Daughter got scammed this week. She purchased a 'used' Nintendo Switch via Vinted and what turned up yesterday was a 'random' dog collar. She reported it, and vinted have banned the user and are refunding her montey. She's sold a few things herself on the platform.

She really want's a Switch for Xmas, so I've managed to get a new one via Asda for a reasonable discount. She'll use any Xmas money to get the games !

Thats bad nice to see Vinted sorted it we've used it a lot without issues. Did they sort it quickly without any issues ?
Shame you've come off a bit lighter though :laugh:
 
We have just come back from the REME Museum at RAF Lyneham. We had a nice time listening to the guide talking about the museum and then wandering round looking at the exhibits. There were more exhibits than I imagined . I was very interested in looking at the 2 tanks especially the Churchill . It was interesting to see that it had sprockets front and rear , most tanks have an idler or plain roller at one end . I was curious in seeing how they tightened the track , a bit like a bike chain but on a large scale! :ohmy: Removing links would also be a tad more difficult ! :whistle:

She emailed, and within the hour they agreed to refund her, even though the auto response said upto 48 hours - I'm a lot lighter, hey ho.

My son was scammed by a buyer on ebay recently for a car part. Listed it as part only, and not with wires - clearly stated. Buyer then raises dispute part had no wires (it was clear in the advert). He refunded but the buyer never sent to part back - ebay refused to help, and all my son could do is post a negative review. He's now only cash on collection !

Op completed. Didn't take very long at all and so far, nowhere near as bad as having the tooth out in the first place. Prescription collected for antibiotics, painkillers and mouthwash.

Going to make the most of the remaining daylight while I'm here and explore a bit.

I walked past an apartment block called Waverley Court so it seems Sir Walter Scott's fame had made it this far!

I'm parked beside a MKIII Golf which seems to be about 95% body filler and Hammerite.

@Reynard Felix AGAIL is £31-£32 on Amazon and Paws at the moment for 120 packs. Just ordered 3 boxes (360 packs) from Paws :crazy:

I'll have a looksy. I think it's still £13 for a box of 40 in Tesco right now.

Problem with the jumbo boxes, is that with only two cats, they get bored of it very quickly. And a box of 12 pouches lasts a week as the girls have dry down all the time.
