Well I would have thought I was bidding on a vest. It is described as a vest in the title and in the description it is described as a 'shirt', which I thought referred to the vest.
I am on the buyers side and can see why they left negative feedback as the seller was not very helpful in their replies.My daughters are my world0 -
I don't know if it's right or not, but you might be able to get the feeback removed as he threatened you with negative feedback and this is against the rules.Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you. Anne Lamott
It's amazing how those with a can-do attitude and willingness to 'pitch in and work' get all the luck, isn't it?
Please consider buying some pet food and giving it to your local food bank collection or animal charity. Animals aren't to blame for the cost of living crisis.0 -
Well, thank you for the replies and I'll certainly give them some thought.
However, his latest message makes me chuckle
"its ok jonny paypal will work this one out as you simply do not have the mentality to understand that returning this undescribed item will cost me more than its worth, "
He obviously doesn't understand that he's obliged to return it 'tracked' and I'm only obliged to refund the original postage.
As an aside, how does one go about getting feedback removed?0 -

Actually a good seller will refund the return postage as well if they were at fault. He is also only obliged to send it back tracked to avoid issues with dodgy sellers who may pretend it hasn't arrived.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

And if I had misrepresented the item, I'd do this happily.
However, this buyer has been and is being stupid. I'm not prepared to pay for that - especially after defamatory feedback.0 -
did you originally send it with tracking?0

most of mine/my oh's vests have sleeves, some even have full sleeves so i agree that the buyer is a numpty, but the OP could have gone about this a little better (and yes take out the postage bit from your listings!)Nonny mouse and Proud!!
Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience!!

I'm with the seller, It's the buyers fault for not checking what he was buying. If we wanted a particular style he should have fired off an email asking what style of item he was purchasing.0
Maybe ask to use his picture, saves confusion in the future.
