So I made a purchase the other day on the bay. The item came today and I tried to play it (FIFA 07). The thing did not work. So I took it out of the machine and notice the disk looks a little off. I flip it and there is no Playstation hologram in the center. F i says to meself, I been robbed. The seller I purchased from looked reputable and is not in the game trade. It was the only item listed. So do I need to report it to Sony and ebay and paypal? It already feels like a lot of work for a couple dollar game. Anybody else been in a pinch like this. I searched ebay for answers and they suck. It seems they hide cases like this.

Why in the world do they bother sending anything? Isn't that rubbing it in?

I'd post a negative feed back and move on with your life.

And take Big Stees' advice.

Contact the seller and let them know you'll be posting bad feedback AND notifying the authorities if you don't get a response within 48 hours.

I've had a couple of bad items sent to me, but when I approached it this way, it all worked out well in the end.
