"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I sold an item for less then half of what they were selling for on ebay (so the buyer could fix any malfunction and still be a head, if the item broke or stopped working).

Low and behold, one week later the item malfunctions and the buyer is calling me. Keep in mind, i owned this piece of equipment since 2000 and never had any problem.

What is the ethical thing to do? I tried pricing it fairly, realizing that things do break.

Thanks-
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

dont refund his money, explain to him you priced it low for a reason and it was fully functional when he received it, you have no control over when things break and you offered no warranty.

Now, unless you knew it was going to break soon, then thats unethical, but if you didnt and you just wanted to give him a lower price just in case something goes wrong so he can fix it like you said, then dont refund his money...Thats only fair to the both of you.

No, i had no idea it was going to break (i used it a lot and he tested it before he bought it). The item i sold him is selling for 300-400 on ebay. I sold it for $150.00. The most expensive item to replace on this piece of equipment is the motor--$80.

I explained to him, and he will not take no for an answer. I am now wishing that i just threw the thing away, instead of selling it.

What was the method of payment? Hopefully not paypal. Ebay/paypal almost always sides with the buyer in disputes like these, no matter what. If the buyer complains enough, they'll just take the money right out of your paypal account.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Beyond your peripheral vision
You do NOT ever have to refund someone for an item that (especially after a MONTH)

BREAKS
GETS LOST
DISAPPEARS
IS ABDUCTED BY ALIENS
GETS DIRTY

ect...


You see what I am saying??

As long as you made no warranties, you have no obligation to refund any money.

He just sent me an e-mail, stating that he wants me to buy it back or pay for the repair. I am definitely going to refuse his demands and stick to my position. The calls and e-mails are starting to agitate me. This just might be my last time selling something used, as the aggravation isn't worth the small profit.

Thanks for the feedback!!!!!!
