    Yes, I applied for a return, seller duly accepted it. Then the kerfuffle over the returns postage. Eventually got seller to arrange a collection. Item is still in transit according to tracking but seller has already said it isn't faulty and won't refund.

    It may be back with him and tracking hasn't updated.

    Just wanted a heads up.

    Note - I think you missed out 3, but that applies anyhow.

    1. I contacted seller through my account.
    2. I waited more than 2 business days.
    3. The item was faulty. (It meets one of the conditions outlined).
    4. N/A
  • Does anyone have any idea of timescale? Do I wait for the return to show as delivered, then give the seller more time, if so, how much?

    Just contact Amazon customer services, you'll get a refund straight away.
