Aaaaah! Ebay!

So two weeks ago I bought FM off of Ebay, and it said that it would come in 2-3 weeks. So it came today, and it is F*CKING CM5! Now there's no way I can definitely get my money back or I can get FM without having to buy it again. Hopefully the seller is going to be good about it, I already emailed him telling him about the mistake. I was so excited when I saw the package for me in the mail, and then I open it up and it's CM! I didn't open the seal on the game box or anything, so hopefully I can send it back to them and get the right game. SO ANGRY!

Sorry to hear that. I had to buy the game twice myself, first they sold me this "lite" version (well, it was pirated, without an editor ,images, tournament trees etc.). I took it back and they sayed: "It's not our fault, we can't buy it back and can't swap it either, cause we don't have any copies left." I told them to **** off and left the game there. I ended up buying a new copy online.

Anyway, I hope it goes well for you.

sorry to hear that man... I know that disappointing feeling! Some of these douchebags are so unreliable.

Lucky for me I got it from my friend's "secret source" haha :p it was nice and smooth.

You can always use a working around since you have tried to legally buy it so you're not completly unlegal than.

Who's the seller?

If the seller is uncooperative, leave him a nasty negative feedback. But before that, just keep contacting the person... They HATE negative feedback and most of the time they'd rather give your money back.

I believe the name is "teletour".

The game is sitting on the computer desk in front of me taunting me and laughing. I'm going crazy. I was so excited when the package came! :kader:

Try to sell the game off. As for the seller, just leave negative feedback. I'm sure you didn't buy from an unrated seller, did you?

No, he had a 98% or so. He had a lot of sales too, so he wasn't new to Ebay.

I paid with PayPal.

If you paid with Paypal as you say then you should be able to get reimbursed. My uncle had the same thing happen with a monitor he bought there. Contacted paypal directly I think. Might be worth looking into anyway.

I've emailed the guy and he said that he was going to send me the right game if I paid for the shipping, plus I get to keep CM5, so I'm happy now. I'm sure that I can sell CM5 for more than the shipping of FM costs.

It's a very good deal if you look at CM5 still costing €50,- / $50,- in the stores. But if I look at how much I would end up playing CM5 when in your situation... I'd still be heavily annoyed. Irritated even. :(

I'm just happy that I'm going to get FM. I'm not even going to open the case on CM5, from what I've heard it is horrendous. It's getting sold, maybe on Ebay. :)
