Seller isn't in Hull is he? Same happened to me...and when I returned it, it apparently 'got lost'...so I lost out big time!
you should be able to claim some money back from Royal Mail, give them a call, i think Recorded Parcels are insured up to £50.
You'll have an annoying form to fill out but you could result in getting some money back, even if it isn't from an original source0 -

I wouldn't hold your breath with trading standards, unless this seller is selling 100s...
Do you actually have the sellers home/business address? You will need to communicate with them in WRITING!Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -
Yes the seller sent me an invoice with this information on sent recorded delivery they've already told me I can go to small claims court0
