    If the seller was a business, you should be able to use consumer legislation to suggest that the goods were not fit for purpose and get a refund. However, if the seller was a member of the public, then there is probably nothing that you can do. It is always a risk buying used goods as you have found to your cost. Just be thankfull that it was only £30.

    Contacting PayPal about a refund will prove as useful as drilling a hole in your head.
