who knew?
I attempted to buy a bike of Ebay, 2 weeks (coming from SF - 2 day delivery normally). Seller had every excuse in the book "couldn't find the right size box", "bike store slow", "family emergency." So I gave him blunt advice about his excuses (suggesting the real issue was honesty), and told him to not bother sending the bike. I disputed the purchase....
3 days after telling him he's dishonest, the box arrives - I send it back. Figure, why would I buy something used based upon the truthfulness of the seller - they aren't truthful, it could be the "best" deal in the world and I won't bite...
so then I get the kicker today (and I'm really chuckling because he doesn't know my job is working with the ADA laws) - he tells me the real reason he didn't send the bike when promised (4 different days) was because he has a ADA recognized disability.... I responded (God help me, I was nice the first email) that I didn't realize that dishonesty was a disease suffered by the teller.
nevermind that he told me before that he's selling the bike because he's a bike racer who got a bike from his sponsor....
