below is a series of correspondences. unfortunately, i've lost all her replies but one. i can tell you they have been polite and feathery, and it is precisely this innocence that fuels my rage, for she maintains this "dignity" even in the face of her, what i find blatantly obvious, guilt; the crime of which would be scamming me $65.50 for an authentic LaFeyette 60's record player which i won on ebay nearly 4 months ago. ive been waiting ever since...

dear cindy,
its been a very long time now and i cant quite understand why the record player hasnt arrived yet. if i knew it wouldve taken this long i wouldve bought one from another source. basically, ship it now or give me my money back. i paid $65 and deserve what i paid for. i didnt pay to consistently wait. i have many records that im very anxious to play. my address has changed, so please ship it here:

sorry if this sounds rude and abbrasive, thats generally unlike me, im just getting impatient.
------------
allow me to interject; her reply here was a very solemn and heart-wrenching story about the horrible miscarriage she went through and the subsequent tragic depression it created. dont render me heartless just yet, dear reader, for i seem to have lost the one very caring message i did send her immediately after, in which i naively assumed her every word truthful. i consoled her for the loss of her child, and shared my experience with miscarriage (my mother had one when i was young) and i told her how i think of the brother i couldve had from time to time with a strange sort of sorrow. she replied a very gracious thank you and appreciativeness of my compassion. this was good and all, but in the wake of the non-arriving record player i couldn't help but find such a move as the perfect tactic of a scam-artist; use the ultimate pity story to prolong the realization of the scam. so dont say im heartless, dear reader, for i was compassionate once and it took a good 2 months of waiting before i really got angry.

good for you, you scammed me. thats what im left to assume, as well as that your whole story for the delay in the record player's shipment was false. i want my money back. if you scammed me, youre obviously not planning on giving me my money back, but i will see what possible recourse i have. if this is not a scam, then you are just incompetent and i dont want the record player anymore, i just want my money back immediately. do know how long ive been waiting for this record player? its been months now... thats outrageous. i didnt pay $65 to deal with this bullshit, i just want my fucking record player NOW. is that so hard to understand? thanks for your cooperation.

*up till this point her replies have been lost in the e-trash, but here's one i could salvage*

Nicky, I was very nice to you and now you say this stuff. I said I was giving your record player and the $ back. I understand you may be mad but to say such horible thngs to someone to hurt them like them. Ok again are you ok with both record player and $ back?
-------------------------

of course im ok with getting the record player and getting my money back. why in the hell would i NOT be OK with that? thats obviously what im trying to get you do to, which you prolong with message after message about how youre "going" to do it. how about this: fucking do it. the next message i get from you had better say: "go check your account nicky, the money is there, and the record player will arrive on so and so date." so if i hear some more "is this ok" bullshit, or some prolongation of action via your words one more time, im going to completely stop any acts of compromise or understanding, because how the fuck can you not be yanking my chain? i still havent seen the medical records of your operation either...
do you hold the capacity to get anything done? are you mentally retarded? GIVE ME MY MONEY AND MY RECORD PLAYER, DONT TALK ABOUT HOW YOURE GOING TO GIVE THEM TO ME. ITS TAKEN YOU MONTHS TO HANDLE SOME SHIT THAT I COULD DO IN MINUTES. i swear to god...

i dont care how nice you are. this is the internet. what i care about is getting what i paid for. you are but the mediator to facilitate this transaction, you faceless piece of shit. i just checked when i first sent you the money; oct 13th, 2007. you mean to tell me, that its been 4 fucking months, and you have the FUCKING nerve to ask "are you ok with both record player and $ back?" either you have autism, or are lifeless enough to arise satisfaction out of conning me for this long. why dont you just spend the money on coke and never respond to me again? well im glad my commonsense has snapped in enough to tell me you and your fetus are full of shit. no need to reply, but if my record player or money ever shows up, then fuck you still, cunt.
sincerely,
nicky

now, this is where our correspondences have thus ended. even though i wrote this last one as a conclusion (no need to reply, i said), i have a feeling she still will, as anyone probably would. maybe you're unsure who to side with; this poor woman, who claims the 4 month delay was due to a miscarriage which made shipping the package slip her and her husband's mind, and who holds to "how nice she was" to me despite my anger. or, should you side with this vulgar boy who drops some of the most non PC terms in the most non socially conscious ways?
well, i'd love to side with her warm, nice, fuzzy lil' innocence and console her over the loss of her baby, but that just doesn't match up with 4 months of delay. she claims she shipped it twice, though i always make sure to get to UPS when i miss a package. ive gone multiple times, each time getting my hopes up that whatever i had waiting for me would be the record player, but no, it was something trivial like a spinning plate to go inside my microwave. so, if i seem angry, perhaps understand i paid her $65.50 for a very nice record player that i do not believe exists. so yes, im angry, but what better place to funnel anger than down the vacuous annals of the internet?
reflecting now on her lack of grammatical skills, i think she may have autism, which would also render her incompetency to ship things and to ask things that obviously dont need to be confirmed (ie:refunding my money), very legitimate within the framework of her disorder.
the internet is nothing but a source for speculation. no truth can be backed behind anonymous screens.
