Why do you want a refund?   What is wrong with the item?

 

Why do you think ebay should help you if you leave it longer than the 30 day cutoff time?

All the guarantees in the world do nothing if someone chooses to ignore the rules/process/time limits

 

 

 

There is a help tab at the top and bottom of every page to contact eBay

Hi, was this a service with a DNA sample kit for sale on eBay?

 

Is this a case of the results coming back too late or you don't trust them?

Hi, with all due respect I think all buyers on eBay should read the procedures and protocols.

 

https://www.ebay.com.au/help/buying/buy-now/buying-works?id=4002

 

4channel asked if you were unhappy with the timeliness of the result ? or with the item ?

 

If it is that the physical item has not been received you can open a case to resolve this depending how you paid fo it, check out the link

You say you got ripped off with a dna test. What do you mean exactly? Did the DNA test not arrive at all? Was it faulty or did it fail to work?

Or do you just feel you paid too much? (If this latter case, then that is not an ebay problem as the time for getting price quotes etc is before you buy.)

 

Just about every guarantee or warranty in the world has a time limit on it. Ebay is not different in that respect.

 

You can try paypal, provided you paid that way and you haven't left it for over 6 months. Also depends on what the problem is.

 

This is an aside, just in ase you come back to the boards. What type of dna test were you after and was it for medical or genealogical purposes.

The reason I ask is because ebay is probably not the ideal plce to purchase something like this. If you're after a very general dna tes for family history purposes, ancestry dna test kits are not much more than half the price of what you paid (when on special).

But whatever dna test you are after, I would say you are probably better to deal with the company directly.

Why have you not opened a claim in Paypal.  They give you 180 days.  Check all options before weriting it off.
