I just purchased an iPod 80gb on ebay for £165! The seller was clearly surprised at how low the final price was (as was I) as he's just contacted me, informing me the (supposedly unopened) item is "faulty" and that I'll get a full refund. This sucks! He has several other 80Gb iPods for sale on there still, so it's clearly an issue with the price (the idiot should've set a reserve). I'm obviously not going to get the iPod now and my refund is apparently on its way. What can I do?
Negative feedback? What a waste of time. That's like simply giving him a "slap on the wrist" and telling him to not do it again. I thought auctions were legally binding? eBay should suspend his account for such activity, but what are the chances of that happening!?
Has anyone been in a similar situation before? How forceful are ebay? I've a feeling I'm wasting my time... My cancelling my account is clearly not going to shock ebay in action. Man, this is frustrating...
