So I was so excited about getting this new AiRRUS rod from bounty and then Rodney hooked me up with some finances to get a reel (got a Quantum Burst by the way, works great so far) thanks Rodney. Anyway, I decided to start selling stuff on ebay to make a little extra money to pay bills and maybe enough to buy a new rod. Well I ended up finding a rod I like for a good price from
www.johnnyspond.com it was $56 total so I ordered it. I received it a few days later and I was excited only to open the container to find the rod broken at the tip about 2 inches down. I immediately shipped it back on my own dime. Well it's been over a month and I have yet to get my money back or my rod. So do no to business with
www.johnnyspond.com they are horrible at customer service. Now back to selling stuff on ebay, well I sold a few things in a package deal for $210 so finally making a few bucks while I'm unemployed. I suppose you can guess what happened, I sent the package and forgot to get a tracking number so the recipient filed a dispute with PayPal saying he did not get the package. I contacted USPS and opened a claim because I wanted to to it get resolved correctly and honestly. Well the recipient won't contact me now and won his dispute with PayPal so not only did I lose $210 I lost my merchandise that I sold, which I think was received and he committed fraud to recoup the money he paid for it. (Ebay user name is 315elsa just a word to the wise do not buy anything from this person) I was hoping I would receive the AiRRUS rod from bounty to lift my spirits but I still have yet to see that. It was probably delivered and stolen from my doorstep. I really don't know what I did to deserve this, I mean I go to church every Sunday, I treat my wife well, I try to do what is right at all times but yet if I didn't have bad luck I wouldn't have any. Then to top it off I couldn't even catch a fish to place in the latest LG South tournament. Man I am having a great 2009. I post this to not so ya'll will feel sorry for me but to show that bad things happen to good people. I know things will eventually get better but man this sucks. Good thing I'm an optimistic person otherwise I might just go into a deep depression and forget about all the good things I have in life. I'm just glad I have an outlet like this to express myself and commune with friends. Family, friends and fishing will always pull me through. So whatever life throws at you no matter how bad remember there are always better things on the horizon and there is always another fish to catch. Thanks for letting me vent and if it looks good. . . Fish It!
