I wasn't absolutely SURE I was getting the second one yet. So, I let it go.
I think I'll just EBay it -- no interest here really...

If you think we can work something out, I might be up for it. I'd much rather Sara have something I know is from a dependable source. I have a buddy that wants me to find him a unit as well, so maybe I can take this 15gig I'm getting and resell it to him.
I dunno if I have anything on your wanted list that you'd be interested in. If you are still looking for dvds, I have a recent list in the movie-marketplace forum for trades, or you could look at my library dvd collection - I might consider titles from there available or something. ^_^
Heh, don't need any artwork do ya

Hmmm... Ok -- I'll take a look later and see if I can figure something out. To be honest, I mainly need cash (well, PayPal preferrably) out of this, so I won't be able to do too much of a trade probably. But, I'll take a look.
And, I'd love to buy some artwork, but I'm cheap that way.

Heya.
This iPod deal with the other person is turning bad - the unit arrived and it's condition is pretty poor.
Is that 20gig still available? I might have to work someting out with you.

Yes, I haven't done anything with it yet -- haven't had time for EBay listing it and not much interest here because of the higher value. Feel free to suggest something.

I'll keep you updated.
This guy isn't helping any. I've voiced my displeasure, asked for some kind of refund, as this unit is clearly not what I had expected, and he's avoiding the situation. All he's been doing is telling me is that the unit works fine, and I should trust him.
Its scuffed on both sides very badly, there is a dent on the back, which really worries me. He says he never noticed it had a dent, but its pretty obvious, and its large enough that it looks like it was either dropped, or something was dropped on it. I'm worried about the harddrive and its ability to function. One side looks like it had been taken apart and put back together, and even the headphones have one side of them hanging on by their internal wiring. I'm going to suggest canceling the trade, him sending my money back, and me sending the unit back. For the money I paid, I expected something in much better condition.
anyway, sorry to digress.
I'll keep you updated.

Any word on this, Sid? I have someone else interested, but I told them that you were first in line. Let me know when you know... Thanks!

well, things are ugly, and I've got the DRC involved. I really don't know what the outcome is going to be on this, and I don't want to hold you back from anything.
This looks like it could turn into a lengthy battle because this guy simply isn't cooperating. So I don't no if/when I'd get the cash back.

Any luck, Sid? I know you've got some stuff going on with the person you bought it from. Let me know how it goes. Good luck!

The kid won't respond to me. I'm giving him another few days before I toss up a BTR on him. If you have a chance to sell it now, don't let me drag you on. I'm a little upset with myself that I became so lax I didn't check out this guys trading history first.

I can wait a bit more. I've been following your situation with him -- hopefully it will work out for you.

Well, by default, all Moderators have DRC access. But I've been avoiding getting involved with your situation, of course.
