Failure to do so automatically results in a dispute case for me if the seller is non-negotiable. I think theres even a ebay rule somewhere about this. A few times i have recieved a new item but because it wasnt packed well or not packed to my instructions its turned up damaged & so if the seller wont come to an agreement,i open a dispute. The odd time the seller just gave a partial refund which is much easier & cheaper than sending anything back overseas

He's offered to give me a refund of ?79.60 (bizarre, I know, why he wouldn't just round it up to 80) as he claims he won't pay for postage back and is still insisting that it wasn't ripped before he sent it, so is taking some off for that.

I paid ?85 for it, so I'm not sure whether to open a case or just cut my loses, I know I'm definitely correct, but is it worth ?5.40 and what might be a long, drawn out case to get it back? I'm getting the sense he knows I'm not oblivious to what he's done and I'm quite clued up.

Chances are it wouldn't be long drawn out... Sounds like he's just trying to refund most of it without admittiing guilt. Paypal won't refund your post back even if they come down on your side which is bizarre! They will prob issue a full refund when you have proved you have returned it (signed post)

Depends on the hassle you can be arsed with really - what a git! Does he have pics of it new at all?

By ebay rules the seller of an item doesnt have to pay return postage,its up to the buyer to cover the cost. This is why its always cheaper & easier if you can negotiate a compromise with the seller of a damaged item. Items dont rip or tear in transit,they only get dented or damaged. You also stated inner packaging wasnt even there,so that wouldnt dissapear in transit,lol. The fact that hes come up with a reasonably good refund fairly quickly means you are right,the seller knows they have screwed up. By the sounds of it your getting the refund & get to keep the item so i think personally,you may not have decent packaging for the item but you still have the item cheap. Do the deal,stay away from the seller & move on. Its not worth the long drawn out hassle thats involved with disputes,they can take months to resolve,its not worth the energy or stress if your getting a partial refund & get to keep the item.

If hes got to send it back then that stinks even more. If these things happen to me,which they have once or twice before i find it easier as well as cheaper to get a partial refund & keep the item. The fact i have to pay postage back to the seller & dont get what i paid in postage originally to get the item to me either inclines me more to try for partial refunds.

Yup, he wants it returned before he will give a refund.

I've told him that I want the full ?85 I paid or I'll take it to a case. It's not like I'm desperate for the money, so I don't mind if it goes to a case, as I'm pretty sure I'll win!
