I just know i am going to lose out on this - China sellers

dickibobboy

Well, i normally have an okay dealing with ebay sellers and very little problems.

I saw a jacket i liked on there located in China, thought it looked genuine which it may well be. My first mistake 99p and £19.99 shipping. Fair enough, plenty of listed items, general good feedback from all angles.

First of all they don't send it when i paid for the item, a few days later i get an email asking if the size i asked for was correct (i had to put this in a message, i am hardly going to mess it up) but fair enough. Except more emails a few more days later! Here are the emails, will set it out as each email and my reply..

Seller : dear friends
i am very sorry for it
i send to the buyer by asia size
and asia size M chest is 36inchs
asia size L chest is 38inchs
asia size xl is about 40inchs
asia size xxl is about 42inchs
so i hope you can select the right size
please tell me the size agian tell me which size do you want ot buy i awiat your email to send the itmes
please check agian

regards

Seller: ok if yout ell me the asia size M i know the size if you don't tell me the asia size M

Well, so far i have had nothing, its been around a month and i know shipping can take a while but its getting rather annoying now. I have emailed the seller asking if the item has been shipped, no reply. I emailed again and still no reply.

I have opened a case in ebay and still no reply there and today is the 10th day so i have to respond with, if anything, what has hapened. No reply from them at all even though they are still trading and selling items on eBay. Today i sent them another message through one of their items for sale. No reply obviously.

I just know that if i am going to get a refund on this its going to be for a little 99p and i will lose out on £20! makes me sad

As long as you paid the whole amount through paypal you'll get the whole amount back.

Why would the refund only be for 99p? If you have a claim for item not received then you will get it all back.

But what do you mean it looked genuine? Genuine what?

You have only 45 days to lodge a PP dispute for item not received, so get cracking.

You will get back, your FULL purchase and postage price, WHEN you win.

I think the seller was trying to be helpfu and ensure you got the correct size. Asia sizes are tiny compared to UK sizes. Someone I know is a UK size 6 so I would call that XS and she said she needed L or XL back home in Asia.

Does look like youve been given the runaround unfortunately. Bit late I know, but mightnt it have been better to avoid any potential confusion with the S-M-L issue, and just tell them the size in inches ?

oh, i did not know that all had to be refunded, i did actually think that it would be just the item and it was one of the reasons why sellers sometimes sell the same item but put on one 99p BIN £19.99 shipping and the others £19.99 BIN 99p shipping. At least i know now

When i tried opening a dispute with paypal earlier it said that this type of item is not supported by paypal so it could not be opened ? Ebay case is still going on and the seller is slow timing. The seller agreed over email that they would refund me the money (in very bad english) if i emailed them the address i use for paypal ? anyway i sent it to them in the email, because of time differences i was asleep when the seller replied again asking if it was the right email address. I replied again to which i got ANOTHER reply in the middle of the night saying is it 100% the right email address! I sent one more email saying that for the 3rd time it was 'abc@abc.com' and it is correct, its the email address i use, it is this address 'abc@abc.com' which i use and the two times i have put it in this email and the other past emails is correct!
:eek:

Please leave a neg for this seller when you get your refund, I wouldn't want to accidentally deal with them.

Aye the problem with buying clothing internationally is that the size given is rarely accurate for UK buyers. If I do buy from China / Japan I go for a M which is a slim fitting small / extra small.

Though I always try and buy from british sellers I did however get a small solar powered i-phone charger for £3 for china the other day which has been a godsend.

The words genuine and China don't really work in the same sentence

You only open 1 case an ebay or a paypal one. If you open a PP one after the ebay one it either refuses or closes it. The ebay case is linked to pp so there is little difference whichever one you open
