sorry if this is the wrong place = mods please move
i bought something off ebay that does not work (car related) given mechanics time etc and other work i'm about £200 out of pocket
(not forgetting £258 original purchase price)
my solicitor says i've 100% win chance in claims court
but ebay refuse to give me sellers address where the court documents can be served!!!
how the fuck can i sue the guy???
edit - my apologies - i was really complaining about ebays lack of assistance!
This is not the right place. Pay £25 and join as VIP. There you will have access to the Legal section where Little John will give you proper advice from a lawyers perspective.
Alternatively, get a better solicitor because if your current chap can't even tell you what Ebay are bound to do, then he's not very good. I'm pretty sure if you raise a summons in court (based on a name), then they are legally bound to hand over his details.

and thanks but i don't need legal advice - i was just commenting on the lack of 'help' from Ebay
ref 'a better solicitor' - thanks but this practice has for over 50 yrs represented our family business and personal interests in an impeccable manner
Ebay will only release an address to the police - they will not even forward any documents to a third party - they want you to use Paypal 'protection' which is quite frankly poor and offers no 'compensation'!
things are furthermore complicated by the fact that i was referred to Ebay in Dublin which handle all these matters
i just found ebays intransigence appalling - but in this day age age unless you are completely 'off the grid' then you can be found - you appear on too many computer data bases that only the most minimal information is needed to find somebody:)
btw - don't really like the 'tone' of your reply - not very friendly!
thank you - been there already:)Quote:

but as i said in my previous reply if you know the right people/sources thats enough to find somebody:biggrin:
but a shame that ebay refuse to help?
just for your info:pQuote:

rather than being 'pretty sure' maybe you should be totally sure before offering advice?
If you have a read around this forum, most of us do our best to try and help, where ever we can. This sometimes means posting things we aren't 100% on, in case they come in useful. At least neo had admitted in his post he wasn't 100% so you knew exactly how to take his post.Quote:

Personally when I start on a forum, I normally don't post much for a couple of weeks to get a feel for the place and how things are done there.

was the item sent recorded delivery ?
there's usually a return address on the parcel
or
was there not an address attached to his payment details within ebay ?
i know not everybody leaves their address but if i'm spending a couple of hundred quid with somebody on ebay i'd want an address at least
how did you pay did you use a credit card try taking it up with them if you did you might get lucky
rather than being a tosser with next to no posts maybe you should be polite to established members - that way you may get more help.Quote:
