Play.com trader Poundmart

Can I warn everyone about the cheap tat that the Play.com trader, Poundmart provides.
Take the seller's descriptions with a large pinch of salt. For example, what is listed as “Mario
Kart Steering Racing Wheel For Wii” is 'not' what you would find included with the Mario Kart game.
What is supplied would function with the game but it has none of the lines, the weight or the oversized button on the underside of the wheel supplied with the game. It has a whiff of the ‘Pound-shop’ about it. Play sell the official wheel for about £6 so I was expecting a better item than what was supplied, the lack of a picture with the listing was unhelpful as I could have avoided it, having the benefit of a visual comparison.
And Poundmart are nasty when trying to get a refund, and are quite happy to stay mute about refunding postage costs until after they have the item back, then they say 'get lost'. Give Poundmart the old heave ho and either buy from another seller or spend much less on genuine cheap crap from the local Pound shop.
