WM8650 ROM Upload "Fails All the Time" Says eBay Seller

In the hopes that I could upgrade the operating system (also known as ROM or OS) to Uberoid on my Wondermedia WM8650 tablet I had written a message to the eBay seller:

Okay, I will try to work with you and solve this problem. If you can give me the product's exact model number and a download link to create a bootable SD card for reinstalling the operating system then it might work. Yes I have gone to the Market but it is fake, I need the real one. The whole operating system is fake I will probably have to upgrade the operating system eventually to Uberoid or Rudroid to get the real Market, if you can give me a link to upgrade that would be excellent.

In a nutshell, I could solve the problem myself if only this eBay seller would tell me the model number of the WonderMedia WM8650 tablet that he had sold to me (or Superpad, Flytouch, ePad, or whatever else he wanted to call it). Here is the response that I got from the seller:

Thanks for you. We are trying to upload it because it is so large it fails all the time but we are trying to do all the time. Do not worry.

So basically the seller was telling me to continue waiting. I was surprised that he or the manufacturer did not already have an active download link that they could just refer me to. Meanwhile I continued my own tinkering with the tablet’s software, and in the middle something happened which started to make the touchscreen act bizarre (I thought it was phantom clicking or perhaps a virus or online invasion, but now I realize most likely it was a problem with the script in the OS that does not match with the type of touchscreen chip code that these tablets have). Eventually the WonderMedia WM8650 tablet got totally bricked and the screen would not come on. I told the eBay seller about this and tried giving him some options to resolve issues in my next message.
