Buyer return time expired

[audistarelectronics]

Hi all, just an update to this one, Buyer requested a return and refund, and I accidently accepted, but as there is no reverse allowed on that one, I sent off a postal label and waited more than the required time, but buyer didn't bother to return the item. So, I opened a case with ebay, and lost it within half an hour. Ebay sent off a label, still no reply, and the dispute expires today.  Ebay says it will then reverse their action and the case will be no longer. Ok, I get to have my funds unfrozen, but after more than three weeks while this scumbag mucks me around. As the buyer, surely ebay can take some action against him after all the delays caused. If it was a seller at fault, they would be kicked in the head I'm sure.

Me too, as a bat, and even more so since I got new multifocals last week. Those things are a death trap. They didn't warn me about stairs. They didn't warn me about not having any peripheral vision (which nearly resulted in me hitting a child in the car). I'm taking them back tomorrow and telling them to shove them where the sun don't shine.

I've got about a mm at the bottom that I have to look down as hard as I can to see, that is for reading. If I want to read the computer screen, my face is looking at the ceiling, which has resulted in a kinked neck. I have about a mm at the top to see distance, so when driving, or watching TV, I have to have my chin on my chest. I'm not sure what the rest of the lenses are for because I can't see out of those. That's just blurry.

They told me I'd get used to them. I'll never get used to nearly hitting children in the car, or almost falling down stairs. I'll never get used to everything being blurry. They were supposed to help me see better, not kill people! They suck and a complete waste of money. I'm just glad my health fund covered most of it and I was only out of pocket $100, and not the full $748. I'd be pretty miffed then!

Tippy, they should not be like that.

I have multifocals & from the first moment I put them on, they were fine.

I don't believe in this 'having to get used to it."

The optometrist place I go to has always been tops. I once went to specsavers instead ( to save money) and similar to what is happening to you, had problems from the get go, felt dizzy wearing the things.

Went back to the usual place for contact lenses. He examined the glasses (very embarrassing) and said they were too strong and he wasn't happy to have me wear them so he replaced the lenses free of charge!

Your prescription isn't right, not if you're having those troubles. It should be seemless from reading/computer/driving.

I took them back yesterday and their answer was to put single lenses back in them. I asked how hard it could be to get the slit at the top and bottom bigger, so I saw less blurry in the middle. He said some people are "acopic", as in can't cope with them. I don't think it's a matter of not being able to cope with them, I just couldn't get a straight answer as to why there was a clear slit at the top and bottom and a big blurry void in the middle. I told him that looking straight on at him at that moment, he was a fuzzy furry critter. Also to read, I had to lift the left side up a shade so both eyes were seeing the same thing.

I asked if it was possible that my prescription got mixed up and he said not a chance. OK, then, why are they blurry then? Not just at the sides, but smack in the middle. I said I shouldn't have to drive with my chin on my chest! He said a new type of lens came out since mine were ordered, so I'm going to try them. If they don't work, I'll stick with my old ones, then go across the road to a different optometrist after new year. I stayed away from Specsavers, maybe I should have gone there!

Edit. Interestingly, when I told Mr Tippy I took them back he said he's going to take his back too because his old ones are much clearer. He only needs them for reading, but uses his old ones instead. It's the same optometrist that's been there for years. Maybe she's losing her marbles!
