Any question answered...

They are entitled to recover the faulty goods when they replace them, but since they have chosen not to bother in this case, it's up to you to dispose of them as you see fit.

Not bike related, Ebay shenanigans:

Wonder if anyone has dealt with a similar situation, any help/advice would be welcomed.

Sold a laptop on ebay for £250 on 3rd of December, posted it via Parcelforce, 48h service, ensuring it was carefully packaged, etc. Laptop was delivered to the buyer on the 6th of December.

The buyer has messaged me on the 11th of December demanding a return/refund as "the screen is damaged" to which i asked for some photo evidence to which i received no reply.

Then on the 12th, they opened a returns case against me claiming a damaged screen to which I have since replied via ebay returns page that the buyer should send me a picture or some proof of damage but they have not replied yet since.

Is there anything i can/should do before ebay steps in on the 20th, as I would rather not wait till they step in as they usually favour the buyer despite bogus claims.

I took out £200 cover via parcelforce on the shipping of the laptop to cover any damages during transit but I'm not convinced the laptop is actually damaged at all otherwise they would not have waited some 5 days after receiving it to message/alert me and secondly they would have already sent me proof/pictures of the damage.

I'm considering reporting them for making a false returns claim but not sure how well that would help the current case they opened against me.
Would calling up ebay prior to the 20th help?

Cheers.

I'd absolutely call them. Something is definitely up if the buyer cannot describe or photograph the damage they are seeing.

You want Pillow which is effectively the replacement for PIL. You still from PIL import.... I successfully installed it on Python 3.8 to answer your question the other day.

May the road rise with you etc.

Use conda (either anaconda or miniconda if you're in a hurry). You might have a better chance of getting the versions to match?

Create a new environment (where you can also specify which python version you want to use) and install pillow from conda-forge. All in the docs for conda.

Thanks both. Bonus points for the rise lyrics :)

Thank you, will contact them !

Anyone know where I can buy this?

Capri Sun?
Available at most corner shops.

I know.
I'm a cunt.

Hehe , thanks. Impressive you could make a positive id despite the poor camera skills

That's all very well, but I'm trying to figure out what that is you have there.
Some sort of spring-loaded ball joint?
Is it a tool?
Or other device for performing a specific task?

Does anyone have any recommendations for a tailor for a bespoke morning suit for my wedding? Looking to get something that has a similar silhouette to my grandfathers one from the 50’s but without the very baggy trousers. Should add that I’m Bath based, but would be willing to travel for somewhere decent.

Wooo, thanks!

There is a good tailor in Newent. Husband and wife business.

Shirley all that's needed here is a wingnut with the correct thread.
No?
Nowhere near as spendy.

Will also rep brown in town.

Trailer hitch, pretty beefy and niche bit of kit. Don’t think the price is excessive but 🤷‍♂️

Replacement bolt for a Thomson seat collar? I think it's an M5 bolt head and 18mm long

Found someone’s iPhone. What’s the best way of getting it back to them? It was a bit wet so I’m going to dry it out and see if it turns on but I assume it will be locked.

If the owner was clever, they might have set up some 'emergency contacts' that can be called from the phone without unlocking it. Beyond that, I'm afraid I can't help really...

I’ve just charged it and it’s turned on ok so I’m hoping someone phones it - probably my only option really I guess
