Seller ghosting on 1-Year Store Warranty card (Purchased Aug 2025, past 30 days)
Summary: cmoss420 is seeking advice on how to proceed with a seller who is not responding regarding a 1-year warranty claim for a faulty Google Pixel 9 Pro purchased in August 2025. The standard return options on eBay are no longer available as the 30-day window has passed. They have reached out for repair or replacement under the written warranty but have not received a reply and are asking for suggestions on how to get the seller to honor their warranty.
Hi Mentors,
I need some advice on how to handle a seller who included a physical warranty card but is not responding.
The Details:
Item: Google Pixel 9 Pro 512GB
Purchase Date: August 14, 2025 (Delivered Aug 19, 2025)
Issue: The phone recently suffered an internal power failure (completely dead/won't charge, no physical damage).
Warranty: Inside the box, the seller (
LeArbre Store Inc) provided a physical 1-Year Seller Warranty Card instructing buyers to contact their warranty department under the "Other" topic if issues arise.
Where I'm Stuck: Because the purchase was made last August, the 30-Day eBay Money Back Guarantee return window closed on September 18, 2025. The standard return/refund buttons are gone. I reached out directly to the seller via eBay messages over 48 hours ago asking to initiate a repair/replacement under their written 1-year warranty, but I haven't received a reply.
Since eBay's 30-day money-back window has passed, what are my options to get the seller to honor their written warranty when they are ignoring messages?
Thanks for any insight or suggestions!

If the seller does not respond to you there is nothing further you can do.
