Honestly, I am getting so fed up with eBay atm. I have over 600 positive feedback, never had a negative until now.
I listed our old Bugaboo Bee for sale (cash on collection) and carefully listed all the faults (split wheels, gaffa tape on rain cover etc). Buyer came to collect, inspected it thoroughly, paid cash and left. Two hours later I get an email to say the chassis broke when they took ot to the park and they wanted £30 for a new one. The buggy was fine when they left but I said that I would give them a full refund if they brought everything back, thinking that I can at least sell all the extras separately to recoup some costs.
He then started saying how they had a three hour journey and it would cost them £15 in petrol to bring everything back and he just wanted the money for a new chassis. He has now left me negative feedback and escalated a case to eBay where he asked for a partial refund of £40. Luckily I had the option to tick a box saying I would give a full refund on return on items.
He's messaged me again to say he just wants £40 for the new chassis so I have said that he will need to escalate to eBay in that case as I will only offer a full refund on return of items.
Does anyone have an idea of how eBay would react to this? Also, if they find in my favour, can I have the negative feedback removed?
