Advantages: erm...., it could be good if it was the real deal
Disadvantages: stupid people like me can be fleeced
I am now going to admit something that I have never publically admitted before, it is hard for me to talk about it so please, I know that I will be the victim of derogatory comments, and I realise that I do deserve them, but please, be gentle on me, I am fragile after my EBay Esperience. Right....so here goes..... I bought all 7 of the Police Academy films off E Bay. There. I've said it. I feel like an enormous weight has been lifted off my shoulders already. Now that I've got my confession out of the way I shall proceed with the harrowing tale of my ebay ordeal....well ok, so it wasn't THAT dramatic, well, ok, it wasn't dramatic at all.....but it was still annoying.... Basically I bid for these Police Academy films, which I assumed to be THE ORIGINALS....which they weren't....and then someone outbid me....but then aparantly I had bid more....I can't remember this but I must have done it so it was my fault...and i didn't know at that time that I was just getting videos with them recorded on, I thought I was getting the real deal....so anyway I won the bid and got an e-mail off the guy who was selling them and he told me that I had to give him another £3 postage and packing, which seemed like a fair deal.... or so I thought. I waited a week. Then I sent an e-mail asking where the hell my videos were. The nest week I recieved an e-mail apologising for the delay. The next week I sent another mail asking where the hell my videos were. The nest day I recieved a parcel....with ONE video in it....but it had the first four Police Academy videos on....now don't get me wrong I do love this video, BUT I do not expect to pay as much as I did for a pirate copy NOR so much for the postage. Anyway I sent another mail asking where the other video was, and it took another 3 weeks for it to get to me.... now I do love Police Academy (see my reviews of them by the way, then you'll see the severeness of my obession...be afraid...be
VERY afraid) BUT i begrudge paying so much for 2 measly videos....I didn't pay an extoritionate amount, but I still can't help but feel fleeced....so before you buy on ebay make sure that you check out all the facts, learn from my stupid example and beware!
