    Glad you got it sorted OP.

    Just wanted to clarify about returning it tracked:

    If a buyer wishes to return an item then they must send it tracked, or an unscrupulous seller can claim that they never got it back and so paypal/ebay will not make them refund. Proof of postage may help them claim for a lost item through Royal Mail, but it must be tracked to win a paypal/ebay dispute as you need to enter the tracking details to prove the seller has received it back. The risk is admittedly small as I like to think that most ebay sellers are honest and would send the refund regardless once they got the item back, but better to be safe than sorry! (Obviously for a low cost item you might decide it is worth the risk rather than paying the extra for tracking).


    As per Bigredant, the buyer only needs to protection of tracked delivery if they have a potentially dodgy seller, I see no indication here that we need to have any worries at all about the seller as that is the OP.

    Yes I completely agree, just wanted to make it clear for others reading this thread why it is always recommended for the buyer to return things tracked - didn't mean to imply there was anything dodgy about the OP ;)

    Thanks every1: with regards to Asda i believe my mum tried to return it just after the 28days and it was a sale item or something like that.

    buyer has left positive feedback after that!

    knew nothing was wrong with the item as the other item i sold of the exact same circumstances with different pattern, the other buyer said she was very pleased with the item!
