Buyer refunded by ebay

3 replies

My daughter is waiting for some boots to be returned by a buyer who said they smelt musty,My daughter agreed to refund once the boots were returned and they were supposed to have been posted a few days ago,she has received a text to say the boots have been delivered,they have not, and the buyer has already opened a case against her,saying she hasnt received a refund
Also a message from ebay saying that they have refunded the buyer,can they do this? it seems the buyer has done this before knowing if the parcel has been delived,my daughter told the buyer that she would let her know when she received the boots back
It could be that the courier has got them in their posession and said they had delived but intend delivering them later today or even tomorrow
This has happened before, a text saying item delived,but the courier said they were running late so put them as delivered, but hadnt yet
I think ebay were wrong to refund the buyer without proof they were even posted
Anyone else had this problem? TIA

For a buyer to be refunded then there needs to be an attempt at delivery, not an actual delivery. Did the courier attempt to deliver when you weren’t home?

Were the boots sent back by Royal Mail? If so they should be at your local sorting office.

Thanks for your reply,i have been all day, and there would usually be a card left through the door if there was no one in
I am not sure to be honest, but surely if there had been an attempt they would leave a card as they usually do, my daughter is contacting ebay now, she has been at work all day, but i have been in all day
Also the buyer was a bit quick to open a case when my daughter promised she would let her know when they arrived, and were supposed to be signed for,
The buyer said she couldnt find the tracking link

My daughter has been in touch with ebay and it has turned out that the boots have gone back to the buyer, as the no of the house was missed off the parcel, and she didnt write the tracking no down, so ebay have refunded my daughter
So all is good
