I won an auction for a xbox 360 on ebay. The description read that it came with a perfectly working console and power cord (strange thing to list, really), no HDD, and a broken controller. So I bid, and I won. I figured I'd bid on another HDD that was already up for auction somewhere else (I won it, and it worked in the xbox) and use the controller I have for my PC.
I received the Xbox the 14th, and plugged it in, and tried playing some games (excited about the xbox, I already started buying some games, including GTA V) and the thing started sounding like a photocopier, and it wouldn't read the game. Horrified, I took out the game and inserted another, same noise.
The xbox was clearly broken and opened a case against the seller. It's been a couple days now, and the seller is insisting that I'm "exaggerating" about the Xbox and won't give me a refund.
I'm really lost here, I've never dealt with a scammer on ebay before. I got scammed once on amazon with a CPU cooler, but I was refunded right away.
What do I do?
oh and btw the power cord is missing the grounding prong, the disc tray sticks, it had cola spilled on it years ago that was only attempted to clean up, the xbox has scratch mark obviously from a screwdriver trying to get it open. None of that was listed in the description of the item.
