OK, so I went and found the eBay ad, and you’ve definitely got reason to make a claim.

Under “Condition:”, it says “New: A brand-new, unused, unopened, undamaged item” - yet they would have had to have opened the box to remove the second elevator plate.

Don’t sweat on it Chucky. I will send a claim through. I can see the funny side though. Even funnier is that this is the first thing that I have bought off eBay and have been sucked in first crack.

Had another look on eBay, the ad actually says, “new in box 1 plate and fixings” under the heading “Burton Elevator Plates”. So whilst it looks like a set, the ad does actually say 1 plate. So my bad I guess.

Nah mate, not your bad, THEIR bad.

Sure, in one place it does say “1 plate”, but right above it in MUCH bigger/bolder type it says “plates” - so you had no idea which was wrong and which was right? As it says “plates” twice and only “1 plate” once, assuming that the “1 plate” comment was a typo is perfectly understandable - especially considering these are ALWAYS supposed to be sold in pairs.

If the seller is dodgy, they’ll argue the point - but if they’re cool, they’ll refund. If they’re dodgy, they deserve to cop it.

But box was opened so it shouldn’t have been listed as “new”.

Re-read chucky’s post!
