eBay Help!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

I wonder if someone can help. Basically to cut a long story short I brought 2 x Tablets from a business seller on eBay back in January.

6 Weeks after purchasing them they started to go wrong, I contacted the seller who said to return them and they would repair them.

I did as they requested and never heard anymore, I contacted the seller who said they had received them and were looking at them.

Then about 2 months later they said that one had a cracked screen and they couldn't investigate it until it was repaired which would cost me £25.

I obviously questioned why this wasn't mentioned previously and had only just been mentioned.

Now I am getting no response from the seller & eBay have said that there is nothing more that they can do other than e-mail the seller asking them to get in contact with me :mad:

What can I do next?

Any help please????

    You're outside the 45 days for eBay to help, so you're stuffed on that front.

    Write to the seller with a letter before action giving them 14 days to issue a refund, otherwise you will take them to court for your refund.
    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!)
