Hi y'all!
Clearly, I'm new.
I bought my kindle on eBay, from a gentleman who said that he didn't use it as much as he thought he was going to. He said that he'd only charged it 2ce in the 2 months that he'd had it. (can you Imagine!) and that it worked fine. He had a 100% feedback score, with several thousand transactions so I felt pretty good about it. When I got it, it was well wrapped in lots of bubble wrap, so I doubt that the shipping caused any damage.
I've read & downloaded several books already, and as promised, that went fine. HOWEVER.
1. It is really tricky to get it to charge from a wall outlet. You really have to play with it, and prop the cable to get it to charge at all. Is this normal? fixable?
2. I charged it all night last night, and still no green light. The light was a steady yellow when I went to bed, and a blinking yellow when I got up. The battery had charged, some, but what's up with the light?
I am planning on contacting customer service tomorrow when they open again, but though there might be some night owls out there who could give me advice tonight. Thanks in advance!
