This is a gorgeous piece of land situated on a river in Louise, just west of Foxfield. It is moderate rated, and in a quiet area, with neighbours who have decorated their lands in-keeping with a riverside/beachy feel, so the area is also quite scenic. The land can be lowered to be a water plot or it can be mostly land or a mixture of land and water. Add a beach, or grass, or both. You can add a house, boats and a jet ski! The possibilities are endless with this little gem of a piece of land, so you can create the perfect getaway. No objects are included in the sale, so this is fresh, clean slate for you to get creative! The sale price is set at $7500 and I am open to offers.

I don't think any reasonable person would agree it is fair or right for a real life landlord to accept rent, keep it and then tell you you can't rent any of their properties after all, and refuse to talk to you though. Yes there are small claims courts in RL, but I'm pretty sure you'd win in that case anyway. I think it's entirely fair to consider it possibly being fraud if someone takes your money and then has no intention of providing the service advertised, while refusing to refund the money. I'm really not sure how you would defend that.

Maybe so, but if a landlord takes your money and then ends up refusing to let you rent with them, bans you from the region and accuses you of causing trouble when you have done nothing wrong, except request a refund or an alternative, which is ultimately what happened, while also refusing to refund the money, isn't that wrong? I get that you only have my side of the story but I described it as it happened. Obviously am not going to provide more in depth, specific details, because that would be breaking the TOS. I can't 'prove' what happened here, but then I'm not really interested in doing that either. That's all I can really say. I think that most people reading my post can probably relate in some way. It seems like many people i have chatted with have had some pretty awful experiences too. mine certainly isn't an isolated case from what I can tell.

Thank you. Honestly, I don't think the owner had any intention of letting me back, even to the plot they were telling me I should take. I think they got themselves into a corner knowing they should offer something at least, because they knew they had already said they would, but then decided to get argumentative so they could attempt to turn it back around and claim I was trying to cause trouble, and then refuse to have me back for that reason...which is what the owner has done. I probably should have just accepted that parcel though as you said, and it would have made it more difficult for them to not allow me back. I've not been ubanned from the region even though they claim I wasn't banned..It is so transparent you could almost walk right through it! But jokes aside, I don't think I'm going to see the L$ again. LL really need a total rehaul of how disputes like this are handled...Obviously they are not usually gone anywhere near, however you expect a degree of support when you are investing money and time into something. And when someone is using the platform to keep someone's money, without providing the service for which they have advertised, then that is out and out theft on their part. I've been here a long time but it makes me think to hell with it. If someone ever comes up with something to seriously rival SL, and with much better support, and it will happen one day, then I can see a lot of people just upping and leaving.

Today I paid an owner of a rentals company around 2 weeks worth of rent, however they then told me that the rental metre on the parcel was for a different parcel - the one adjacent to it, as the land that I was looking at was in fact a community area and not for rent... this is despite the rental meter being on this land, and the LM given in the external rentals company's website being specifically for this plot, and being advertised with it's own specific name. My argument was that the external website info was displayed incorrectly, and therefore my rent should have been refunded. The adjacent plot which they said was the one for rent did not really match what I wanted. I said I would look at their other available lands as they had quite a lot, and see if there was anything suitable, however the owner refused to refund my L$. It was a considerable amount too, as I had paid about 2 weeks worth of rent up front. I was told that I should have read the rental box properly before paying it. my response was that the correct info should have been displayed on the website, and I even took the LM provided. The owner said they would transfer the rent over to another rent meter instead of refunding me. I admit this annoyed me somewhat as the general attitude was also a bit off, and I felt like I had been misled by their website. I requested again that my L$ be refunded first, and so this became a disagreement, and then the owner told me that I was trolling, and muted me. I left the land. I then communicated with an agent to see if there was any way I could still possibly negotiate a refund, i was told no. I asked then if I could view another parcel, and I tried TPing over to see it. I was however blocked from the region. the agent denied that I was blocked, even though I clearly was. this agent then asked me which parcel I was interested in, but when I gave the agent the LM, they refused to TP me over and began questioning me as to why I would not accept the parcel that I was earlier told was the one for rent. I replied this was because it wasn't the parcel I was led to believe that I was renting via the website, and it didn't suit what I wanted. i asked again if I could view this alternative one i had found, but the agent just kept arguing that I should accept the other one - even though it wasn't the parcel I thought I was originally renting. the agent then said it was a better parcel anyway and then also accused me of trying to cause trouble, and said I was a griefer. I told the agent that this was ridiculous and that all i wanted was to view a parcel of my choice before agreeing to rent it, or have my L$ refunded. If they believed that I was a griefer, why not just give me my refund and get rid of me anyway, so that really made no sense. I was told that I would have to accept the parcel that they were offering, or nothing. I pointed out that I was told that I would be able to rent an alternative, and if not, then they should refund my L$. The agent refused to do this and then muted me., after I told them that I didn't think they really had any intention of allowing me back anyway, and I was still blocked from the area, even though I had asked to be unblocked so I could come and view a parcel to have the rent transferred over to it, as I was originally told would happen. I filed a report to LL under abuse and fraud. I received a reply saying that they don't get involved in disputes between tenants and landlords. I sent a reply to explain that this wasn't really my landlord at all, as this person would not let me rent with them, and had me banned still from the region, however was refusing to return my L$. I am now waiting to see if I hear anything further back, but i am not very hopeful. I have been in SL a long time and never experienced anything like this with renting. someone kept my furniture once, as i went over on the rent by a day, which i felt was a bit over the top, but fair enough, ,my rent was late, and that was my fault. But this situation now just seems wrong to me. It seems my L$ were kept out of sheer greed. I was watching an episode of Lab Gab the other week and Philip Rosedale was talking about how SL could potentially affect people in such a negative way and people could lose a sense of right and wrong, if it wasn't handled in a certain way... It seems like Philip's fear may have already come true. It's quite sad when stuff like this happens. I haven't named the rentals company and I won't do that. I know not all rentals owners behave this way, but it does put me off renting, as i haven't done so in a long time, and this then this happens when I decide to rent a place again after a while.

Beautiful 2048sqm waterfront parcel for sale. Parcel also has water on one side. I have placed a stylish beach house (unfurnished) with it's own decking and a few palm trees. These can be kept by the buyer, and/or returned whenever they decide. The land is beachy and sunset facing. There are rocks to the back of the plot which have been placed by the neighbour who is spaced way back. This is a lovely little private spot with plenty of space and prims being a 2048 parcel, and the area is quiet. I'm selling the land as I feel like a change and want to live within a different landscape. I'm looking for a fairly quick sale, so the land is set at sale price, reduced to L$4,500. This is a total bargain price for the plot size and gorgeous location.

This parcel has now been sold.

As the title says, this beautiful beachy style1024m/351 prims parcel is situated in a quiet, moderate rated area. There is water at the front and to the back of the parcel, and the parcel itself is also slightly part water at the back, which would be great for a dock and boat, leaving plenty of room on the parcel for a home. It could also be terraformed into an all water parcel for a houseboat or for a raised platform on stilts to place a house upon. The parcel is very versatile and the houses across the water at the back can be derendered to create an unblocked view. Obviously they would still be there but you then would have a clear view at the back, across the water. I'm only asking L$2200, so this is a total bargain and viewing is a must! Please feel free to use the landmark below to go and take a look. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Blackmalkin/94/83/23

Oops, thanks Sylvia, I've just corrected it.

Edit: Parcel Sold.

Yeah, I just logged in after a busy day in RL, and noticed that.

Edit: Sold

So yep, I'm looking to buy a 1024m parcel overlooking SLRR track. I'm happy to view any land in-world that meets the above criteria. I would also consider a 1024m parcel that has been/could be split from a larger parcel. Please leave a message here or IM me inworld, thanks.

Thanks a lot Qie! 🙂

As the title asks really. I've seen a large mainland parcel for sale in a perfect spot that I really like, but I'm wondering if the seller would be able to split it, as I am looking to buy a smaller parcel. Obviously the seller might not want to, but I'm just wondering if this would even be possible to do, and also for future reference.

Hi, would you be interested in renting this out with the objects/decor included, (as opposed to selling), and if so how much would the rent be? Thanks.

Land sold.

Hi there Therese, I just saw your message! The parcel is kind of hidden in a corner, so it isn't too easy to find. I will IM you the LM right now in-world, so if you are still looking you are more than welcome to check it out. The land does look a bit messy atm, as I have it a bit up and down but I can raise it where there's water, and flatten/smooth it out if need be, or lower it to be a water parcel, and as I said, I have a selection of houses, so I can include one free ( I can demo these on the land) at no extra cost, if required. Drop me an IM in-world if you need anything. I don't have the land marked up for the sale yet, but if you are interested, I can do that.

I have a beautiful 1024m/351 prims waterfront parcel in Skyridge for sale. I am only asking L$2000 for this little gem of a parcel, only because I am downgrading from premium. This is a total bargain! There are no objects currently on the land to be included in the sale, however I can include a house at no extra cost if you need one. Please let me know about this, as I have a selection of really nice mesh homes that can be chosen from. An included house will obviously count towards your over all prim count. It can be returned to me at any time, (under the 'objects' tab in the 'about land' options,) if you decide that you no longer want it. The land can be terraformed to a mostly water parcel, or mostly land, so you have both options. I currently have it part land, part water, so you can change it up how you like. There is abandoned land to the right and rear of the parcel, which adds some privacy, and to the left there is a neighbour. You are separated from their land by a side channel of water which is part of the waterfront that the parcel faces. The parcel has a pleasant, cosy feel of being tucked away in a corner. I am currently posting this via my phone, and struggling to add a landmark, (will edit on my computer soon,) however you can find the landmark in my profile picks in-world. Please feel free to stop by the land to take a look. Thanks for your interest. ~ Scarlett Fenutzini.

I just saw your post. I'm currently having the same problem. I've tried a few different media players and can't get any of them to work, including one which has reviews as recent as February this year, saying it works well. I was wondering if it was a Flash player issue, seeing as Flash Player discontinued and blocked content that was using it. But I am sure that was before February, so don't get why people would say it still works, if that's the case. My media players get as far as loading the actual vid, and then they return to the start screen. Did you contact the creator of your TV and get any info?
