Bought some 3/8" socket extention bars
Used the 3" one and on 1st use the end snapped off!
Just banged in claim to paypal and the seller is saying that they will refund once item returned for inspection. If found the item has been miss used no refunds will be offerd.
So i will pay to send the fucking thing back and then get screwed over.
Need a plan guys!

Did it snap off, or shear? If it snapped then you probably were using it incorrectly.

It'll take much more than £5.90's worth of time to return that instead of just buying half decent stuff.

You're going to go through a lot of shenanigans with paypal/ebay/seller just for £5.90? I'd just fuck it off and buy a different one

You bought cheap shit and it snapped..
Dont buy cheap shit when it comes to tools! Only ever buy tools with a life time warranty because you could do your self some serious damage using shit.

He will only say it was your fault and not send you one, so thats postage wasted.
Shit in a box. Send him that. It'll cost a bit more in postage, but at least it'll make you feel better about the situation
