Buying from Tesco Outlet on Ebay

RHemmings

Has anyone bought anything from Tesco outlet on Ebay? I've just bought a camera, and it was reasonably cheap (60% of discounted online new price), and also pretty much new. The box had been opened. Unless it was repacked very carefully after it was returned, assuming it was a return, then whoever bought it didn't even bother looking at it.

Looking through their completed listings, there do seem to be a number of things that sell for a very good price. They do get negative feedback concerning things that don't work, but it's a small proportion of the overall feedback they get. In the past month, 12365 positives, 72 neutrals 33 negatives. That's still > 99% positives.

It looks like something to keep an eye on for bargains. But, does anyone else have experiences to share?

i've used tesco on ebay several times, they have always been fast with delivery.
i was also apprehensive when i first bought from them but the item was like new the only thing different was the manual wasn't the original but a printed version however considering the price we paid , we didn't care

My OH bought a portable DVD player off them last year and after approx 3 months it developed a fault. He contacted them and they asked him to return it and they would refund the full cost + postage as they no longer stocked that model !! Money was quickly refunded to his Paypal account, so can recommend them:)

It's not unusual for big brands on eBay to try and get rid of returns, sometimes argos do the same

all the big names do it.

its the same as a retailer can go and order a pallet of returns from distibution warehouses but some items may not work
