Thanks. Is this actually stated somewhere in the terms and conditions?

If you ever wondered what 13 boxes of books looked like in an average sized living room



I decided to bite the bullet and go back for them and make an attempt at sorting, the boxes are for the duds, the rest are possibles but not certainties.

My dearest husbands eyebrows are just about back in their normal place now.....

Sadly you do have to give the refund inc original postage paid but you don't have to pay postage for them to return it to you. Make sure you ask them to send it back via a trackable source though (Recorded or Special).

Are you sure you have to refund the postage? Amazon don't do that themselves if your just returning it because you don't want it. Not being rude, just think that is out of order if that is in their T&Cs

Wrong link, use the Img link rather than the tag ref from photobucket:

Be careful what you think are duds.
I had a book on Fuchsia, by Leo Boullemier Signed. I was the only one on Amazon to have it. It was in Good condition. I stuck it on for £50, and it sold in a couple of days.
You never know what someone else will want.

I too think it is out of order but yes it is there, somewhere, & I personally don't like the idea that they can just change there minds but that's what it says:mad:

Hi

Thanks for having a look for me, I am going to see how much they go for on e-bay first and then decide. I have tried completed on E-bay but no results came up for me.

I searched under Elford, 40 live results came up. 2 of which related to the book you have - I made a mistake earlier the £10 listing was a live listing and has now gone up to £16.

The completed listing show the same author but not the same book.

Re: Special Delivery. I use it for valuable items since a pair of £92 Sidi Motorbike boots that I sold alledgedly went missing. Then Royalfail standard insurance was only £28. The buyer lost out not me as I refunded what I was given from Royalfail, I got neutral feedback. To be honest I think the buyer was at it as I was new to ebay but I no longer take the risk. If you sell a book for £75 I would rather be safe than sorry. The Elford books are very light therefore it would be the cheapest rate. I have sold 4, 2 devils Guard from Carboot/Market finds, one which I bought to sell and one of his other books which isn't as valuable.
