NOT AS DESCRIBED order 2485846, PayPal found in favour of Buyer
Purchased in Good faith on EBay UK, and seeing seller HAS used stock US/UK image, implying version being sold is US/UK... So believed I'd receive item as illustrated and no mention of different version, I.e. Language or instructions being totally in German.
It was purchased as gift for 9 year old British child and friends.
On receipt and seeing GERMAN version, different to online we Raised -NOT AS DESCRIBED/RETURN seller avoided, but stipulated return costs were buyers responsibility!
Verbatim response: note purchased on Ebay-UK, paid in GBP and sent to UK address.

Seller, dictates their own returns policies that violate and breach ALL EU Long Distance Selling Regulations, including voiding 30 day returns, placing return of Item NOT AS DESCRIBED onus, on buyer including return postage?
Very unfair, rude and arrogant seller, AVOID AT ALL COSTS
