So, i have been saving for ages... wanting to buy a computer... because my one sucks more than is even possible, its good, but because it wants attention it just takes 20-30 minutes to turn off and freezes all the time. So i saved up £500, then next day £30 is gone, because apparently paypal said I didnt pay for a broken 360, when I did, it even took it out, so now I had about £470, and ended up spending £330 at ebuyer on computer parts, and £150 at novatech (I spent less there because I have never used them before). Since novatech are not :censored:s, even though my address wasn't verified, they used paypal and it went through just fine, and was dispatched the next day. But ebuyer, i swear to god, they are retarded, first, it refuses it because my address isnt verified, but other than that it would have worked perfectly, so I verify my address, and an hour later, I try agian, but then a random error comes up, and you know how paypal is retarded and never tells you whats wrong... I double checked everything, all is fine, so I just order it with my card instead because paypal is just pissing me off, and my £335 was on my card, I check the order next morning, there is only £5 on my card, and the card order says theres no money in my card, and what actually happened is that even though paypal took out my money, then refunded it (Apparently...), it took the money out of my card for no reason, and I have been waiting a week for it to come back, and whilst waiting, ebuyer charges me another £10 for no reason, and it overdrafts my account and now I owe my back £30, and ebuyer still havent given me back my money.
I doubt there going to pay me back, they pretty much have to pay for my overdraft, since they took an extra £10 for no reason (I even emailed them about it, they just ignored it) and I only had £5 on my card
This crap always happens, whenever I expect something to happen, the oppisite always happens...
So now I was so happy to get a quad core gaming beast, that actually worked so I could do some designing on it, but no, ebuyer :censored:s it up, and now Im out £365...

Yes, be calm, and act mature. Age doesn't matter if you are courteous, because then people will be willing to actually help you when you aren't chewing their ear off.
But damn, that bites. Is there any reason you didn't want to go to a computer shop to get a new PC?

Because making one is cheaper and more fun :P

Oh he was making one. I thought he was buying a full desktop.

Okay ive been talking to them and they have agreed to repay me (Because I said if they do not, I will sue them)
Now just have to wait for the bank to get it (Dont you find it retarded with cheques, how they take forever to pay in, when they have the tech to do it digitally and instantly but they still go victorian style)
