EigerSA Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 1. He bought an item that was second hand (and stated as such by the seller), sight unseen and on receipt of the item he chose not to inspect it (which is a bit silly) and ensure that the item delivered was the same as the item he expected. 2. The buyer then sold the item on, the sale of which took some 3 weeks (which incidentally gave the buyer ample time to inspect the goods at his leisure). How do you prove that the damage wasn't made by the 3rd party or even the courier/postage service to the 3rd party? I'm really sorry but the buyer here is 100% at fault. Who really buys anything (especially 2nd hand stuff) without inspecting it? How could you even sell it on without checking it? I buy anything (especially bike related!)and I'm all over for hours! If I'm not mistaken the courts will test by means of "reasonable man", would another reasonable person in the same circumstance follow the same course... I very much doubt you got a case bud. As for the bit where the seller posted the wrong information, well mistakes happen (whether intentionally or not) and the buyer would've picked that up immediately he opened the parcel. Lessons here are simple, if you're buying anything 2nd hand (or even new for that matter), for goodness sake check your purchase! Good luck.

The_Break Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Are you a lawyer? Everything I've read here is unsubstantiated. Her word vs his. Because he sold them on, without checking, and timeously at that, there are too many variables. Perhaps the 4th buyer crashed on them, had them rebuilt, went back to the 3rd buyer to try and salvage some of his money? Who knows? And that's the point. She mentioned the wheels were second hand when she had them. Regardless of the OP's intentions for their use/resale, he should have prtected his investment by scrutinising the purchase, or, as I mentioned way back, been more careful in the first place.Read my post again. The point is not the damage but the incorrect model of wheels.
chris_w_65 Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Read my post again. The point is not the damage but the incorrect model of wheels. But does he have the dimple part in writing? If not then this makes no difference
Montblanc Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 If I receive anything from the hub, I check it out even if I get it from my best friend. More so when sending anything. Will make damm sure it is in 100% working order.
SURFER Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 [snip should man-up (woman-up) and accept responsibility for false advertising and repay the buyer. It comes down to honor at the end of the day, something not often seen. She would not have a leg to stand in a legal case and she would have more to loose in legal fees. I agree with you IF THERE WAS NO DAMAGE. The question is: Who damaged the wheel. In my opinion edge waited to long. If he did not inspected the wheels on delivery, his problem

The Drongo Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Are you Snip or Chicababe?Because you 'Chicababe' just replied to a post asking why no comment from 'Snip'? Just asking... Your spelling and language are very similar, you must be close.'Brother, if you are going to assume that 'snip' is 'chickababe' based on poor grammar and spelling, then I have a feeling that you and I and a very few others are the only real entities. Everyone else posting is 'snip' by other names!
