In a nutshell: I bought a Marc Jacobs bag that she stated in her auction was like brand new, only used once, and the only problem was a little tiny pen mark. I asked her if I could buy it now, and she set up a buy it now price for me.
Then I receive the bag; yes there is a pen mark that is not "tiny" and there are loose threads and 3 grease/oil marks around the body. Feeling as if I had by screwed, I emailed her and said I do nto want this bag, it was mis-represented and I will pay for shipping back.\
Then starts an onslaught of emails from her, syaing she did me a big favor by setting up the buy it now for me and there were many other interested buyers. I told her all I wanted was a refund. We were getting no where, and finally I said I would accept a partial refund...thinking like 10, 20 dollars tops. She emails me and says she wil refund me 60 bucks. I accept it.
We leave + feedback for eachother.
I study the bag and realize that I can fix the few loose threads and I take a top quality leather cleaner and go over it with a fine tooth comb to make it look immaculate. In the end, I realize that the bag is too small for me as it can only fit like a wallet, a cosmetic bag comfortably.
I re-list the bag on Ebay stating that I bought it from another Ebayer who used it once, and that I never used it and that the bag is in like new condition with the excpetion of the pen mark (which is significantly less noticable now, since I worked on the bag)
Given that is the same bag, I used the same pictures she used because I do not have a digital camera right now.
She emails me and says what I did was fraud and she is an attorney and she will turn me into Ebay trust and safety, call the police, call the US attorney General, and attempt to sue me.
Uh. My brain is spinning too much to even think straight right now.
Could you ladies give me some feedback on this situation?
I realize her claims about what she will do (i.e. US attorney) are ridiculous
But...did I screw up somewhere
Or..Is this just a really screwed up, moron woman who is mad becuase I might make more money off her bag than she did?
Any response will be appreciated
