usedHONDA 4 Posted June 12, 2009 Author Share Posted June 12, 2009 Today, I was notified by USPS that my package has arrived (a white PS3 controller I bought from eBay) all the way from Hong Kong. I go to my mailbox, and I find a package that's unusually small. I open it to see not a PS3 controller or anything related to a Playstation, but instead, an iPhone case. An ugly one at that (plaid). So I go to the seller's feedback page, and it seems that the same exact thing has happened to 11 other people, all giving negative feedback. Waiting for a response from the Chinese guy.

Crimson 4 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 NEVER buy electronics (or virtually anything else, for that matter) on eBay from Hong Kong. You'll regret it. Quote Create A Professional-Looking Product Advertisment Mockup flickr | Deviant Art Link to post Share on other sites

Gamer_World14 1 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Ouch, that has gotta suck... and the ipod case probably took 5 cents to make. How much money did they sell your "controller" for?

usedHONDA 4 Posted June 12, 2009 Author Share Posted June 12, 2009 I actually got the "controller" at a really nice price (cheaper than Wal-Mart and even Amazon) for ~$43. It's all a funny situation, really. I'm pretty sure it was a simple mistake (he's had all positive feedback until two days ago when all the people's "controllers" arrived at their homes). By the way, looking at the iPhone case closely, the material is actually of some quality. The plaid has an almost fabric-like texture to it (from what I can feel without removing any more packaging). Still ugly. Quote "The greatest thing about the Internet is that you can write anything you want and give it a false source." ~Ezra Pound twtr | dA | tmblr | yt | fb Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's because every other word is a link to another page of the wiki, referencing another trope. I won't understand the definition of this trope unless I read the description for that one, and so on, and so on...
