to tell you never to buy form rarewaves

[deepandcrispandsevenfold]

a few weeks ago I ordered a long sleeved Cradle of Filth T shit in Large for ds. via play.com, seller was rarewaves
THEY SENT ME ....a extra large short sleeved avenged sevenfold T shirt.

now I get the Irony of that being my fave band, but it wasn't what I ordered, so I contacted them, they told me that it was Play. com's fault, that they didn't sell the t shirt I ordered!! and the A7X one should have been listed!!
(could almost believe that if the A7X had been a large)

anyways they said I had ot send the tshirt back, only then would they refund my money and postage.

so I did, over a week ago, first class, sadly not registered or recorded, but I have a receipt.
they say they still haven't got it....

now it is only £10.98 plus postage
but if they make a habit of this, that adds up.

so DON'T BUY FROM THEM

Have read on MN that play.com are terrible too..
Next time you want Cradle of Filth etc stuff, i recommend Grindstore - they're very good..
Hope you get your money back at some point, and Thanks for the tip!

thanks for the reply, I will check grindstore out.
I have a sneaky feeling I won't see my money again

Cradle of Filth!

What on earth is that?

a metal band.......
other than that I know nothing, but ds likes

Buggers!.. I'd keep hassling them, it might show up you never know.

Oops x posted, rarewaves = buggers.. i'm sure Cradle of Filth are lovely boys

I think you might be able to get CoF goodies off their FB page ... I'll second Grindstore as All Round Good Eggs!

Cradle of filth? Have you been to my house looking through my windows?

If you sent it back via royal mail and have a receipt then you can claim compensation from them (I believe there's a limit of £30 for items sent uninsured). :)

You can claim back from Royal mail if you have proof of postage as your coverd upto £38.
FWIW I buy a lot from Play.com and have only had a problem once when it was a seller on Play and not Play itself (if that makes sense)

Surely the seller is responsible for their own listings - like businesses on Ebay ?

you would have thought. tbh I think they were making excuses, they never had the item yet listed it, so bit of a con really.

they have just emailed me, checking the postage, of course they have the wrong amount. but hopefully this means I might see my money soon

Yay! a possible result

yay at last, after weeks of emails, and I at last mentioned trading Standards they say they have done refund

I love avenged
Besides the point I know!

I adore them, even have the Tattoo but am not an extra large!

I have at last got my refund!
took about 3 weeks.
so will never buy from them again.
I am still parking and time down
