I spotted this eBay UK ad for a pair of wireless transmitter/receivers and would have been interested in bidding - except for what I think is a shockingly lazy attitude from the sellers. They are untested (too busy to test them!). Will not allow returns - so if they don't work it's tough luck. If you need any help before or after the auction end - see Beoworld.org or in other words, don't bother us, read up about it!
It finishes today so I'll cut and paste the text as the listing finishes soon:
This product is being sold by Bang & Olufsen Lincoln.
All the products that we sell on eBay have been part exchanged by customers, meaning that, because we don't know the history of the product, full functionality and reliability of the products can never be guaranteed. However, we will do our best to highlight any faults that we discover in the tests carried out before selling the product.
Product: Beolink Wireless 1
Condition: Used-both units have some marks and are untested.
Included: 2 x Power cables
For more details, including specifications and dimensions, please go to www.beoworld.org to find the relevant item.
Important notes BEFORE bidding.
Whilst we will do our best to provide the best help we can to insure a smooth auction, unfortunately, because eBay is only managed on a Saturday, it is not likely that we will be able to assist much whilst the auction is in progress. However if any help is needed before, or even after the transaction, then there are some truly helpful forums at www.beoworld.org.
Please accept our apologies for the non-committal nature in selling this item. We are amongst the busiest franchises of Bang & Olufsen in the UK and we cannot deal with the enquiries we get on these type of transactions. You can however be rest assured of a simple, friendly and straight forward transaction.
Sold as seen, no returns or refunds.
We request full payment via paypal, cash on collection, debit or credit card and collection within 7 days of the end listing. Failure to comply with this will result in the product being re-listed as we have been let down with non-collections and non-responders too many times to the disappointment of other keen bidders. Negative feedback will also be left to non-collectors.
I wouldn't bid with conditions like this on completely untested items. I can't believe how lazy and unprofessional this is.
Dave.
