Description of Bad Deal:

Guys don't deal with this person!!!

Received the unit and on the 1st day I encountered and issue while testing, I tested the unit in my own machine,
ended up bluescreening and started boot looping. Contacted the seller to let them know that their gpu I bought was giving me issues.
I later found out the Gpu was shorting my Motherboard.
Tested the component on an another pc thinking it could be drivers and it held for about and hour before bluescreening again.
I realized it only worked on this other pc for that time because the board didn't have anti surge protection

When I contacted the gent for the 2nd time he told me at 1st he will make a plan to replace the unit or fix it.
The next day I contacted the gent on whatsapp and straight up he said he was not willing to replace the unit nor would refund me,
Told him I was even willing to ship the unit back at my expense. His reply was there was no guarantee on this unit.
But that only applies if you received a working unit. Which in my case I received a faulty graphics card.
Nothing was specified that this was a faulty unit/

I will not trust @Aurora18 with future deals as he is unwilling to assist you if he sells you a dud.
Please don't make the same mistake I did.

Please note that my 1st rating of the gent is incorrect.

I have all the details for the gent as I need to pay him for the unit originally.

Kind regards
Ryan @ GingerTronics (Pty) Ldt
 
Ah well. Sorry for your loss @Burnout2580. I'm banning him.
Good day Toxxyc

So he wasn't willing to speak publicly from what I see.
Told him he has to reply and he he ended up contacting me on WhatsApp instead
He promised I'll have my money in my account by Mid December.
He had quite the cocky attitude like I'm the one who is stuffing him around.
Won't be holding my breath though. Will Let you know further updates.

Thank you for your kind words and assistance. These things happen.
All my experience on Carbonite have been absolutely brilliant except for the this one.
One bad experience doesn't define all the good Carbonite has done for me.

Kind regards

Good day.

Gent paid me today, already see the money reflected.

Thank you for all the support. All is resolved. As I promised he I will removed The bed deal and ratings

Ryan
 
Can I rate anyone for the support?
Would love to also give something back. If not much

Kind regards.
Ryan.

PS I think his account has already been removed. I know this is asking alot but since it's been sorted I feel terrible now. Will he be able to create another account or u block it. ๐Ÿคฃ
 
He doesn't want to speak publicly - eh. I don't want to deal with him anymore on here. He can contact Support if he wants to argue his case. Glad you got your money back mate. No need to rate anything, we don't work for glory here. :p
