    Paperwork provided. Wondering if while the claim is open I can chargeback the seller for postage back, the service of the ref 75 after possible damage, and the appraisal of the Resolution - bit unfair that I'm out of pocket.

    What ever you buy, whether it is new or s/hand, needs to come from a company providing good backup. One of the main criteria I use when buying in product is the quality of the company manufacturing the products or the ability of the distributor to back up and service the products, long term. There are many companies I wouldn't touch with a barge pole and many distributors who are nothing but a man with a credit card. If things go wrong, there is no real service.

    i would seek that money back from paypal, add that cost to the invoice. seems they're looking for the cheapest option, i.e if it's cheaper to have it fixed rather than re-imburse both partie's. which i suppose is fair enough.
    it will get resolved but that doesnt change the stress and ball-ache of it all.
    all the best
    Mike.

    PayPal has found in my favour, but will only release the money when the seller confirms the item has been received in the condition it was sent out in. Considering he's claiming I've damaged it I don't see him doing that, not to mention he's a dickhead who will make it as difficult as possible just for the fun of it.

    My intention is to video it working and being packed up in front of 12 B2 adult students (Inc. doctor, police, soldier, teacher etc) who will sign that they witnessed it functioning and boxed up for pick up.

    I have to pay for shipping.

    I haven't been following this thread recently, so apologies if I've missed something, but is said dickhead the guy who had advertised this player for sale on pfm? If so, then he needs named and shamed, not only here, but over there, too [indeed, steps will be taken to make that happen]!

    If it's someone else you're referring to, then fair enough. In any case, I hope that you get the matter resolved to your satisfaction, ASAP

    Marco.

    No it hasn't been repaired. It went to an engineer as requested by PayPal for a report who agreed there was an imbalance. Hence their decision in my favour.

    PayPal seems to have put everything on me to be prove the fault, including paying the 90£ for shipping it back.

    The reason I say the guy is a dickhead is because of his personal attack on me. He's not going to make it easy - so I'll get witnesses (benefit of a owning a school) to it working and being packed. In total im around 220£ out of pocket but that doesn't seem to count.

    I'll never trust a seller who refuses returns again, no matter the 'bargain'.
