hey guys welcome to daddicated vlog episode four my name is andy and in this one i want to share
a little ebay story of how i almost got scammed by uh this lady that who bought an ipod nano
but first another book recommendation for you guys is uh atomic habits it's a book i read
i think close to the beginning of last year the book is about achieving your goals by having daily
habits that you do that basically compound to you know your big goal so instead of focusing on
you know losing 50 pounds in a month or whatever obviously that's ambitious and ridiculous but you
focus more on eating healthier making healthier choices every day or um just keeping track of
your your small routines that you do or you know stuff stuff like that uh anyway just the way that
author writes about that book was very interesting and i really enjoyed listening to it i believe
it's either five or six hour listen but it goes by fairly quickly because it's just it was very
engaging and interesting i don't know probably one of one of the top books uh i enjoyed listening to
anyway back to my story so this was years ago before i started doing ebay
on more frequent basis but i would occasionally sell one or two items here and there
and my brother-in-law who was i think he was in high school at that time maybe even middle school
he had ipod nano i think it's a fourth generation and if any of you do ebay you know how well apple
products sell online so he asked me to sell it and i sold it i think it was like 80 or 100 dollars
on ebay i sold it to some lady up north and she messages me and tells me that
it's not she doesn't have it even though my tracking number shows that it's delivered so she
started a return and i'm like well can you check the post office or she's like yeah i checked the
post office and i don't uh i haven't seen it so or they haven't seen it or whatever so i was like
okay so i refunded her money but then i decided to write her this letter or or a message and
and i said i was like listen i'm a christian person um you know i'm gonna do the right thing
and if you if you truly you know you didn't find it and you truly are not stealing from me
then you know god bless you i wish you all the best you know stuff happens but
if you're ripping me off and you're stealing from me
then god will take much more from you than what you're taking from me um and might have been
not like word for word like that but in the the gist of the message was that he will repay for me
to you um and funny enough the next day i get another message from her um
i'm also a believer and i didn't feel comfortable with your message uh so i
went down to the post office one last time and um and supposedly they had it you know so magically
all of a sudden she found the item so she paypaled me the money for for what it was worth and
you know we parted our ways but it was just to me it was an interesting
uh an interesting story that you know and again i don't know if she would lie to me or not i
want to give her the benefit of the doubt that maybe that's what happened or maybe my message
touched her and she felt bad um or scared um i don't know i just it was an interesting experience
let me know what you guys think of the story leave a comment below and if you haven't seen my
