    There is no way for a seller to "get away" with sending the buyer an item that is not as described as it was on the listing page. Ebay has a 30 day Money Back Guarantee. Buyers can file a Return Request if they receive an item other that what they ordered or "dirty" or "even useless".

    • Go to your Purchase History, find the item, and under “More actions” click on “Return item” and select the reason for the return.
    • The seller will have 3 days to either accept the return and provide a prepaid return shipping label OR refund without having you return the item.
    • If they don't do either, you can go back to your Return Request details 4 days after you filed the Request and ask Ebay to step in.
