Question for Ronnie (rklok on eBay)

Hi Ronnie,

I've sent you an e-mail asking if you can send me MSX computers that I won and paid for them and for shipping. It is several days later, and I still didn't heard nothing back... I'm starting to get worried. I bought three MSX computers and numerous Konami games from you in past and never had any problems until now. Please get in touch in me, I don't want to be worried about my computers.

Auctions in question are: 5130666964 and 5131791911

I want to buy more items you're selling right now on eBay, but I need reassurance that all is fine with my previous purchases.

Thank you in advance,

- Adrian

Yes, that's not very smart indeed... You just sent ONE e-mail ? Why didn't you send at least another one ? I'm sure he's going to get back to you.


PS: Panasonic FSA1 WSX is in my opinion the most beautiful MSX ever

Well, he sometimes takes his time, but he's a great seller... I don't think you should put a post like this on a public forum on the 27th of November for an auction that ended the 19th and another one that ended the 24th... He prolly planned to ship the whole lot together or something...

He's still alive, I got an e-mail from him the day before yesterday. I can assure everything's fine ^_^. I'll pay the man a visit tomorrow; after all I live in the same town (and I've got to collect Maison Ikkoku Final and GraphSaurus... )

Sonic. stop the drama queen act and read my post again. It is polite, non-threatening and totally justified for someone who paid serious coin for goods, then followed up by e-mail, and didn't got answer in a few days.

It's not a drama-queen act, it's about having a little decency. But since I would prolly die trying to eplain what that is to you, I won't even try

Well, I hope I'll get my stuff. I Before bidding I asked Ronnie if it's ok to bid and pay, but tell later my new address, since I was moving to a new apartment. He told "Ok, no problem", but still sent it to my old address. I didn't knew that, and now that I'm moving to new place, I sent him an e-mail "Ronnie, please send me MSX computers I won and paid for about a month ago to my new address". I got no answer for about 5 days, and then boom! "I've sent them about a month ago to your old address"...

The lesson for future eBayers: if you plan to move or have any over deviations from normal bid-buy-wait-receive cycle, better don't bid, since eBay sellers are so busy, they can't remember all agreements and conditions. Wait until you're in normal buying position (stable address, no need for any delays) and then start looking for the item you want.

Sad for me, but I guess highly educational...

For all the normal people, I agree, Ronnie is the best MSX (and now generic Jap-geek) stuff seller period. No one compares to him. He is the person who dumped the price level for MSX2+ computers from about 200 euro to 75 euro, and for TurboR GT from about 500 euro to about 300. Long live to RKLOK and lots of success in business and personal life.

BUT RONNIE, PLEASE KEEP YOUR PART OF AGREEMENT OR JUST TELL TO PEOPLE NOT TO BID IF THEIR REQUEST IS TOO HARD TO TRACK/MANAGE...

Thank you all, this is the real end of the show. Applauses, tomatoes and roses are welcome as usual. Boom!

As you say tomatoes are welcome: I'd like to throw one to you because you didn't have the decency to solve this with Ronnie privately. No one needs to know about Ronnie making a mistake. It hurts Ronnie's reputation which is a bad thing as Ronnie is doing a lot of good for the MSX scene (as you state yourself). Discussing this in public doesn't solve anything, it's only hurting Ronnie.
