    Ebay seller possible contract breach

    It just seemed odd to me to tell the OP that he must follow the DSR but not point out that they wouldn't have applied to the specific case he quoted in any case. (I don't mean just your post but others who mentioned the DSR's). I agree that the parcel should be the responsibility of the sender...

    Ebay seller possible contract breach

    Wow, I must have been asleep, when Armenia joined the EU. First off, the Distance Selling Regulations are an EU thing (aka 'a fabrication to make 'poor consumers' find it easier to scam honest businesses'). As Armenia is not in the EU then I doubt you have too much to worry about the Distance...

    Schedule of Dilapidations

    Had this happen a few years ago. Wrote back to the Landlord's solicitor saying that we believed that we had met all our obligations under the terms of our lease and that we assumed that if his client wished to pursue it further he would be following the principles of the Pre-Action Protocol...

    Distance Selling Act

    I agree it's a grey area but I think you need to bear in mind that in other parts of the DSR it specifically states that returns cannot be contingent on re-saleability. For example,

    Do NOT use Amazon warning

    Have to say that in my experience this is something that Amazon are remarkably bad at. I gave up bulk uploading data when after doing a test batch of 200 items it took me days to sort out all the incorrect matches. I have had this discussion regarding mis-descriptions with a lot of fairly high...

    EKM Powershop goes crazy!

    What we do or don't do or did do on EKM Powershop is now moot as Anthony decided to cancel our account on Saturday afternoon, seemingly because we had posted complaints about EKM's actions on Friday night, on the internet. We had asked for a 302 redirect to one of our other sites but instead...

    EKM Powershop goes crazy!

    I'm sure lots of people on here may be affected by this. After 5pm today we received an email from EKM informing us that our payment method would no longer be supported from 1pm on Tuesday. Our payment method is secure receipt of credit card details to be input into a PDQ machine. I would...

    Help With Seo Please

    Hidden text is an absolute no no for Google. I'd consider yourself lucky they haven't caught you already and deleted you from the SERPS. I'd say your number one priority is to remove it.

    Car Accident

    Arghh this brings back memories of an accident I had years ago. One I had, in the end, just to 'let go' because the amount of aggro it was causing me just wasn't worth it. I was stopped at a red light behind a lorry who was turning left. As the lights changed and he moved, he came too close to...

    Is this legal?

    What no-one in this thread seems to have pointed out is that employees also have a DUTY to co-operate with their employer regarding health and safety. It's not all a one way street. Make sure you have proof that you've done all you should, ie trained, instructed, provided equipment etc and...

    Franking Machine Suppliers - Recommendations please

    If you're only doing that much mail why not print directly from Royal Mail, ie in the price finder when it says 'buy now' or 'print now'? Failing that, we used Smart Stamp for a long time and you can set templates up fairly easily that just need a weight/class edit. If there are any printed...

    baby clothing help again lol

    Why baby clothes? The reason I ask is that it seems to me like you've hit on an idea which you now want to make 'fit'. Why not go back to the drawing board, find out about rents and leases, decide where you'd want/can afford a shop, then look a the local demographics and think 'what can I...

    Your page title is 'Home', better to make that something more related to your keywords.

    Google Shopping Results

    It's not strictly true that if you want to sell something on Google shopping that you have to own a shop or even a website. If you manually upload single products then in effect Google host the page. So, if I wanted to sell something personally I could use the form and input all the details...

    Invoices - printing.

    I don't see why you couldn't use a Word document, unless you are printing so many invoices that it would be too time consuming to insert the data, and even that can be done using a spreadsheet and a mail merge. I could, if I spent enough time on it, print something that looked exactly like the...
