Lee R Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 I sold my Chameleon phone on Ebay. About 3 days after he'd got it, he e-mail me saying it was faulty and he was sending it back to me, wanting a complete refund. At this point i said i'd have to see it first before I refunded, and if nessersary, take it back to the shop to get a report about it. Anyway, i got it back this morning in perfect working order, but they'd pack it so tight in the box, a bit of phone had snapped off I've e-mailed him back asking if it was insured when he posted it, as it's legally his item, and I would not refund now it's broken. I also informed him it's in perfect working order. He reckons it sounded crap and didn't move properly. It does. (It was perfect in every way when I sent it) I havn't heard from him yet. Whats my position on this.????? I also said if he wanted it back, he'd have to send me the postage money first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

escort_16v Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Not 100% sure but under the sale of goods act I'm sure that you are allowed to ask for a refund within the first 14 days regardless of reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

escort_16v Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Here is the clause that they can get you on. Where goods are delivered to the buyer, and he has not previously examined them, he is not deemed to have accepted them under subsection (1) above until he has had a reasonable opportunity of examining them for the purpose— Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waxmonkey Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 should also apply boyo. I'd like to think that when I buy illegal porn from Amsterdam, I can send it back if it dont work properly. They mentioned this in Business law the other week, but i could see Laura's knickers, so I wasn't really payin' attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
