    And the fact she wrong "elite" twice.

    It won't let me lodge through ebay, because I paid with paypal. This was her response to the case:

    the only refund I will give is the $46.95 for handlebars, still not convinced that it hasn't happened after it left my premises. all the tyres are brand new!!

    I will need time to reseach for myself the cost of the h/bars though.
    She has closed the case, so I will need to escalate it to a claim. If I go for a full refund, it means that somebody has to drive for 1.5-2hrs to take it back, and face the nasty person. But if I go for just the handlebar price, then I could have gone for a better condition (no fading on canvas) normal model. This is the item number: 290565609032

    How long would you leave her to make contact again?

    There was NO typo, like you said she put "Elite" in the title and in the description. She also quoted the RRP of the Elite! The RRP of the non-Elite is $994, so she's obviously based her entire listing on the Elite model. Shame on her! She should just admit her fault!!

    There was no mention of missing parts or damage to the handle bar. Looking at the photos you can't pick up those problems...
