seller

Are there any other persons who have dealt with the seller. I made a claim under the warranty period in December 2013. At this time there has been no reponse apart from an automated email reply. I cannot locate the sellers address or other contact details. How is it that sellers can have a Top rated seller listing but are not required to give the details of their contacts. I have tried the office of fair trading but they are also unable to contact the seller. Why doe sEbay allow this to happen. Surely an registered ABN as a min for the sellers who for all intense and purpose are active sellers. In this buyers have an avenue to make legal contact with sellers.

No-one who reads the boards would deal with that seller...he is arguably the worst seller on ebay.

Have you pulled the seller's contact details from ebay?

still slow Lyndal, even with three fingers.................................

Jaques, that seller appears regularly on these forums, their warranties mean nothing and their feedback says it all.

You could try Consumer Affairs with this but unfortunately eBay will do nothing for you or to them........sigh.

...and NO you do not need an ABN to sell on eBay - buyer beware - And check feedback before you purchase, it is there for a reason

Thank you all for the comments. I realise that Ebay are only a conduit for sellers and buyers there should be some min requirement for contact details. I have received details for the company but not sure if this the contact for the ebay seller. Thanks anyway for the information.

Like all users buyer beware.

If the information came from ebay it would be the same company.

Re: seller

jaquesaus — Fri, 21 Mar 2014 12:52:27 GMT

The information came direct from another ebay user. Not ebay direct.

I also believe that warranty's are often not valid for items if sold on eBay.

Re: seller

If you go to any item in their store you can get all the details that you need for a Fair Trading claim. There is a full name and address and you can get the ACN from the ASIC site.

I use 6 and can do thirty wpm.

I learnt to touch type once. Went from 30wpm and 99% accuracy to 15wpm and 60% accuracy.

I decided sight typing was more productive.

Re: seller

lyndal1838 — Fri, 21 Mar 2014 12:50:43 GMT

Thirty wpm was the slowest I could do and still get my Diploma...after all this time I can't remember what I finally reached. I do remember one girl typing more than 100 wpm which was what most of us were doing in shorthand at that stage. Even the instructors were gobsmacked...and she was using a manual typewriter.

I am not the fastest typist but I am accurate....my forte was invoice typing and setting out work.

Re: seller

davewil1964 — Fri, 21 Mar 2014 13:01:16 GMT

Which is why I still sight type.

Doubling my speed and halving my accuracy is actually slower.

Unless the lights go oui. I don't have a red backlit keyboard like some we know.

Re: seller

padi*0409 — Fri, 21 Mar 2014 15:18:37 GMT

Hangs head in shame for not typing faster................

fmd I'm good on guitar and harp though - the voice ain't too bad either..............

Re: seller

jaquesaus — Fri, 21 Mar 2014 22:00:37 GMT

Why is the name of the seller dreamrideronline removed? Surely a discusion forum should be an open area.

Re: seller

lyndal1838 — Fri, 21 Mar 2014 22:32:52 GMT

You are not allowed to name and shame on the boards. We are supposed to report it to the Moderators so they can remove it.

I fully agree with you that these sellers should be open to scrutiny (which is why the thread was not reported hours before it was).

padi, slow typing is not your only problem, you seem to have a problem with a 'sticky' enter key, that is why you have such longggggggg posts!

Padi must have spilled Merlot on it.

Re: seller

padi*0409 — Sat, 22 Mar 2014 14:27:07 GMT

Lucky I wasn't drinking Merlot when I read slr's reponse to the feedback thread or the whole keyboard would be sticky Amber.....if you haven't seen, it check it out - it's an absolute classic.

Still chuckling hours later..........ribs hurt......sigh.....

(awaiting feedback, just how long should a buyer ha...)
