E-BAY damaged print?, by Anchorman on Jun 16, 2007 9:01:43 GMT 1, Hi there everyone....looking for some advice...
I recently bought a print on e-bay and the print has arrived damaged. The print was purchased from an individual etc.. You will never believe how this print was packed anyway I had requested that the seller send it by next day guaranteed delivery but they still sent it by parcelforce.
What I want to know is where do i go from here? The payment was made with a credit card via paypal and it has cleared I think? I sense that I am going to have trouble etc....
Anybody any advice...it would be much appreciated..... The worst thing is I really wanted this print...

1st- report this to ebay as merchandise received is different than described.
2nd- report to paypal and list the same reason.
3rd- Contact your credit card company and make them aware of the issue, and let then know you would like to contest the charges.

trick is to act fast, there are certain deadlines for taking action, but if you report asap and contact all parties i,e. paypal ebay etc then i cant see you would have a problem getting your money back! go on tell us...how was it packages, in a jiffy bag!!!?

E-BAY damaged print?, by ABC on Jun 16, 2007 10:38:42 GMT 1, There is ony one issue that would cause a problem in claiming....Did you sign for the tube? If you did then you are actually signing to say you have received the item in good condition. Madness I know but Its happened to me and the seller couldn't claim via postal insurance becuase I had signed for it. I would go down the credit card route.

I don't think he can ABC because he paid using the credit card through paypal which I'm told exempts the credit card of responsibility. Although in truth this may depend on the small print on each and every credit card so you should still check with the credit card company to see if they will honour the payment..
Fcuking middle men (paypal,visa,postoffice). Buy locally and then meet the person yourself in a bank, thats what i say. Its not worth the sodding grief otherwise.

I bought a print that got damaged in the post and thought 'here we go' and the seller was brilliant - just took it back no problem - even paypalled me the money back and some extra for postage before he even got it back.
There are some nice people out there!
