Mmm, that is false description, unless noted as stock photography in the listing, and it's the sort of thing people should report -- enough and eBay might take notice.
Yeah, I kinda wish I'd thought about that. It was extremely cheap, so I wasn't too pissed about it (still gotta get repro decals for it, though). I don't think he'd mentioned that it was a stock photo, and I definitely know that he never mentioned a lack of stickers.
About the only thing that really ruffled me about it was that it took almost a month and a half to be delivered, which means he took his sweet time shipping it, as the usps has had a good track record in getting my packages to me either on the estimated day or a day or two later (ie, priority is usually said to be 5-9 days, or something, and most of the time, I get it on the 5th day after receiving notification from a seller/store that it's shipped, and failing that, the 6th or 7th day). He might have overcharged on shipping, too.
S'been a while, and I don't remember who the seller was, but I remember that they had at least a few of the typical problems I came accross during that period of time, when dealing with sellers (on another item, I had to email the seller to ask when they'd sent the item, and I never got a reply, but I ended up getting the item a few days later. When I checked the postmark date, it had been sent the same day that I'd sent out an mail).
It's become a rare occurrance, when I leave any sort of feedback, that is, when I actually use theifbay. Leaving a negative just nets you one in return, and by and large, I'm disatisfied with the quality of service that many sellers offer. Seems like a good deal of the so-called "power sellers" are the ones, who don't seem to give a **** about fostering repeat business.
