Bare with me. Please.I bought something from the internet, not realising it was coming from China and would take most of my life to arrive (3 months), anyway when it eventually did, it was the wrong thing. I messaged the company and asked for a refund saying I would return it but they sent me a series of bizarre emails n return, firstly saying I couldn't return it as it would just get lost and they didn't have returns label or insurance and other nonsense and then trying to negotiate a percentage refund. First they suggested 5 % refund, which I rejected then they kept going up gradually until I ended up saying I'd accept 50% just to end all the ridiculousness. So they said 'give us 7 days to refund' (stressing that they couldn't refund postage which I was fine with) but nothing happened. After 7 days I emailed them again. Nothing. Then I emailed again. THEN they said give us 3 days to refund. Still nothing. I eventually just thought I'd raise a paypal dispute as I'm getting nowhere. They have now contacted me to say they will refund me the 50% but I need to close the paypal dispute first. Am I being an idiot or will they just not bother refunding me at all again after I close the dispute? Shouldn't they refund me first and then I shut the dispute down or is that not how it works? I just don't trust them as been so much back and forth and wierdness. They have said they will refund immediately so why tell me I have yo wait 7 days initially? Once a dispute is closed you can't open it again so I am thinking they are being tricksy. Phew. Long post. You all deserve a gin. But what to do? I just want my money back.
