Like a lot of people, I use Ebay to buy a few bits, and occasionally sell some stuff too....recently, a spare laptop charger, tested and working. So I list it, and agree a generous price about £10 with free P&P with the buyer. Let's call him "****". **** pays promptly and leaves a message saying don't send it using a certain carrier because they just dump stuff in his street. I reply saying I'll use a different carrier.
I then get another message asking will I send it sooner rather than later. I've listed it as free P&P and reply saying as it happens I've sent it earlier, 2nd class and give **** the tracking number.
Three days later, **** sends me a message at 930am.....he's received the charger, but says it doesn't work. And he's sent me three pics of some multimeter type device connected to the charger.
A few mins later, **** sends another message saying he's sure it's damaged so he's returning it and is miffed because he needed it badly.
About 5pm, just as I'm about to send a reply, I get another message from ****, "All ok the cable at the end out of the charger was loose so pushed it back and all is ok".
So basically, **** unpacked it and did not attach the leads correctly.
