Only me - this could only happen to me. I got tired of listening to Giavanna and Christopher fighting over his IPad so I came up with I thought was a grand solution. I decided that I would order Giavanna a used Ipad from ebay as she is only 8 and certainly does not need a brand new one. This would eliminate the bickering and thus add more harmony to my life.
I have only ordered one thing on ebay prior to this and all went with my purchase.
I searched for a gently used Ipad and found one instantly. I look at the seller's ratings and they were all positive. The person had been a member for years and it looked like the perfect situation. I paid with PayPal and told Giavanna. She spent three weeks running to the front door whenever we arrived home
The package never came and as she prepared for her trip to California, she was upset that I "lied" to her about getting an Ipad. UGH- I had 9 conversations with the seller, all fake as he never sent the package. I reported him to Ebay and moved on- quickly, as I wanted Giavanna to have her Ipad for her trip to California. At this point, I was also feeling bad as she had waited long and I got her excited for absolutely nothing.
In my absolute haste, I quickly went back on ebay- a very stupid move on my part. I searched frantically as I just wanted to get this transaction over with. I was feeling stressed about my children leaving for California- so clearly this was nervous energy.
I found another gently used ipad and started bidding on it. There were seventeen other bidders and I won the item. I paid $360.00 for my new used Ipad and my seller- Simon said " your Ipad is in the mail".
