    Ebay is a fucking joke.

    Bought a listing to get the screen "fixed" or "replaced" and I had to ship the whole head unit to a guy in Texas(Shipping there was on my dime -$13 USPS flat rate). The listing was to replace the screen if broken or unresponsive, which the unit was. Wouldn't press any options at all.
    I even messaged the guy BEFORE buying the listing explaining what was wrong with the unit and he said that he was 100% that the touch screen was messed up and it would fix the issue. Okay, great. I paid the $110 and shipped the unit to him to get repaired, he "fixed" it the same day and got it shipped back out to me the next day. Awesome.

    Got it back on Friday hoping to install it and be on my way with a radio that works. NOPE. Radio still does the SAME FUCKING THING it did before I shipped it to the guy who was supposed to "replace/fix" the screen.

    Messaged the guy and he said that he tested it multiple times before shipping it back out and it was fully functional. Okay, so what happened between here and there? The one I have does not work just like before I sent it to him.

    Messaged him again asking what I could do to fix it, he said to try to reset it, I did. He said remove the face and put it back in and press it firmly to make sure it was it, I did. STILL DOES NOT WORK.

    Seller doesn't reply now.

    Called eBay customer support and spoke to a woman on the phone for about 35 minutes. Told her what was happening, what was wrong and everything and what the listing was for.
    After talking to her on the phone for 30+ minutes all to just figure out that i'm not protected by anything because it's a service and I can't actually send something back to get a refund. So she said unfortunately there's nothing they can do about it and i'll just need to work it out with the seller.

    To boil it down, DO NOT buy a "service" on eBay. It's a fucking joke and you're essentially giving someone free money for something they did or did not do and you're fucked if it doesn't work.

    Out of $110 and the shipping costs. Such a fucking joke.

    Pretty day today. 72 degrees 5 mph winds. Real nice. Between all the guys, we caught 7 keeper flounder, 1 Spanish, 1 puppy drum, and 7 blues. Decent day
