Maybe I helped change eBay policy

I really bitched at them lately about their item return policy.
So, I not only bitched at them, but I contacted a government branch also.
Well, today, as opposed to just three weeks ago, they have a new return program set up. Now they offer you to drop it off at the post office, or they will schedule a pick up.
My bitch was, what about the handicapped who have no transportation, under their old policy, they were basically screwed.
So, may be I helped change that. I have no transportation. Now it is taken care of.
The item I am returning are six cables which have dvi at one end, typical dell monitory, and a male display on the other end, typical graphic card.
I tried three of them, all dead, so I postulated simple factory rejects being dumped on eBay. The butt wipe even demanded I take pictures, My cables work fine, but they use a display adapter, I just wanted to reduce cable bulk, but it did not work out, I am still using my old cables.
Anyway the idiot thought I was stupid, I told him the truth, I was trained as an electronic tech, even repaired cables on the F 4 fighter planes during the Vietnam war. Cables either work or they do not. If they do not, they are either trashed or repaired.
