Re: ARod 500 HR Game Base Problem

If they sent you a bill or invoice and you sent payment and they accepted that payment, in my mind that is a completed sale and transaction. They cant have sellers remorse after accepting your payment and just send you the money back.

Its like the old mantra used by every disgruntled ebay seller. Your bid is a binding contract. If you bid 10 million dollars, you better believe that they'd be looking for that big check.

If they accepted your payment after invoicing you, its your item.

Re: ARod 500 HR Game Base Problem

joelsabi - have you exchanged payment with them yet? have they cashed your check?

Often times, you can file a civil paper yourself for a small fee that lets you notify them that they are in possession of property that you own and you want it back. A simple copy of the sale info and proof that they cashed your check should make any judge happy.

Re: ARod 500 HR Game Base Problem

besides getting a lawyer, which i dont have, what can i do to get the company to honor my purchase. do i have grounds to ask who possesses the item that i bought?

My guy was great. Just a simple letter right off the bat to let them know that I'm not playing. Works like a charm!

Writing nastygrams is a lot of fun. Sometimes I'll save them for the end of the day to give me something to look forward to.

Re: ARod 500 HR Game Base Problem

I have been in similar situations and have found that only one thing truly works.....

Have your attorney send them a letter telling them that they had better come up with that item quickly.........

I had an issue with Jiffy Lube one time whereby they damaged my car, admitted the damage and offered a full repair. They the corporate bean counters argued with me that they would only pay 50%. A letter from my lawyer resulted in full payment and a rental of a huge pick up truck until my car (an Escort, haha) was fixed.

A second time, my mortgage company wouldnt pay my property taxes with MY money that was in escrow. A letter from my lawyer seemed to show them the light.

Best of luck!

The best thing about being a lawyer is that you get paid for being a jackass. That's what we call a "win-win."

Re: ARod 500 HR Game Base Problem

if i have a email verification that say the sale was complete, doesnt that mean anything? i think that this is an unfair practice for a website to say a item is unavailable after a purchase is made. if this was any other date, this would not have happen. anyone experience a similar situation or have an idea what recourse i have.

Re: ARod 500 HR Game Base Problem

the player did not keep all the bases. they found out they could sell it for more than what you paid when you preordered.

Re: ARod 500 HR Game Base Problem

After historic/milestone games, a player sometimes requests items from the game. The team usually obliges regardless of any agreements with other companies.
