Just a quick one about an ebay thing. I will state that the issue is resolved as I got my pony, but it's left me wondering.
I bought a Sunsparkle/(dance) G2 on ebay and it paid straight away. It was dispatched to me quickly, but almost two weeks later it hadn't arrived.
I contacted the seller and she said she would check the tracking as she always gets it on her packages. She said that, once she had checked it, she could either give me a refund or send me another one as she was selling ones she had doubles of. I said that we should wait to see what the post office said but that I did want the pony if possible.
Two days later she got back to me saying she still had not heard from the post office but was sending out a second one right away and if the first ever arrived I could keep it. The new one arrived the next day. Now the confusing part of this is as follows: the one I received is *exactly* the same as the photos she uploaded for the auction.
I mean, 100% the same. It has a missing eye gem for one, came with the same lil hair clip (not necessarily a give away but still) and the same slight blemishes on the cutie mark. I now suspect that the seller never sent the first one. I know I received the "double" one because the postal date on the big sticker stamp was from the day before.
I'm not going to leave negative feedback or anything as I got what wanted and even what I expected, but is this weird to anyone else? Is it normal to photograph the one your not selling? Or am I just being paranoid.
Just interested in thoughts.
