This is a new one on me so I hope someone can help. I bought something fairly expensive on eBay this week and it arrived today and is clearly a fake. I've opened a return request which the seller has agreed, but they've refunded my PayPal via echeque which it says will take up to a week to clear. I've not had a returns label emailed to me yet. I feel a bit dodgy about the whole thing. The seller has good feedback but why would they initiate a refund before I even send the item back? Are they likely to cancel the payment/ it just bounce? I'm also worried that by even sending them the item back some other poor sod will get duped when they inevitably relist it. Do I wait for the refund to hit my account before I post? It says the returns label itself could take up to a week to be sent too.
