Perfume Smell on Metal

By (Guest Post)

Try adding a package of ground coffee to the ziplock back. The perfume molecules will bond to the coffee molecules and the smell should be gone in a few hours. Make sure you shake the bag vigorously so that the coffee coats the entire diskman otherwise you won't get a good interaction.

Put the item in a ziplock bag with several pieces of crumpled newspaper, then seal it up and let it sit for a few days. The newsprint somehow absorbs the odors. I know this works with coolers, refrigerators, etc -- it's worth a try!

Trying putting it a bag with a lump of charcoal
Charcoal absorbs all kinds of odours.

Tahnks for the tip. I actually did contact the seller -- more for just an FYI, because he had no way of knowing of my allergies. He had upgraded the unit for the same price when he found the original item I had bid on wasn't up to par. (which was VERY cheap!) so I didn't want to push it. :)

Have you contacted the seller to discuss the complaint yet? If you truly are not satisfied, then the seller should be able to refund your money. Otherwise I would leave a negative feedback. Now on to the current issue at hand..maybe put it in your garage or backyard under shade to air out?? I don't know that one is tricky.
