Ebay Problem

[Norm]

The seller should refund you immediately. his claim for loss is with the PO, and it doesn't matter a bit if they have lost his package. He had a contract with you to supply goods, he has not done this.

Whilst I would indeed start the process immediately, I'd say that the danger is that, if the seller wants to play by the rules, then he doesn't need to recognise that the package has been lost until the Post Office have done so.

Came with 2 mounts ,a set of batteries and for the price is very good !

I use one with a 1 watt bike light on unlit roads and i can see fine ,you can focus the beam to suit you.

That's good to hear, thanks for the update.

A colleague and I order LOADS of stuff from Hong Kong sellers on e-bay and neither of us have ever had any issues other than later than normal arrivals (particularly with the snow over christmas). If they have a high number of feedback (over 500) and it's at least 99.x% positive then you're as safe as with someone in the UK with an average amount of feedback.
