DOA
Dead On Arrival; that was my so called birthday present. That podcasting unit from e-bay, an iRiver MP3 player, which I had mentioned in previous posts below, was deader than a door nail when it arrived by post yesterday.
Now it's a waiting game to see if the e-bay seller will honour a 72 hour return policy. Unfortunately the unit cost $54 US (a deal) but shipping was $24 US!!! The later is lost. Now it's another $20-30 CND down and another $24 US back... if he sends a new unit. That's bad enough, but at the boarder they again hit you for $8.50 GST; the end of the day $17 CND: I'm just too mad to do the math.
