To tie this all back to the original post...
Pertains to a seller of an Xforce amp and the "questionable history" of the item.
Then upon inspection of said item you can easily see sputter and cold-blobbed solder on the item and as you refer back to the description - you can't VERIFY the item is even going to be working as claimed (see the wash/watermarks on the face of the unit?)
So then I posted what I thought was humorous - welding meme for Ebay for shipping - there were several recent threads about shipping and arrivals not as intended - requiring insurance.
Then a post about someone wanting an item shipped to an unverifiable address that the contact purchaser was changing - the label using the original address of the purchaser was already printed and the shipper claimed they can't ship to an unknown and unverifiable address. (This is minor and can be rectified if ever the postal or UPS or whatever transit was used, the new address could be corrected thru their channels - the seller simply has to send to an address the user is supposed to be from - this protects them both - if the purchaser has to relocate or has to move due to eminent danger - that shipper used, can offset the new address as the newer location and reroute to the new address mostly at no or little cost to the purchaser due to hardship.)
So they were called a political term - we won't go into here - and also refer to how the overall emphasis on selling these days is thru deceptive means not just from mistrust of the seller, but mistrust of the system used to even make the transaction occur - let alone work to satisfy the parties involved.
The "thread " Unraveled from that point on...
So if there is any blame - it may be my fault for even trying to humor any or all of you.
At the link that started this thread - go and see this for yourself...
And the watermarks...on the case - Fire extinguisher used?
