Quick Ebay Question

Steve2000 · 22 May 2009 at 17:05

I have just bought something on ebay, got it here, turns out to be cheap tat that doesn't actually work as described.

Now I have been on to the seller, explained the situation, explained that I don't want it as it does not do what I wanted it to do, and he has offered me a refund minus postage cost, final value fee, listing fee and paypal fee.

Does he actually have the right to demand all of those from me? I know I would front the postage cost, but the other three?

Is he taking the **** here?

Make a disput on paypal for everything.

What was it that you bought?

It's happened to 60%-70% of ebay users!
Open dispute, Submit facts and they should sort it.

Why do people still use it? :confused:

and what did you buy?

It was an mp4 player that is supposed to work in docking stations (as described by the seller). I even sent him the model number of my station in an email to confirm it would work, and he said it would. It doesn't.

Well i presume he wants to relist but he should pay not u for relisting when he gets the item back. Bloody cheek.

Do a dispute via PayPal unless he's willing to give you a full refund.
