I bought a clear cam cover from a member and wasnt happy with its condition it was yellow due to oil, scuffed from where the belt has rubbed at a part and cracked at the bolt mounting points also the rubber was missing. i told the member and he said he refund or reduce the price. so i sent it back but had problems getting to the post office for a while due to work being extra busy and having to work through lunch so it took me a few weeks to eventually get to the post office. i repackaged it due to the box it arrived in was just not upto being resent. now he received it and didnt tell me until i pm'd him a week or so later and got no reply for nearly a week. he then tells me in the pm that he wasnt willing to refund due to the marks on the cover, a crack across the middle (which wasnt there when i sent it) and yellowing. the reason i sent it back was because of this and i copied my pm which i had sent him before and basically told him he was having a laugh. now im £30 down for a cover that wasnt worth £10 because of its condition and i had made it clear i only wanted it if it was in very good nick. so basically iv been sold an item that wasnt as described and he wont refund me. as for the crack take it up with the royal mail as it hadnt left the original box until i repackaged it to resend it. he tryed to tell me that i had it fitted for a few weeks and removed it again to resend it which is bullshit as i bought a brand new cover the day after i received the damaged one and dane can verify this.
i still havent heard any reply from the member and this was on thursday or friday he sent me the pm. what is next action i should take as i paid via paypal. should i open a dispute or name and shame as this may happen to another member? he obviously doesnt want to refund me because he is being a tight arse and is trying to make excuses not to refund. i know it had been a few weeks to resend it i just physically couldnt get to the post office to send it.
help from someone would be appreciated.
