Seller said item damaged and won't sell

So I bidded on fake grass and won at a pretty cheap price. I contacted the seller regarding pick up and they responded by saying the item is all wet and damaged. (BTW fake grass is for outdoor used and is suppose to get wet). Obviously the price is much cheaper than what they were expecting and they're using that as an excuse for not selling. What do I do now??

 

THanks.

There is nothing much you can do now.....you cannot force a seller to sell the item to you.

Just leave appropriate feedback and look for another seller.

Why would anybody want fake grass? If there's no THC in it, there's no point.

Lots of reasons.

 

My mother replaced her small backyard lawn with fake grass because she is 90 years old and didn't want to mow it or pay someone else to do it.

 

I had a small cat run made and it had to be bolted down on cold concrete. I want to add a piece of fake grass because I think it will dry faster than concrete after it rains, and I think it will be warmer in the sunshine as well.

Lots of reasons why you shouldn't have fake grass.

 

Chemicals leeching, weeds grow on top of it anyway and it can get hotter than concrete.

Just to name some.

It also gets mouldy under it when it's been wet a few times. It can't dry out.

Don't count me in your "everyone" reference.

There was no need for anyone but the OP to reply to davewil as his comment was not addressed to us.
