Not what I expected.

Ok - if you were me would you be happy with this?

I bought it as a gift. Given the picture is square, I assumed that was the case. No. All that arrived was a disc with a picture on the picture on the front in a clear wallet. Disc looks homemade. No instructions, or compatability details so not practical to give as a present.

I've contacted seller but no response.

    From that auction I would guess that its a home made (copied) product.

    Well it says [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]100% Money Back Guarantee[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif], if you are not completely satisfied with your purchase!

    so just keep trying to contact the seller I guess.

    TBH, if it does what it says on the tin, you got what you paid for.

    They do offer a money back guarantee.
    My TV is broken! :cry:
    Edit: refunded £515 for TV 1.5 years out of warranty - thank you Sale of Goods Act! :j

    tbh i would have thought it may have come as just a disc.i would pursue a return/refund as said.
    maybe even make a copy before i returned it ;)

    To be honest, you can pretty much see what you're getting.

    The picture on the disc I have is different to the one in the auction. I thought it was in a case as the auction picture is square.

    This is a picture of the item as it arrived straight out of a plain white envelope

    (for some reason I can't insert a picture direct into my message)


    If I go for a refund I suppose I'm still down on P&P (£3 even though only 1st class stamp used). If I go through Ebay as a dispute will I get my P&P back?
