Sold a tyre on eBay
Hi,
My partner sold a tyre on eBay for £15 - collection FOC or delivery for £10 within 15 miles.
Some guy bought it who was about 40 miles away - we where not very happy that he bid as we had stated the conditions of delivery on the auction.
So - she decided to sell anyway with the buyer paying £15 for postage.
When the buyer recieved the tyre he mail to say that there was a repair on the tyre wall.
In all honesty she did actually forget about the repair as the tyre is about 3 years old and had been siting in the garage. (BTW - the tyre was on a car for about a few weeks and has very little use).
When the repair was done, the garage told her her that the repair will be ok and road legal - if not - they would not have given her the tyre back (or would have replaced it).
The buyer now says he's had a visual inspection done and it's unsafe.
At the moment we've asked to see the inspection report.
Any idea's where we stand on this?
We coud of course do the right thing - get him to send it back (at his expense) and refund the cost of the tyre only. (It would cost about £14 to return it to us by ParcelFarce)...
