linkedin123 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 So I love Fiverr and all… but, some sellers are more than a handful.Like many of you, I’ve bought plenty of gigs on here - some really awesome, and others less amazing.And I’ll never forget the time I ordered a cartoon drawing from this fragglesrock.Talk about a guy who could not communicate. I mean, I still gave him the benefit of the doubt (based on his work samples provided) - but, that too was a horrible idea!Let me break it down for you.I needed a drawing of a crow. For a mascot. So, to make it easy, I sent him the actual image and requested that he replicate it. Sounds easy enough, right? Wrong! Instead of using the image as a reference, Mr. Pablo PicantPaintForShit thought it was appropriate to send me a sketch of Donald Duck wearing a fedora in the heat of the night.At first, I laughed and asked for revisions. When the revisions were returned with Donald Duck in Levi Jeans, I lost it.I asked for a refund and shared a new vocabulary with Pablo.Now that I think about it, I don’t recall ever getting refunded…Am I alone? Would love to hear similar stories, unless of course - you’ve only had perfect experiences! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accessgirl Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I’m sorry, but I’m lmfao. How is a crow even interpreted as a duck, let alone Donald duck. W…t…f… and why would he do a revision with Donald in levi’s? I know this was probably a really crappy experience for you, but it is a bit funny. Also “Pablo PicantPaintForShit” …lol. In all seriousness, you could try to get a refund ( contact cs ) or at least leave a proper rating for the cheeky seller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonbaas Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Oh, this experience made me laugh. I think, of all the odd experiences I’d read about here on Fiverr, yours takes the cake! 😃If I may be so bold as to say… your experience would even work quite well as a comedy bit for a stand-up comedian. Some of the best humor comes from actual real life experiences – and, man, this one sounds like a doozy!I’m sorry you had this particular experience as a buyer, but I am thankful for the laugh this evening!

imrobertson Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 LMFAO - I feel your pain - but the way you tell the story is funny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbrewolf Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 That’s awesome! Like a Fiverr Sharknado story. Something so bad, the lasting result is probably more memorable than if you had received exactly what you wanted. grinNow I want to turn that concept into a gig. loltimbrewolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruffcut Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 It’s because half the sellers that sell images like this don’t actually draw them they just use PSD’s found online and edit them slightly - I guess he couldn’t find one of a crow.What I do when ordering images is do a reverse image search on Google before accepting and leaving feedback just to see if that image can be found elsewhere online.
