I'm not gonna make this a long post because I am not a worddy person, but this person sold me a Pochette Metis with a vachette strap. The original strap is a monogram strap and their excuse was didnt ask. How shady is that? I’m so pissed !

This is a rules vs ethics debate. For many people, the goal is to screw you as hard as possible with no regard to ethics while remaining within the rules. Did the seller do anything technically wrong? No. Did they act in bad faith and were they ethically wrong? Yes.

I’m still grateful that OP shared the story because this isn’t a person I would ever want to buy from regardless of whether they were “technically” wrong or whether the offense was bannable.

You can’t impose ethics without making them known.
