I lost Ableton - Frauded on ebay :(

[lapieuvre]

Doesn't it make you feel good to know that fucker is gonna get burned?..
No patience for thieves here.

Sure, I wish I'd be informed if they arrest him.

[H20nly]

It'll be in his local paper if he does. If he's jacked enuff people he'll get a photo op. Better the cops are dealing with him than writing bullshit tickets or harassing some 20 year old with a beer or a sack. Plus it gives Paypal all the evidence you need for a refund.

Poetic Justice.

Karma is a bitch.

how will ableton even know if you take it off or not?

No more updates, can't upgrade anymore, no more tech support. I also plan to change OS, cause XP wih 2 gigs max is too low nowadays. (Live crashes when I exceed 2 gigs ram)

These are enough reasons for me to buy Live when I get a refund...

[Hermanus]

This is a crazy situation.

I sincerly hope you're going to get refund as soon as possible.

People still buy shit from scambay? That website is infested with scammers. Theres a reason most of that shit is super cheap. Because its either, stolen, fake replicas of the original products, or non-exsistent.

Thats the gig, that play on the "stingy bastard" mentality. That guy that could have easily gone and bought the product from the original vendor, but they wanted to save.. 20 bucks??? or something negligible.

Stop being a big jew bag, is the moral of the story.. 100 bucks is not going to change your life. I also have a Brand New Ferrari id like to sell you. It has low miles, and i cant really store it anymore. Ill sell it to you for $20,000 bucks. Now thats a deal!!!

I filed a claim with PayPal against this same guy and my claim was denied. I had even paid with the PayPal credit card.

Here is what PayPal said:

We're unable to decide this claim in your favor at this time. PayPal's Buyer Complaint Policy applies to the shipment of goods but not to disputes about merchandise quality.

I guess a software license is considered "merchandise quality".

^ WHAT WHAT WHAT!!!

So a stolen car is still a good car as long as the engine works?

Wow. Now that homeboy's escapades are a little more famous maybe you should revisist that.

Then again there's always Judge Judy. Is it possible do a class action small claims case?

[lapieuvre]

I think I filed on May 3rd of 4th. Luckily I paid via a Paypal credit card and got refunded quickly

Well you are a lucky person. Paypal refused to refund me because it was more than 45 days after the transaction... but Ableton told me about the situation only 60 days after I bought the software.

Very, very frustrating.

[H20nly]

Fukin weak.

I got a extra copy of Cubase LE if you want it... I know I know, but I mean so you can make some music... I'm serious. PM if you need it.

How did you fund the PayPal transaction, if it was with a credit card you could claim it back from them instead.

[v76]

Oh man!
That guy needs a surprise visit to his place at 4am and a testicular hemorrhage.

That is how I did it. Paypal won't pay me.

Thanks, but I also have Sonar. And I will not uninstall Live, you know, I feel like I paid for it...

You have to claim it back from the credit card company!
