finding a sellers verified paypal postal address

anderson8

i recently bought something on ebay which has turned out to be fake, the seller has agreed to a refund on return and has given me his address to post it back.
i just want to make sure im sending it to the correct address and im not going to get diddled as this is quite a high value item

Hi anderson, can I ask what the item is and if it is possible to get it in writing that it is a fake? If you can obtain this then you can file a 'fake' claim with paypal which requires you to destroy the item not return it.

Of course, while all the above is lovely in theory it does often depend on what that item is as some manufacturers are much more helpful than others.

it is a set of GHD straighteners, i contacted GHD and they told me they were fake due to a code on them.
ive also read somehwhere that GHD wont verify fakes for sake of ebay.
the guy does seem very genuine and is a 100% power seller and didnt realise himself they were fakes.
he has told me his address in an email via ebay
