Hey all, I'm wondering if anyone else has had dealings (positive or negative)
with Rene Virsik.
I participated in Rene's auction (it was on RTL) during early August (or
perhaps late July, I forget the actual ending date of the auction.) The name on
the email account posting the auction was actually "Juraj Pilka", while the
name attached to a separate account was "Rene Virsik".
After the auction concluded, I transferred money to her(his? I know Rene can be
male or female...) bank account. After a week, I asked my bank whether the
transaction had gone through. It had. I emailed Rene asking for confirmation,
and she replied that she had recieved the money (August 26th).
Several weeks later, I was growing concerned that the sets had not arrived yet
(they were coming from Germany, and experience in other auctions had suggested
about 1-2 weeks for delivery from Germany). I hadn't given up on it though,
since I wasn't really sure how long it would take...
On September 16th, I recieved an email that she had been on vacation, and had
apparantly misplaced? my address (she wanted it again). She said she would
email the sets out ASAP. So I re-emailed my address.
A little more than two weeks later (October 2nd), I emailed asking for
confirmation that the sets had been sent. The next day she replied saying that
the sets had indeed been sent out.
On October 12th, she emailed me again, saying that she had mislabeled the
package with the wrong address, and it had been mailed back to her as
undeliverable. She said again that she would send it out with the correct
address.
It is now more than 1 month later (November 15th... almost 3 months since the
end of the auction). I have still not recieved my sets, and I would think that
1 month is certainly enough delivery time (from the date she said the sets
were re-sent). But perhaps I am wrong. I don't know.
In the meanwhile, I hate giving out bad reports on people... so this isn't a
confirmed "bad rap". I haven't given up hope that my sets may arrive suddenly
in the mail, but I'd like to know if anyone else out there has delt with Rene,
and what sort of dealings they were. I know Rene reads Lugnet (I've seen a
couple of posts from her), so perhaps she can also provide some references or
something too.
Thanks,
DaveE

| Update: Sounds like I may just be panicy. According to someone else that I talked to, surface mail (which I am assuming it was) takes between 6-10 weeks for delivery. So it could very possibly still be on the way... Sorry to panic anyone else (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.people)
