Bought a Win 8.1 Pro retail key and could not activate it after many tries. After spending hours on trying different approaches to reinstalling and installing, I finally gave up and contacted microsoft. Was told the product key I bought was an invalid key.
Tried contacting seller initially and he had no clue either. Told me to google the error code and fix it. After I contacted Microsoft and PM him back, I never heard from him again. After several messages it seems like he hasn't been on since he sent me that last PM on the morning of 24th September. I gave him several days but I just disputed with my cc company after not hearing back. It was only $30, I know it sounds cheap but figured it'd be legit since seller has been a member of the forum for a while and I've seen the Win 8 keys go for around this price from Microsoft directly before.

Another was an issue with an iPhone 5 transaction I had, but I'm giving the seller some more time to respond. Bought an Iphone 5 and everything worked great except for small dark spot when taking pictures with the camera. The spot is on the lower left area of the phone. At first I thought it was the LCD itself but then when I uploaded the pics to the computer, the spot actually showed up in the pictures so I know it's the camera for sure now. It also doesn't show up doing regular usage. Other than that the iPhone is great, but the camera will be used a lot by a family member and it'll be an issue for her. Like to see what the seller can do. This isn't the first iPhone I've bought on there, it's probably like somewhere in the 10th one. Recently bought 4 iPhones in the past couple weeks without any issues.
Seller has not been on since the 25th so I'm gonna wait and see. If he doesn't respond then I'll see if Apple or local repair shop can just replace the camera to see if it'll fix the issue. Not a huge problem until it comes to taking the pictures. Hard to tell from my pictures I took but when you look at it in person you will notice it very well.

Kind of hard to see in the pictures but you can see that circular spot. Pictures in link are pictures of the actual pictures and another set are from me taking pictures of the phone showing the same pictures.
