Screenshots of Communication: SS1SS2
Additional Information: It's been over 2 weeks since i've been talking to him and it's been a long while since I've paid him, I can send the proof of payment to the mods/admins if needed, but basically he told me he would give me the finished work within 1-2 days since it isn't resourceful to spend more time than that on a gfx for a customer, but he has been delaying and ghosting me after providing me half completed work that I didn't like. He's told me multiple times that it won't take that long, "will do it by the end of the day" yadayadayada, but has never followed his words. I am simply not interested in the gfx from his side anymore as I have already paid someone else to do it for me 2 days ago.
I am not satisfied with his work at all, and I don't want to use his service anymore, i'd like a refund of my full payment asap.

Your work is already delivered.
You requested an Edit and Extra slide.
I even gave you the discount and you paid for your service once I completed the banner.
I haven't finished your edits yet since I started on totally new design, which can be delivered as soon as possible.
As you can see, we made agreements for your payment after FINISHED DESIGN you even bargained and now you're looking for refund which is not possible since you already have the first version of your banner. I can do the last slide right now, but you're not going to get new version of your design.

First of all, you completing the GFX yourself without any inputs from the customer doesn't mean you "completed" the design. First of all, you being so confident and stating that my design won't take more than a few hours has just gone outside the window.
Second, I don't like the first slide out of the 2 slides of the GFX you provided, so it basically means it's not up to the mark.
Thirdly, the requests I have made are completely appropriate? I asked you to add a slide with the payment methods, since it was for my service? Why are you thinking you could charge more for that? That comes free with the GFX like what? Who would want to make a GFX about their product and not list the payment methods you take for it? If that's too much work for you, maybe don't do GFX on here.
Lastly, this isn't your first Scam report you're going through because you fail to deliver your products on time and ghost people. I know you got my message and you've just been ignoring it until I opened up a report about you.
I don't require you to finish the half-done GFX anymore, I'll need my money back. Thanks.
Edit: SS3SS4(IMP)
As you can see from the screenshots above, all I received before being pushed to pay him his money, was a static image of the 2nd slide, and the cover animation for the Banner was not even according to the specifications I had provided.
All the time, I was being forced to pay, before I could even see the rendered animation part of the GFX which is the main thing I'm paying for. Otherwise the static banner I can make myself...
Even before I paid the money he took around 3 days to fully finish the rendering of HIS interpretation of my request
I wasn't even given a chance to talk about the animation itself because of his attitude: SS5SS6SS7
There's so many things wrong at so many points with his service and his part of customer satisfaction, this is just overall a bad business practice.

"Second, I don't like the first slide out of the 2 slides of the GFX you provided, so it basically means it's not up to the mark."
I'm not sure what exactly you want to say with this, because nowhere before anything have you actually written exactly what you want. In the sense that you have provided information for each slide. You just gave me a text to work with and that's it. If I'm wrong, please correct me with proof.
"Thirdly, the requests I have made are completely appropriate? I asked you to add a slide with the payment methods, since it was for my service? Why are you thinking you could charge more for that? That comes free with the GFX"
You asked for an additional slide after you lowered the price yourself because you had previously spent money on another banner, which I unfortunately agreed to. You added a slide that wasn't part of the deal, which doesn't mean it's free if you remember in the meantime. Of course I could have charged for such a service, the fact that you are not informed is really not my problem.
"I don't require you to finish the half-done GFX anymore, I'll need my money back. Thanks."
The problem is that the banner is actually finished, I am not responsible for your additions that you only remembered when the work was submitted. I had to work on it myself because you didn't explain anything. You can't get the money back since you only paid when it was your turn (when I already submitted the design)
"As you can see from the screenshots above, all I received before being pushed to pay him his money, was a static image of the 2nd slide, and the cover animation for the Banner was not even according to the specifications I had provided."
You asked me about custom 3d chest animation, which costs much more than $35. I told you that I would do the best possible design, but it was about the ratio of price and quality.
I don't know who you are to tell me how I should do or not do this work, you were not forced to pay, but you were obliged to pay, considering that the work was already completed. Even if
it was finished, you set me various conditions and blackmails before actually sending the money, and as I mentioned before, you lowered the price for yourself, which I unfortunately agreed to.
You saw that I had a previous scam report, you took the design and decided to save your $35 by refunding it and keeping the previous work. that's not how this situation should end. The last scam report on me was refunded only because the customer didn't actually get anything he paid for. But this is unacceptable.
I also don't know who told you that infinite slides are included in your price. I really don't know what kind of designers you've worked with, but you have absolutely no right to talk about anything since you have no idea what you're talking about.
I can't knock anymore, I really don't want any argument. If you didn't already have the budget to cover everything, you shouldn't have agreed to my offer. Also, if I forgot something, I will follow up by editing this reply.

All the proof of conversation is provided. I do not have to provide anything else. I have said all I have to say and prove, now I'll be waiting for the moderators to decide what happens next.

Lol, this is so stupid. It's like asking a person to pay for the cutlery when eating at the restaurant... You do you, I'll wait for the mods to comment on this one.

Really isn't, it has not been made as per my instructions and directions. I am not happy with the way it turned out. You can't just make an animation which half-fullfills the request of the customer and call it Completed.

PLEASE send me the screenshots where you said it'll affect the overall design and quality of the GFX that I'm getting. Negotiation is a part of any deal made anywhere and it's upto the seller to agree or disagree, if they want to provide their services at a price agreed upon by both parties. If you agree to a price for a banner, I expect you to give me a high quality banner for what Im paying for. Just because I negotiated $10 with you doesn't mean you're gonna deprecate the quality and the art on the banner I'm receiving without informing me either, that's just bad business practice.

You are actually so funny. If negotiating and asking for improvements in a gfx banner is blackmailing you, even having sent the money after, please just work on understanding what the person is trying to actually convey, and your job as a gfx artist is to make a banner upto my requests, you're nobody to twist my vision on the banner that I requested and paid for and make your version of it and call it completed, without conveying any caveats or requests from your side.
I am once again making this clear for the moderator and everyone viewing this. I was never even once told that negotiation of price would lead to lower work quality and overall half-fulfilled request. I would not have ever moved on with the GFX in that case. I am deeply dissatisfied with the quality of work, and not half of my requirements listed before paying him were fulfilled. I stand by my decision to receive a refund for the waste of my time ( 2+ weeks for 1 gfx ) and money.

There's no point of arguing. I can offer to re-do the first slide and to add the last one. But I'm not willing to provide the refund since you already got your design. I'll be waiting for moderator's reply
