I wanted to get my sister a mirror crackle glass for Christmas. Next is her favourite but when I was looking they didn't have one in their current range.
I went on Ebay and found one brand new with tags and just what I was looking for. It was on for a buy it now price of £25. I offered £18 and it got almost immediately accepted. This did not included postage at £7.
After searching and paying I thought it appeared that I had paid too much, more than the original value of the item. I contacted the seller asking what the original price was but they said they didn't know.....
Today (over a week later) I have received the vase. I must admit it is beautiful. However, the price tag IS on it and it says £12!!!!!!! I must admit I was and still am rather cross!!!!
Is this right? Can someone do this? I feel like I have been totally ripped off. I could have gone to my Next At Home store down the road (who now have a crackle vase in stock ) and got one, with a receipt and guarantee for less.
What would you do?
