Repair under warranty - what if discovered counterfeit or refurbished by unauthorised party?
Hi all I purchased a used Dyson airwrap for around £400 from eBay, from a seller that has 99.8% rating from almost a million items sold, so I assumed they were a reputable seller.

I bought this instore at Sainsburys Nissin Soba Protein Classic Instant Wok Style Noodles Pot 92g | Sainsbury's The reason I bought it was simple. It said in very large lettering on the front "Source of protein - 18g per pack". I reasonably took the "per pack" at face value and took it to mean "per pot". I would not have…
