Abusive Buyer
I posted yesterday about a usb splitter that wasn't working properly. As it was over 30 days I realised after chat on here that I wasn't entitled to anything. But before I posted on here I messaged the seller to ask advice and mentioned that it wasnt working properly. I also had tried to use the eBay help bot about items…

Failed collection or lost parcel?
Dropped off an item (value £130) for DPD at my local Post Office (which is also a DPD collection point). As its a small post office, they tend to tell customers to place their boxes by a cage at the side of the small store so its easier to collect by the courier. Always nervous to do this as its in open reach of anyone…

I bought a usb hub from a registered private seller. It has stopped working properly. It states no returns on their item. I have messaged them and said it's not working properly. I have put a request to return it. It's more than 30 days so I am lost or is there anything I can do. Thanks

To be followed by a message from buyer saying he didn’t have enough money on his debit card to cover it. (Separate question whether he had…

Am I Being Entitled?
I've just received an Ebay purchase, but there is an error. I was supposed to receive a small amount of vegetable seeds (20), but received seeds for a flower instead? My first action was to 'Contact Seller' to request that they sent the right seeds. Immediately my mind went to what, if anything, I'll do with the flower…
