- Seller sadly does not accept PayPal and thus, I cannot pay him. Third purchase for the game cancelled. I really don't have luck with this game.

+ Got a bunch of new songs on my iPod.
+ Found an old song I remember my cousin really liked many years ago but we never knew the name or artist and we lost the CD. I'm surprised I recognised it somehow.

- I am having HUGE issues with this eBay seller. Why doesn't he/she just realize I cannot pay with different method than bank transfer and cancel purchase peacfully like other people do when someone cannot pay for reasonable reason? Instead, he/she wants to report me to eBay :boon:

Germany and the majority uses Banktransfer instead because it has no fees.

+/- Need to do still many things.

I guess emshomar gave you answer.
Right now, I pray that he/she wont give me negative feedback. I gave him/her positive feedback and said it was misunderstanding.
Well, I am done with German eBay. 3 unsuccessful purchases in a row (but other sellers were nice and cancelled it though). It would just ruin my reputation.
This is the main reason I wish 3DS was region free. It would be much easier for me to purchase from US or Japan. Now I need to find another cheap European country with PAL 3DS games to purchase from. Any suggestions?

Sellers can only select positive feedback (which is awful tbh, it doesn't happen often but I do get buyers who don't pay at all) so no-one can get to the point of getting minus feedback (-1 for example) anymore though they can abuse that and easily type in something negative.

I hadn't imported anything from Germany for a long time and last time I checked it was a shop account that accepted paypal; I guess it's down to just individuals on how they want to be paid. That's still kinda shitty that this seller is being stubborn, I'd get into contact with ebay if they start getting abusive. :S

Well, thats a good thing for me then because I wont have ruined reputation. I know some Americans only wanted to ship to me because of trusted feedback. Having some negative would just ruin my image. But I do agree that the option not being able to rate people negative as a seller is bad for some. I am just happy for my case, because I am clearly not a bad person or scammer. I even gave person a positive feedback and really apologised for not being able to pay because only way I can do it is PayPal.

It's not bad game, but comparing it to other Ratchet and Clank games, it is worst one. Then again, it is made by High Impact Games - the ones that invented Dark Daxter.

The game is years old, and it's not like the developers would make any money off of it anyway at this point. I'd pirate that game myself if I wanted to play it.

-Eh, not going to get much assignment work done today. Too tired, and mother's boyfriend is over.

And that is why it is cheap, so pirating it would not make too much sense. I would rather pirate brand new game as a test so I don't screw up and waste money if game is bad.

But why pay a penny when you can pay nothing at all, if there is no extra benefit for you? Plus, buying a game like that usually means getting it shipped in. Downloading an ISO is quicker.
