Re: Bauhn ATVS58 Mainboard issue

Have him send a pic. of both boards side by side so he isn't just sending a pic of your board back.

Re: Bauhn ATVS58 Mainboard issue

I dont have the tv anymore so I cant even test it. a bit frustrating.

I have asked him for a photo of his board so I can see if he even ordered the right part.

Not much more I can do I guess

All you can do is to put it down to experience. Have the board returned and check it for damage before refunding any monies.

Re: Bauhn ATVS58 Mainboard issue

I guess Im mainly concerned about him misdiagnosing his issue and when the new board didnt fix the problem, wanting a refund when its not my issue.

He says that when he puts my board in he has no power.

That could mean anything I know, but how do I reconcile that?

Re: Bauhn ATVS58 Mainboard issue

i used to mark the boards when i was selling them . if anyone said they wanted to return i would say send it back so i can check the security marks then issue a refund . nothing ever came back .

I saw when they had all the delivery companies and the usps on hidden camera, just kicking and slamming packages, to take out their frustrations or just because they are assholes? who knows BUT after that I always get them insured. NEVER get the usps insurance it's a joke.

Could be any number of problems, he may have a different issue than mainboard, might have also been damaged in shipping, best is to spring for a couple bux and get the insurance, it covers the whole cost, I seldom sell but I do get insurance and spring for the signed signature for delivery.

You are responsible for return costs too.

Re: Bauhn ATVS58 Mainboard issue

If I decide to give him a refund for the mainboard, whats the normal procedure?

He pays to send it back to me and I reimburse him the original purchase price + original amount paid for postage?

Or am I responsible for paying to have the board sent back to me as well?

Re: Bauhn ATVS58 Mainboard issue

I don't sell anymore but when I did I also used tamper proof stickers on parts sent out and it did ensure that returns were my originals.

No anti static bag just bubble wrap?
I put security stickers on the boards I sell, they are viable in the listing and so hopefully deter those hoping to commit fraud.

You could get something like this BUT like they say the buyer is never wrong on ebay, but it would let you know that they pulled the ole' switcheroo on you and you will know better than to do any more business with that buyer at least til they change their ebay I.D: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-in-1-Lumi...UAAOSwzcJdCh13

Re: Bauhn ATVS58 Mainboard issue

Unfortunately that's one of the problems with selling parts. You can ask for a photo of his board and yours. I've had people buy for a model eg LG43LH5100 when in fact the set is an LG43LH5100-ZE which has a completly differnet mainboard.
Or...it hasn't cured the fault so wishes to return it by claiming it doesn't work.

I guess you'll never know for sure.

I had a Bauhn ATVS58 that was working except a cracked screen so I parted it out.

I sold the mainboard on ebay and now the guy is emailing me saying that it doesnt work?

It was working when I pulled the tv apart, so I am wondering...

He says the original board is "going in a loop" and when he puts my board in there is no power?

Why would there be no power from my mainboard and why is his in a loop?

Im a bit wary as there is little stopping people from buying my boards, saying they dont work and sending me back their originally bad board for a full refund.

From what i remember and see on the photo of it, any serial number or mac address etc is only on a sticker on the board, so if they swap them over I dont know what I can do to prove it isnt the one I sent, if thats what happens.

Not sure what to do apart from asking him if the box looked damaged when he got it. I know I wrapped it pretty well in bubble wrap etc.
