Right here goes:

I have noticed that some people sell Faulty mobile phones on ebay sometimes they sell them for Spares/Repairs also.

Well - i had a Nokia 5300 just sat in my draw. I tried to turn the mobile on but it wouldnt turn on.
Therefore - i put it on ebay but listed it as a Faulty mobile phone and explained the situation also.
Well some knob - msgs me thru ebay :

"if i win the auction and the phone doesn't work - i expect a refund yes?"

my reply to him:

"no refunds - item is brought as described etc - if in doubt plz do not bid on this"

His reply to that:

"im sure Trading Standards will be happy to know that you're selling faulty goods without option of refunds"

My reply:

"I have descibed the phone as faulty therefore i am not breaking ebay rules or regs - also there are no rules that i HAVE to offer refunds"

Well i wont go on and on but this guy really did my nut in the tosser.

What exactly have i done wrong guys? lol

dont worry about it mate. you have done nothing wrong. i knew a lad that used to sell locked mobiles on ebay and overseas bidders paid some serious cash for them as they work in another country for some reason

He sounds like a twat. You can sell faulty goods on ebay, as long as the item description states that it is a faulty item. He probably ain't reported you at all, ebay will do nothing anyway.
