Hi is it possible to report a seller who has blatantly lied about an item they sold me.

 

Thanks

If the item you have received doesn't match the description, you don't report the seller - you use eBay's money back guarantee through the resolution centre: https://resolutioncentre.ebay.co.uk/

To qualify, you must have paid through eBay's checkout by credit or debit card, PayPal or PayPal credit, or Apple Pay or Google Pay. A case must be opened within 30 days after the actual (or latest estimated) delivery date, or within the seller's return window, if longer. The item must also have been delivered, or collected by you in person.

The seller is allowed 3 business days in which to respond. After that, the option will appear for you to escalate the case, if necessary, for eBay to step in and help. This option remains available for 21 days from the date the case was opened.

EBay will enable the seller to send you a prepaid return label (if the item location was stated to be in the UK). Once returned, eBay will process your refund.

If the seller doesn't reply or you're not happy with their response, escalate the case. Follow any instructions and time limits carefully, and don't agree to close the case until you have received your refund.
