Can I suggest that the thread be amended immediately to delete all names addresses and telephone numbers.

Definately!! I have bought and sold items internationally (UK included) without ever a problem. This has been the only one in years and it looks like the seller is not at fault, it was all the shipping company.

I've recently battled with USPS and am currently battling with Fedex over delivery problems so it's nice to know others are getting a result

The actual arrival of the goods is irrelevant in this case. They are not fit for purpose. It falls foul of a bunch of UK law, including the one you are all taking about, s.75 of the Consumer Credit Act.

If an item is purchased, suppose a TV and week one, the TV breaks when powered on, the Act provides protection for the buyer. ie OMGVTEC could sue the credit card company in addition to the supplier or instead of the supplier, ie, severally liable.

Problem, here is he is in Canada and I haven`t got a feckin clue how that bit will work!
