Date: 27 Mar 92 16:23:58 GMT Organization: Clarkson University Hi every body, please read the following : I sold to Ciao (Texas) a 1.2 floppy drive. My add was very clear that is 1.2 FD high density. He aggreed to buy it for 40$ including shipping plus COD. The exact shipping was 4.75$. I did send the drive when he received it he replayed to me that he thought it was for Amiga Even thought his language was a street language (I have the message) and even it was not my mistake. I told him that he can send it back and I will send him 40-4.75=35.25$ (the price for the drive). He said he wants all his money and send it first. I said no I will send you the price of the drive when I receive it in working condition. (by the way I did't receive the check from UPS yet). After two discusting message from him. Today He send me the following message where He is threatning me by his Father, Lawyer, his position, etc.... Please read this just to be carefull about such people in your dealing. Thank you for reading this message. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >From charon@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu Fri Mar 27 04:32:30 1992 To: hadj@sun.soe.clarkson.edu Subject: Final? I think not. As you'll slowly realize Im a man of principle and honor. As I can see you are not. You leave me no choice. You will be hearing from my lawyer for one. I realize its only $5.00 -- but he just wants to give you some serious court costs since he feels Im in the right. Second, my father is an IRS agent :) So I hope you're a poor student with no income or scholorships -- and that your parents are squeky clean. Because you can definitely be prepared for an audit :) I also hope you have no foreign student discepencies if you are a foreign student. I can't stand people like you. People, who out of their own ignorance and fault, put others in a bad situation. Im stuck, here with a worthless drive and no refund. You enjoy that position and fool yourself with your rationalizations. When someone chooses to do that to me they declare a war -- which ussually lasts until they see the error of their ways or until I feel their squirming has done me justice. Prepare for hell Hadj Ounis. Shouldn't be too much trouble singling out a name like that now should it? Im going to enjoy this, havn't been this pissed at someone in a long long while. Im going to put some serious time into you. Feel flattered, you're going to have a serious majority of my attention for quite a while. Ciao... [and by the way dumbass - my name isn't Ciao - Ciao is goodbye in Italian, which reminds me to tell you that Im Italian (read: I have connections) ] God this is gonna be fun. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Article: 34491 of misc.forsale.computers Path: umeecs!caen!zaphod.mps.ohio-state.edu!qt.cs.utexas.edu!cs.utexas.edu!ut-emx!ccwf.cc.utexas.edu!charon From: charon@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu Newsgroups: misc.forsale.computers Subject: Cheap 1.2 meg drive for sale!
