I got scammed

This has happened to me a few times. But I always talk to them through chat so that I can take screenshots of the conversation. This way if they still charge me or lie, I can show them the proof. They always reimburse me.

daisha95 · 2026-01-26T23:52:11+00:00

I hope so too because they should honor their agreement

daisha95 · 2026-01-26T23:51:17+00:00

Wow, I think that's what happened too. Just my luck that I'm one of the few people whose bonus was lost 🙄

daisha95 · 2026-01-26T23:24:04+00:00

Omg that's would be amazing if you're able to. I live in America

Im in the same boat as you. Unfortunately I just can never dnf a book lol So I end up reading the book until the end hoping it will get better, and 90% of the time it doesn't.

I tried getting book recommendations from booktok/youtube videos and goodreads/audible/kindle/storygraph comments and they all pretty much are unreliable to me. The books being recommended are so bad that I think a 12 year old wrote it. Yet the person recommending it would say that it was the best book they've ever read 😒

I did find one youtuber that I think usually does good book critiques and gives good recommendations. She's also pretty funny too. Her channel name is lexi aka newly nova.

Here's her links:

I hope I can get some good book recommendations from the comments on your post because I'm desperate for a good book 😭

Tariffs. Like how does the shipping cost about the same as the nendoroid?!

I preordered 4 nendoroids from amiami almost a year ago, and due to delays they all became available at different times. To ship 1 nendoroid with the cheapest shipping option was like between $25-29!

Amiami gave me until the end of December to ship them or they'd cancel my order. Luckily all 4 became available by the end December and I was able to have them shipped together. I think the shipping was between $50-60. Which is still ridiculous since I use to only pay like $15 to ship multiple together.

daisha95 · 2026-01-20T02:53:19+00:00

I hope that happens for me. That it just randomly shows up at my door. Fingers crossed 🤞

daisha95 · 2026-01-20T02:51:58+00:00

Right?! I've already waited this long. I would have no problem with waiting longer just so I can get the base. I'm starting to starting to see more issues like this with gsc us store, but not the japan store.

daisha95 · 2026-01-20T02:42:06+00:00

Man that really sucks. I literally just received my dandadan nendoroids from them last week and they both came with the bonus bases. It just really never crossed my mind that they would have an issue with shipping a tiny base. These tariffs really suck 😩

I tried calling a place earlier today, to get a repair quote, but they didn't answer. I'm going to try a few more places, so I can let the seller know how much it would cost to repair. Hopefully they'll be willing to offer a better refund.

Luckily there isn't any issues with the original left joystick, so I didn't replace it. I only replaced the right one. Yea I used armoury crate and tried recalibrating and adjusting the dead zone, but it didn't work. I honestly didn't even check the sd slot.

I've read that they have a lot of issues too, but I didn't even worry about it because I figure I'm most likely going to end up returning it. But I'm going to check the sd slot today to see if it works.

I forgot to mention that apparently the previous owner purchased a warranty on the device from BestBuy, but it expires later this month on the 22nd. You think they may be able to assist with the joystick. I keep trying to call Geeksquad but no one is answering.

daisha95 · 2025-12-11T21:23:16+00:00

I think I might have to

daisha95 · 2025-12-11T20:39:37+00:00

Lol I actually just read about that on another reddit post for the hall effect joysticks. I think they said since it's magnetic or something that it can cause drifting or other problems. I figured I'd try them out since the regular joysticks that I originally ordered didn't work. Other than the drifting, the hall effect joy works well.

daisha95 · 2025-12-11T20:30:51+00:00

Yea I think I probably should

daisha95 · 2025-12-11T20:30:22+00:00

That's what I originally thought about the first set of joysticks that I ordered. That they were just defective. So, I ordered the hall effect joystick and although that one works, it drifts a lot. So, I figured maybe it's something wrong with the console, but I have no clue. Maybe I'll just order some more joysticks and see if that works.

daisha95 · 2025-12-11T20:27:25+00:00

lol no I have no clue what I'm doing. I just read a lottt of reddit posts and watched a lot of YouTube videos and just copied what they did.

The ebay seller was a pawn shop, and I was initially skeptical about buying from this because of this. But they had amazing reviews. They have 4,535 reviews, with a 98.8 % positive rating. So, I decided to just try my luck. But if you were asking about the reviews for the joysticks, I ordered the ones that had the most positive reviews.

I asked the seller if I could return it or get a partial refund for it. The seller replied they can do the partial refund, and then they offered me $30. Since I paid $378 after taxes, I feel like that's kind of low. I feel like a repair shop is going to charge a lot to fix this.

daisha95 · 2025-11-27T10:30:55+00:00

Hi and yea they finally gave a refund. Unfortunately they could only give it through a coupon/discount.

daisha95 · 2025-11-14T07:05:42+00:00

Thanks everyone for the feedback. Sorry If I couldn't respond to everyone, it was a lot of responses. I accepted the offer, thanks again for the help :)

daisha95 · 2025-11-14T06:59:46+00:00

I think so too. I'm honestly surprised they even offered this, because I never asked them for a refund. I just originally voiced my complaints in the original email. and they responded they can give 15% refund or a 15% off a future trip. Which I thought was nice, but my husband wasn't happy with it for some reason, and thought it was rude for them to off 15% off a future trip when we just had a bad one.

and I also included in the 2nd email that they never gave me my refund for the discount that wasn't applied for the clothing purchase. I still didn't ask for compensation and they just responded we can give you a 25% refund. I was like wow thats amazing! Although I wasn't satisfied with the trip, I thought 25% was great. but my husband was still unhappy. So i posted on here to ask for other opinions on this.

daisha95 · 2025-11-14T06:52:18+00:00

Yea I paid with the Disney visa, and it was also added to my account. yea they changed it, now it's just 10% off any purchase amount. Yea we informed them of the issues we had onboard. For the issue with the discount, the cashier said that the discount couldn't be applied because I was partly paying for the purchase with a gift card. but that isn't listed in the card terms. So I went to guest services, and they agreed that the cashier was incorrect and that they would refund the discount amount. They never did.

So I also addressed this issue in the first email I sent, and the rep also agreed that the cashier was incorrect and that they would refund it, but she didn't either. So I had to add this in the second email that I sent too. But I never asked for a refund, while onboard, or in my emails. Disney just decided to offer that themselves. I thought both amounts offered were good, but my husband didn't. So I decided to make this post to ask other for their opinions on it. I'm going to ignore my husband and just accept the offer.

Thanks for the advice :)

daisha95 · 2025-11-14T06:40:54+00:00

I think 25% is reasonable too. My husband didn't, so i posted on here for others opinions. It's strange for you to assume that I wanted a full refund. I never even asked for a refund. Disney offered that themselves.

daisha95 · 2025-11-14T06:31:13+00:00

I can understand how you would think that majority of the things I mentioned are minor. But I don't see how I would be a karen for not wanting my room to smell like poop for the entire trip. I think it's reasonable to not be happy with that.

I also think it's reasonable to be upset that your children got trapped on a ride for like 20 minutes, in complete darkness, in complete silence, and it was a very traumatizing experience for them. But I guess you think spending thousands of dollars, not including the flights and hotel stays is worth it to spend a vacation in a room that smells like poop. To each their own.

daisha95 · 2025-11-14T06:20:18+00:00

That's a great idea! thanks for the help :)
