bought an S308 off of her, left for Portland the next day..
i was not aware that the phone was from HK until i met up with her, at the time, i wasn't aware, and didn't think "hey, the charger is from HK also, so it might not work here".. i call her 5 mins after handover of money and phone, she says "oh, i forgot, uhhh.. yea, go to RadioShack and buy one..
i wasn't expecting to go and pay more money for an adapter..
so i go and check both Surrey RadioShacks, neither one of them has it.. the first thin battery runs out of power after like, 4 hours of use..
so i stick in the other battery.. it wasn't full so i just kept it on for the trip, just incase of emergencies.. made a call to my parents telling them i got to Portland alright.. turned off the phone and left it in the car while i was there.. it was a Seminar so i didn't need a phone and it was out in the woods so there was no reception, another reason why i turned off the phone..
2 days later, turn it back on and leave Portland heading back to Surrey.. stopped at a couple of malls, checked out RadioShacks in Portland, neither mall had an adapter, and i didn't wanna buy a car charge rbecause every place sold car chargers for 29.99USD.. 40CDN or so.. i get to Seattle, check out a mall there, the radioshack there doesn't have it either.. places were selling chargers for like, 30-35USD, so i didn't bother to buy one..
got to Bellingham and the phone ran otu of battery.. 8 hours use approximately

i call her as soon as i get home telling her that i don't want the phone anymore, because i'm just fed up with it.. it all began because of her dishonesty, so it would be best if she took the phone back.. she says no.. blah blah.. gives me a whole bunch of BS excuses blah blah..

in the end, i'm not happy with my product, and i'm not happy with her attitude towards this.. i tried talking to her maturely, but she didn't take it.. so i got pissed and cussed.. blah..

and i hear this isn't the first time she's sold something bad to someone before.. i don't recommend this seller AT ALL
