GHD - Rip Off
Hi All
Having read all of te threads on here I have the following to add.
I too listed 1 pair of GHD's on eBay. They were removed and I contacted Jemella via email like eBay said.
They sent a reply stating they thought they were counterfeit and I needed to open the seal and give them the serial number. They were NEW and SEALED and I didn't really want to open them so left it.
The email from Jemella read that if i tried to relist this item on eBay then I could be suspended and legal action could be taken..
I did the responsible thing and left it. No relisting at all.
2 Months later I get the identical letter from WM demanding £350 to cover legal costs. Now don't get me wrong, I am the first to admit a fault but £350 !! for a letter that obviously is identical but with a different name and address for all 1200 people that WM say they have outstanding????? Where do I sign.. I will quite happily send this letter out for yoy GHD for a mear £250 !!!
Now I have not sold any on ebay nor anywhere else and still have the irons that i purchased. I have said to WM that I am happy to send the iron in for them to dispose of (although my solicitor said that they had no right to ask for them as if it is infact a copy then it is not illegal to buy a copy just to sell it)
So how can I be expected to pay out a rediculous amout for a simple letter.
My solictior also advised me that I should sign the Undertakings letter but cross through what I did not agree on.
Also they said that they could not request the £350 before going to court to get them as these are Pre Issue Costs
His advise is to send the Undertakings back with the sections crossed through that I did not agree too.
Has anyone else had similar advice??
I will not be paying £350 for listing 1 item on ebay ONCE. I contact eBay and they really don't give a monkeys. Not interested 1 little bit.
In fact it would suprise me if they allow this item to be listed and are on some sort of commission !!!
