Bought a skirt advertised as new with tags. When it arrived it didn't look worn but had a distinctive smell of washing detergent and was still slightly damp. One button was missing and the label with size and care instructions had been cut off. The tags that came on it were simply tied to it so could be put in and removed any time. I contacted the seller to say I wasn't happy and wanted a full refund. This was his answer:
I can assure you the item is new and has most definately NOT been washed. We apologise if the tags are not on the skirt sometimes these come off. We have many other of this skirt so please return and we will despatch another one complete with tags by return. many thanks
When I said the label had not come off, it had been cut off, he replied this:
Well if it has then the manufacturer must of done it, because we certainly have not!! Also the label is cut off quite correct this is to prevent returns of these items to the high street retialers, the tags I am talking about are the tags which state the size of the item which are normally attached by a plastic tag. As we have more of these items we can as I have stated offer an exchange like for like. Even leaving the washing label in! If you need any reassurance then just look at my feedback. Many thanks
What should I do? I feel like keeping the skirt and leaving a bad report because I'm just not happy with the reply and it would be the easier thing to do (the skirt was quite cheap). Or is this not fair?
