I bought a car radio and the thing lasted 5 minutes. It’s cost twice the purchase price to install it then they asked me to send photos of the wiring in the back (it was a wiring harness so no wiring) plus I’d have to pay the auto electrician to remove it (which he kindly did for free) after that a day later they said get another speaker (from where, I don’t have spare car speakers and wire it up to this and that (more auto Electrical work) just to see if it was really defective. Then they said post it all back and we will refund you. All good and well but I had reverse camera installed and microphone and wires run from rear of vehicle etc. Really just not economical feasible. All I wanted was the head unit replaced, that would be easy but they put all the troubleshooting onto me knowing it’s unlikely I’d have the expertise to do that. They were so passive aggressive and frustratingly difficult to deal with. They knew they had me and all they had to do was make the whole exercise extremely difficult and expensive that it wasn’t worth it but make it seem like they were trying to help. Lesson learnt, never buy electronics off eBay. If something is wrong you’re pretty much screwed
