Hey Guys. I made the mistake of letting international bidders buy my hard drive on ebay. [http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320100146283&sspagename=ADME:B:AAQ:US:1](http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320100146283&sspagename=ADME:B:AAQ:US:1) Google language tools won’t translate most of what he’s saying. From what I can gather, he is bitching that the shipping costs too much, and I used too big a box. I used a big western digital hard drive box because thats what hard drives need to be shipped in. Now I think he’s saying that the hard drive is damaged. I think he didn’t read the auction, as the tool who owned the drive before me broke the native power connector off it. Recibi el HD pero esta dañado, y la caja 10 veces mas grande de lo necesario costò USA 22 el trasporte…El disco fuè golpeado y roto ANTES de empacar…como arreglamo??? Saludos Gabriele ---

I received the Hard Drive on my patio, it should have cost 10 bucks. Instead you you used some unnecessarily huge fucking box from America (Fuck yeah!) that cost 22 bucks to ship… The disco funk on the Golpeado, they demand your ambassador… are you a pirate?!? Sincerely, Gabriele Disclaimer: I don’t know any italian, or foreign lanugages for that matter. But guessing just makes it more fun! Honestly if the problem was in the auction, then it would be AS-IS at this point. Handle it how you see fit, and sell to people you can understand. ---

Its a common phrase with selling electronics. Guaranteed against DOA means that it will work when you get it, but I’m not going to warranty it for anybody. In other words you can’t send it back because you changed your mind on it.
