Hi.

Hi people.

Because of the HIGH demand, I am going to tell you more about our computers.

It all started about 2 months ago when my husbands computer stopped turning on. We were very worried about the poor thing, so we took it into simplymac to have it looked at and to see if we could make it survive. We were told it was the hard drive and that we would have to get it replaced. So, we paid the $45 to get a diagnostic which goes towards fixing the hard drive. Turns out, it was the motherboard that crashed. And, since we didnt want to fix that, we lost the $45.

Fine.We can live with that.

What we then decided to do was buy a mini net book off ebay for $300, as well as a macbook that was under warranty until 2012 {unlike mine or zach boy's} for $500. We were then planning on on selling my mac and just use these two new laptops.





As you know...... a few weeks go by, and we hadnt seen or heard any news on our laptops.

So, of course, I investigate.

I tracked the netbook through fedex. It was said to have been delivered. It, obviously, had not been delivered.

So, I called fedex 5000 times and talked to 5000 different people for them to finally tell me that they would reimburse the seller and he could then reimburse me.

Fine.

So I contact the seller and tell him the ordeal, make sure he files a claim with fedex, and then wait for fedex to start the reimbursing.
I get the feeling my seller is not as persistent with fedex as I am.
So I still call fedex everyday and email my seller to make sure this is happening.

I know, so annoying, I would hate me. but people, it has to be done.

So fine, we are kind of getting somewhere with one computer.
Other computer was sent by an idiot through USPS with NO insurance.
And USPS doesnt care what I say to them, they say we dont care about your sob story it is out of our hands.
Oh and my idiot seller will not email me back, no matter how many emails I send him.
So, through paypal we must go.
Only problem is it takes 30 days to get anywhere with that.
So we will wait, but we WILL get our money back.

And I hate ebay now.

For a little while.

So, you may think our story is over. and i wish it was people.

A few days ago I got a text from my husband saying that my computer was broken.
I took it in today to the lovely simplymac where they probably now hate me because I was really onery, and I think the guy was scared of me, but there i was having dejavu because he was telling me it was my hard drive and would be $45 dollars to get it fixed,
him: "but dont worry because that goes towards..."
me: "the new hard drive, i know, i did this last month. and it wasnt the hard drive."
I dont know why I felt I needed to take it out on Roger that my baby was broken, but I did. He told me it would cost $75 to get it backed up, but that they didnt guarantee getting anything off of it.

I almost started crying, I really did. My life is on there.

Anyways, long story that is not short {im sorry people, my husband says im a bad story teller because I tell too many details, i'll work on it}, We are going to see if we can find a way to back it up ourselves and then give in and give it to our friends {or maybe not friends} at simply mac and pay the $45 and pray that its worth it.

And if it does start again, Im not selling it. I realized how attached I really am to my little, beat up, ill macbook. We've been through a lot together...
