Avo rear coilover kit

[hendrix]

Sold some avo rear coilovers on ebay. The buyer is now saying that one is leaking. Does anyone know where I can get a service kit as I don't really wanna give the kid a full refund.
Cheers :thumb:

[General Baxter]

yeah its easy, its called sold as seen lol

[Pistol Pete]

How long ago did you sell them? Has he sent you pics of the leak?

Would AVO themselves sell kits? Or will the unit need replacing if they are sealed units??

[hendrix]

There was pics on ebay and they wern't leaking when I sold them afaik.
Sold them last week, no pics of the leak. Its only 51 quid but thats not the point. I'm brassic lol

£50 per shock refurb from Avo...

I agree with Baxter 'Sold as seen'. He could have easily fitted them, wound them right up and gone for a blast and killed them himself.

[Pistol Pete]

TBH i'd take the "sold as seen" approach. They were not leaking when you sold them, so its the buyers problem. Whats the worse he can do? The transaction has been completed, i.e.feedback left ect so its a done deal IMO.

[srs1]

you quoted
There are no visible leaks or issues with these shocks

so it is sold as seen and for the price of £52 the person has to except that was a realistic assessment.

[Pistol Pete]

lol for the price he paid i cant belive he is trying it on! Tough luck for him IMO.

good call on king of the hill but joss sticks?

[craig green]

Does Hendrix seem like the sort of company that offer a warranty? LOL

[L33 LEG]

if i was you i would find out where he could get them fixed and how much it would be to help him out, but wouldnt be giving him any money towards it.

[loggyboy]

apologise to seller, tell them they were sold as seen and theres a good latin phrase 'caveat emptor '

[chris gsi]

they might not be leaking at all its just he can not get them to fit so thought i will try and get the money back by saying they are leaking

[hendrix]

ive replied to him by saying that you can get seal kits for around £50 and offered half the cash to do it because I can't prove to him they weren't leaking even though they wasn't and he cant prove to me they are so I guess fairs fair.
He wants a full refund though
Just wondering if I can claim on my Royal Fail Parcels 48

[hendrix]

Ive emailed him back offering half the cash for a seal kit as I'm trying to be fair, he can't prove they are leaking and I can't prove they weren't leaking when I sent them even though I know they were fine.
He wants a refund and thinks I can't claim on Parcels 48 by Royal Mail as he has 'reeseaved' the goods.
Can I claim on that tarriff??

[hendrix]

meh lol

[General Baxter]

you got photos yet lol

he might not want them, if there not leaking give him my addy, ill hjave them lol

[Ste L]

ask for proof of leakage....

or tell him ot GTF

[hendrix]

Problem is though ste, he could have buggered them himself

[Ste L]

just tell him to GTF then, as they was fine when you sold them

Return policy


The seller will not accept returns for this item
you covered your back

[hendrix]

thanks nick :thumb:

[hendrix]

ffs he still wants a refund lol

[BIGS]

well if you feel bad tell him if he pays for the postage to send them back to you, you will give a refund as you havent got to refund any postage even if he was intited (sp) for a refund

but if it was me id say keep filling them up then what do you want for £50

[hendrix]

I offered to pay for half towards a seal kit as a gesture of goodwill but he's bein a scrote lol

[BIGS]

well how did he pay, did he pay by paypal? if not tell him to do one

[hendrix]

by cheque

[areofall]

by cheque

If he's paid with cheque, end off, if it was paypal he could get a full refund and paypal would take the money off you, you've been fair offering him 1/2 of the seal price.

[BIGS]

he hasnt got anything to fall back on then, just say no and thats it. he got them cheep enough. i would of paid that just so i can put them on the back while i turret the rears!

Stop being so nice lol

[General Baxter]

[hendrix]

[Spudly]

Tell him he has more chance of going down on the the queen than getting a refund if he is being a c0ck over it mate:thumb:
