    Items not as described

    Summary: La discusión en torno al tema 'Items not as described' gira alrededor de los problemas que múltiples participantes están experimentando con los artículos recibidos que no se corresponden con sus descripciones originales. Participantes como countessalmirena, twyngwyn, y padi*0409 expresan sus descontentos, compartiendo experiencias y posiblemente buscando soluciones o consejos sobre cómo proceder con tales situaciones. La conversación refleja una preocupación común y la necesidad de aclaración o resolución sobre las discrepancias en productos adquiridos.

    I recently had an issue with a seller that calls to question the returning of something that is technically not as described.  If installed it would work fine but " Not as described".  It is not dangerous or in anyway a safety issue, it is a moral issue.  When returning such items and of course getting a full refund, we are returning the item to the seller who can then simply sell it to the next buyer who will install it and be none the wiser, but he/she/they have been cheated out of range.  I believe this type of item should go to an independent test facility where it can be determined if the seller is in the right or the buyer, but most of all whether it can go back on the shelf or be destroyed for not reaching a required standard.

    there was a YouTube clip about spotting Chinese fake batteries.  Personally, I wouldn't have them in my home.  I bought Panasonic Eneloop batteries made in Japan a few years ago, now I have noticed the current ones are made in China.

    The seller offered you a full refund, but you don't want to return the item, that is not your call and the seller is entitled to have their property returned prior to issuing a refund.

    Just to add, what do you think the photos you included in feedback prove.

    As the seller replied, questionable data from an unknown source.

    Buying a knock off lithium battery is about a big safety issue as you can get

     

    It is never going to be to Australian safety standard 

     

    Neither seller or buyer is ‘in the right’ both are guilty as each other

    If it's for the battery, I certainly wouldn't be buying a Lithium battery from a Chinese seller where it more than likely doesn't conform to Australian Standards.

     

    If you have a fire with it your insurance is null and void................

    That’s not within eBay’s purview.

     


    The next buyer will have the same remedy options as you have; return for full refund. But eBay cannot force a seller to destroy their own items.
