Default Ebay seller offerings....

Dear all,
There is a seller 80wolfhall5 on ebay which has a large amount of rare Glengarry badges and other Victorian pieces which I believe are very doubtful.
Please advise and thanks,

CB

Hi CB,
Of all the regiments i collect too, not one of them a genuine item.
Of note, is the fact he doesn't accept returns, not one i would use, just incase the badge differed from the photo.
Regards Mark

Ah, I suspected as much. Looks like he has a supply coming in as new listings have have been appearing regularly. Frightening prices as well which so far seem to be scaring people away as I have seen most of them unsold over the months.

this is not true, certainly in australia. there is a drop down box which says
Returns not Accepted
but i'm sure Federal laws don't allow for this

You can state no returns but Ebay is heavily weighted in the buyers favour so if it is damaged,not as description, fake etc...Ebay will refund you if you get no joy with the seller, especially if you do the live chat option as its instant response from them
