[QUOTE="Clavdivs, post: 8192272, member: 93702"]Well I would have only had 3 choices as per your title, correct? -A) IDIOT -B) NUTS -C) LANGUAGE ISSUE I think you're pretty book smart - so IDIOT is out (in my opinion) While stating that you're not an Idiot, I have to balance that with the fact you spent 3K on a coin at 3am without proper investigation and due diligence on your part. However we all make mistakes - I have made many myself (but not in this price range..). LANGUAGE ISSUE seems to be an easy out. However you knew what you were dealing with - you identified the language of the seller, attempted to translate and missed the subtleties of the language in the description... and ordered a 3K coin at 3am without 100% clarification.. only to get burned. I notice that "impropriety by the seller" is not an option in your thread title. So this is obviously a "buyer" issue .. you knew it when you made the thread .. but your opinion on this point seemed to change as the thread went on... I'm glad you got your money back.[/QUOTE]
