SurplusComputers.com still sucks!
In nearly record time (compared to the 16 days I've been waiting for my order), Surplus Computers issued a refund for my auction. The reason for the delay? They didn't have the item in stock! Who holds an auction for an item they don't have in stock? Oh, that's right -- Surplus Computers does!
It looks like the PayPal investigation was all it took to get the ball rolling (I had just finished my last post about Surplus Computers when I got the e-mail from PayPal)
Now, I'm only out $1.83 (for the PayPal Money Back Guarantee); however, I still don't have the replacement XBOX DVD drive that I need. That sucks.
Once, I confirmed that my money had been refunded, I left the following negative feedback via Ebay:
"Didn't have product in stock! Took 16 days for refund. Deadbeats. AVOID!!!"
I feel better now, but Surplus Computers still sucks.

Ok. That's one of the funnier things I have seen in a while. Sorry about the drive, but thanks for the laugh!
