Not really sure what to do. Won a boys M&S suit on ebay a couple of weeks ago. Got it for a reasonable price (much less than I had been willing to pay), took ages for it to be dispatched, only when I emailed to chase it 8 days after winning and explained I needed it for DS's confirmation this Wednesday. So, it finally arrived on Saturday afternoon and it isn't a suit at all. Yes, it's a jacket and pair of trousers with a pinstripe but they DON'T BLOODY MATCH!!!!!!!

Due to work commitments I've had to order one from M&S with next day delivery. So, is it unreasonable to ask for a refund? It isn't what they said? But a bit of me thinks it just isn't worth the agro.

WWYD?

You have two choices:

  1. Email seller and tell them it is not right and you want to return for refund
  1. Open a not as described case, eBay then makes you return item, you get a refund.

yes ask for a refund - send back tracked with proof of delivery.

absolutely, the seller should have said it was a different jacket and trousers plus taking so long for a delivery is bad.

Will I have to pay for the postage back? It's hardly worth it if so.

Have e-mailed them and asked how they propose we resolve.

send MyHermes or Collect+ instead - cheaper than RM for under 1kg. But the seller should refund you that amount too - sadly you can't enforce that, but can leave appropriate feedback and stars

If you open a case and say you don't want the expense of a return ebay may give you a pre-paid label or give a no fault refund
