I`ve just bought a digital camera off Ebay?

Posted by admin on November 22nd, 2009 and filed under digital delivery | 7 Comments »

It said on the advert, including accessories, usb lead etc, but all that has been delivered, is the camera. There were no batteries included, which the advert stated there would be, but i am anticipating, maybe the rest of the stuff will come in tomorrow`s post, as the camera came by recorded delivery. I have been and bought a battery charger, and batteries for the camera, but looking again at the advert, it says non re chargeable batteries, AA……..will my rechargeable batteries be suitable? They are AA size.

Yes, in fact highly recommend rechargeable NIMH batteries over alkaline. Digital cameras are notorius for draining alkaline batteries. But as to the missing stuff, recommend that you contact the seller ASAP to correct the issue. If its not to your satisfaction, remember to bring it up with ebay, and at the same time remember to leave appropriate feedback on the seller.

    Yes, they’ll be fine. You need to contact the seller though to find out what’s happened to the rest of your bits.

    Rechargeable batteries are a slightly lower voltage than their alkaline equivalents and they might not work. However, you won’t damage the camera by trying – if it doesn’t like them, it simply won’t come on.

    EBAY got to love it. I never buy off ebay unless it is a respectable business selling something. What a pain. I would return everything.

    You need to contact the seller immediately and ask where the rest of the stuff is. If the response is not what you’re wanting to hear ask them for a refund for the purchases you’re about to make.

    The item really should come as 1 package and not separate unless stated.

    You are within your rights to send it back and get a refund as the item "wasn’t as described".
