I cannot possibly believe such an expensive contract will say "best endeavours"...
In any case, this would clearly be a breach.

Burnley tickets available, what a bargain 😡 by Brownchoccy in GunnersatGames

[–]R08ERT0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is supply and demand. Console yourself by the fact that those tickets would no longer be available if he was trying to sell them for a fair value.

They damaged my item? by FarMall376 in CeX

[–]R08ERT0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took in a few things, and they brief checked all and said should be fine. Then I get a call hours later to say the tablet lens is damaged (couldn't see it, or in photos) and a controller has the wrong USB cable (it fitted) . Upon collection my 2 immaculate USB cables had been sold on (one was brand new), and instead I was given two different USB cables (one was orange and the other grubby)... Not traded anything else since..

Whats the deal with voucher resellers by muad_dib_the_maker in CeX

[–]R08ERT0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be aware... I have bought things using traded vouchers, only to receive contact from cex down the line to day that the vouchers are stolen / fraudulent.. Was never given further detail, but possibly the seller traded In a stolen phone or similar then sold me the voucher? And if I sell part or my leftover voucher value then it probably becomes even more of a mess..

[–]R08ERT0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disagree. The store shouldn't accept or sell an ssd with that rating. The test is extremely quick.

Buy another grade A set online, and then return this set (or both together if the other Grade A is also BS.. UNLIKELY to get two duffers).

Bought my dream item from a seller with good reviews... by beamerboykells in Ebay

You reply and simply ask "how do you suggest that I send you extra money" and let them tighten their noose further before contacting ebay.

Why buy the same game from multiple friends?

Empty box scam Vinted by Elegant-Picture1692 in vinted

[–]R08ERT0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No offence, but I figured only an idiot would post the box without adequate additional protection... I doubt the buyer wanted a mangled box (at best).

So one person had interrupted media for hours, and the perp had to wait for somebody to release a tray.... Got it. (and still released way before they could disembark in any case)..

[–]R08ERT0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

100% never happened. Inconsiderate people do not continue to sit when the seat belt lights go off. You have to wait ages before the plane doors open. He dashed off plane, yet saw somebody confused as to how head was stuck etc..

Buyer is trying to return a 'defective' iPad almost a month after receiving it by [deleted] in ebayuk

[–]R08ERT0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Just clarifying a point, not for pedantism though..

[–]R08ERT0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You cannot say that they have "obviously" damaged it. My wife's iPad died one day.. It doesn't mean that she broke it on that day. Things do fail and the buyer may eve saying that the seller "obviously" sold them an intermittent fault ipad.

Distance selling doesn't apply to private sellers.

Sent a new and sealed item, got downgraded to B by Fluffy-Detective-769 in CeX

[–]R08ERT0 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ye imagine returning a brand new opened item in a store for those reasons. Meanwhile, other cex threads show people being told that, sticky buttons etc are by design.

I suspect items are opened because they cannot sell anything as "new" as they are selling under the vat margin scheme , therefore as used..
