That's the marketplace, then. A sort of up-market "buy-it-now" eBay, but not buying from Amazon itself (as you might for some things). -- Roland Perry

You want to complain something is of poor quality before you've even seen it? Could I ask why you bought it, then? -- *The most wasted day of all is one in which we have not laughed.* Dave Plowman dave(a)davenoise.co.uk London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound.

You have 45 days from *payment*. Trolling here has to be of better quality for acceptance I am afraid, 'davenoise' indeed.

Could I ask why you bought it, then? Do keep up... if people buy a laptop battery to be shipped from China (because it's cheaper), they are taking a risk that it won't be a full-spec device. We then went on to discuss potential remedies. -- Roland Perry

Unlike you I have some experience of buying such things on Ebay and have never been disappointed. I assume you have some form of axe to grind - do you 'work' for PC World, or one of those other high quality UK suppliers hell bent on keeping prices high? However I'll give you some more clue. If the order hasn't arrived by the 45 day limit, start a dispute with PayPal within that limit. -- *What was the best thing before sliced bread?
