To whom this may concern.
I've read the remarks of everyone on the boards regarding this issue. So, I'll make my only response concise and brief. First, I used a picture that was not mine for BB2, it was wrong, I admitted to it, that was all. Here is a picture to clear the air:
Second, CMII, you all have worked yourself into a frenzy postulating and assuming things about me personally and what might have happened. Yes, I did try and make a profit and the price was too high. I won the auction, therefore the picture was mine. Many may disagree with this issue for many reasons, this is not my concern. What concerns me is clearing the air. Now, not that this is ANY of anyone's business but my own, but yes I was forced to "renege" on the deal as it were for personal reasons. Why? Let me briefly give you an idea, as again, this is nobody's business, but it started with me wondering "??" where is the money I had for this.....a few phone calls later....credit card statements....ruining anniversary surprise.....woman mad, massive $$$ on games....sleeping on a sofa... have an idea?
I'm not particular concerned about how this response is seen, but in my mind I felt it necessary to defend my name from being besmirched any further. However, I'm not going to say I wouldn't have reacted the same way that many of you all did, but as this is the internet and people jump to conclusions and make assumptions, it is what it is.
P.S. I did make another account. Why? I couldn't log in, figured I'd been banned and I wanted to make a response. Made another, remembered the reason I couldn't log in was because I switched my e-mail address right before this shit-storm started and a new password is sent to the new address, but I didn't realize this until today when the ip was banned. I was too tired last night to make an intelligible response and I hadn't slept much as it were.
I didn't want to air any of this; I'm not looking for sympathy, understanding, or anything else. I just want this to be what it is, an explanation. So please stop sending me negative comments, you don't know anything except what was assumed.
Otherwise, it was nice getting to know some of you during my brief time here. With that, I tip my hat and bid you all good day.
