ASAP opinions needed.
Bought a frame off here and when it came it didn’t have the chris king headset included as pictured and mentioned.
First asked the seller where it was, response was sorry a mistake as he had copied and pasted the previous ad when he bought it.
I ask for funds so I can get a chris king headset for it. He replies with no please send it back.
As a compromise I instead suggest he pays me the money for the return postage (£21) as a gesture because of his mistake.
He now refuses and will only refund a cheaper postage option of £8-£10?!
I see no compromise in his opinion. This doesn’t take into account the inconvenience of having to repackage and having to wait around for parcelforce to collect.
I just feel this is hardly forum spirit, I have never had any issues like this before and can’t see why he won’t compromise.
I feel like if it was roles reversed I would have put money towards a chris king headset to avoid agro and keep my good reputation on here.
Seller has agreed to put this to the forum for opinions.
