Mis-sold TV by local 'engineer' scam

Isn't this ^^^ the only issue?Patty_Odore said:
I can get you a brand new, up to date 50" Samsung TV by tomorrow for £699 and I'll set it up'. We foolishly agreed to that,
Assuming you agreed there and then rather than after he had left this sounds like off-premises to me, right of cancellation would apply, presumably no terms given, if so 1 year and 14 days to cancel for a full refund OP.
From what you've said the issue might be enforcing that.
As the "engineer" seems to have provided no paperwork - and quite possibly doesn't even know what an off-premises contract or a cancellation period are - any discussion of "scams" or what mis-selling means seems unnecessary0
