Dear Community!
I also get in touch again!
I would like to write about something positive again:
But I am full of anger and aggression again!
No, for once I don't want to talk about the current Corona situation and our oh-so-good political leadership, but about people who offer truths over the Internet, promise the blue of heaven and when you have paid neither give feedback nor send the already paid truth.
I want to tell you briefly times the story:
My 14 year old son has been dealing with the subject of cameras and the associated subject of photography for a very long time and has now made it his hobby.
At the moment he still uses my old camera and my new cell phone for taking pictures:
I show you here times a few example pictures, which he then comments to me:
About this picture:
This is a "flashed" macro shot of a primrose. (Iso 100 f4.5 1/2000 sec Fujifilm s200exr at 30,5mm)
This picture was taken with the ultra wide angle camera (13mm) from my new Iphone 12 Pro Max.
This is another close up shot with the Iphone:
After much thought and research, my son approached me with a request to be allowed to buy a camera.
He then presented me with the camera he wanted in used condition on an internet platform called Ebay Classifieds.
Of course, we also had to discuss in the family council about the high sum of 700€ that the camera should cost in used condition.
After he had presented us his "financing plan": "After all, I deliver newspapers, have put my birthday and Christmas money in the savings account and would thus have the sum together," we agreed to the purchase of the camera.
I advised my son to write to the salesman and to describe his situation (as a 14-year-old student) and perhaps to bargain down a few more euros.
However, the seller did not agree.
Nevertheless, my son decided to buy this camera.
Since I have already made several actions over several transactions on Ebay classifieds and have not yet experienced a failure, this seller also seemed trustworthy to me.
We transferred the 700€ after the seller had written: As soon as the money comes I send the goods with insured shipping.
Unfortunately, I had to realize with horror that this time my feeling about the seller was wrong.
Until today, after several messages and deadlines, we have received neither a response nor the goods.
At this point I would like to say that I find it an impertinence, if the seller knows that a 14-year-old student wants to invest his saved and earned money in his hobby and is then so disappointed.
We had no choice but to file a complaint with the police and hope that it may yet have a good end!
The world is no longer what it used to be.
And with that I say goodbye to you...
And if everything should still turn to the good I will report to you of course about it.
