I think I just did a bad thing...

I bid on an auction for a pachislo machine called Automatic today, and I won the auction. However, stupid me didn't do their homework and look at the feedback for the seller, who goes by the name of "shopda". I've never seen so many negatives before, and now I'm worried. I won the machine for only $34 bucks (plus shipping), so that part of it seems good. However, I am a little shaky as to whether or not he even has the machine in his possession, and furthermore, whether I will ever see it. Fortunately I have not paid him yet, so I am going to wait until he contacts me before I do anything. If anyone could shed some light about this guy it would be appreciated. Thanks

There is a thread on this seller somewhere. Basically at first he seemed okay but then the negs started pouring in. At $34, he's not making anything since he's drop shipping from Syscom (we believe), and I doubt he's going to deliever something to you at a loss.

I can't tell you want to do at this point however. Good luck though!

Well one ray of hope is that while his feedback sucks, other folks HAVE been leaving positive feedback reporting they got their machines, most around a week later.

See, there's some hope!

make sure you pay via PayPal if you even pay. At least that way you are covered for a refund.

and use a credit card, that way you are double protected...

Please let us know what happens. I too was bidding on one of their machines but caught the feedback just in time to opt out of the bid. Lets hope for the best and if all goes well, We will all have a vendor that we may be able to get great bargains from.

...seems like he has relisted the auction. Of course it is possible that he has more than 1 Automatic machine, but he even used the same picture. I will call the office tomorrow.
