unreasonable ebayer? or is he right?
Anyway got a message yesterday (thursday) again saying that hes been more than patient and wants a full refund today? now bearing in mind its been 7 days today since he brought it and its only the 5th day since it was posted (standard parcels) i feel hes being very unfair.
Im not refunding him untill the 14th day which is when its classed as lost by RM.
So is it just me or is this guy being a total dikc

I must buy 2 or 3 items of ebay every week and I expect them to come within a week.
Sometimes things arrive the next day which amaze me but 1 week is my thinking.
I just sold a few things and the bidding finished on the Saturday, I like you posted them on Monday and they would have received their goods 2nd class prob on the Thursday or Friday and that is the description that is in the postage section - 5 working days.
He is just a ckdi

We bought an item ( not car related ) and waited a week still no joy, then contacted the seller, she said she will dispatch another item and a further 5 days later still not received either, then I gave her 3 days for a refund as it had been over 14 days since original purchase. We even checked at the post office to see if it was being held.
Less than one week is unreasonable. He will probably say he has never received the item and yet it he probably fitted it to his car on Wednesday.

I worked in the motor trade for years. In general, people take the **** all the time. Buying things, then bringing the old one back, saying it's broken etc. I even had a customer with a ten year old Volvo (I ran 2 Volvo garages at the time) with 250,000 miles on it, she blew the gearbox up on holiday in France, and wanted the car towed back & fixed for free! Yeah right!
Th best customers I had was when I ran a Lotus garage, they knew they were going to go wrong, and had deep pockets. They NEVER got upset!
Maybe a good idea to take pictures of the item before being sent, then you have proof of items condition before hand.
Dont let 'em get to you.

how much were the items?
at least a 5day courier you would have had tracking no for him to look at
he's just trying to get his money back, i got this loads with me toolshack, dicks trying to get more stuff for free
often with ebay seller will bend over backwards not to get negative feed back so the buyers often try it on
you should alway note on you ebay the dispatch time and delivery times, that way they have no come back

Pics are in the listings showing condition, also my postage time states 3 days, this allows weekends etc guys just being a tool
That's not on, why not report him to eBay for being unreasonable of what ever wording they use?
You've got all the proof on your side. Copy of posting, the communication between you both.
Copies of the messages you can copy & paste them in the text field when you make the complaint.
(that's what I did once and the Guy shut up pretty quick).
You know he's going to go to eBay with this, so why not get in the first punch!
He's a knobhead, so let eat shit and die (only used as a figure of speech of course).
Good luck Mate.

She very rarely involves ebay as they would soon notice what she was up to by the amount of complaints she makes so she contacts them direct.
Its exactly as someone has already said, most ebayers will just give a full refund to protect their feedback, I have done it myself many times.
She mainly targets iPhones and electronic fashion accessories.
Be warned!

like one of eBay's many A hole's. I use parcelmonkey to send most of my items cheaper than (RM) tracked and the buyer has to sign for it.
