@troublemaker2005: i did asked for a warranty card, but he said it is to be registered online. Bro, the phone next day auto reboot non stop. Have even 24hrs the phone got problem, confirm not my fault right. And if the seller has his side of the story, why he dun wan to reply my calls? Must be he guilty mah.

neber check the fone on the spot?

whatever phone even register online there will be a wrararnty card that states the phone is nder international warranty. if manufacturers don;t do that they will never gain consumer's trust. you should insis ask for the card to be given to you. on the card it will state that you need to register onlie with your COO and personal details. the cad need not be filled up you just need to retain it and quote your ref card number if reqired to. this is very importatnt esp of electornics second hand stuff you buy. its the only assurance you have aginst defects becaue you will never know how the passt owner handled it. no one will entertain buyers after sale 1 most of the time. so i suggest a lesson learned next time more asspensive tems just buy from trausted source or get from shops.

i do know of people who will pay for whatever service cos. these sellers are 'pro' sellers. occasionally they will sell cheap defective goods and when got problem will respond and pay for service charges. this to build up theiur reputation so that more second hand buyers will buy from them.

seeleres and buyers all got lots fo tactics one. so in the secoind hand market there are risk you have to accept. don;t believe just watch my favourite CD-pro2 video Wu Jian Dao.

add: assuming the set was good when the seller sold to you that may be thre reason why he won;t bother to reply you. like i wrote its one sided story we must hear 2 sides. you see in forum where all are srangers its unlike you with your group of friends you say what they will believe. that's why you have to bring to legal neutral party to slve, otherwise you just have to accept the fact and the risk possibility in the opne second hand market.

i also ever encpiunter before. sold stuff to a guy later he call me claim the defect irreversible. i asked him again if its irreversible how did i reversed it and sold to him? moreover when he test the unit on the spot i already saw how he handle the item and i also warned him many time when he testing not to do the way he operate and follow procedure cos its in the instruction manual and precautions he still act smart.

Hi all, i have recently bought a mobile phone from a seller through gumtree.sg.

In his ad, he states that there is warranty. Below is the ad.

http://singapore.gumtree.sg/c-Stuff-for-Sale-phones-telecoms-HTC-Desire-google-Android-2-2-4mths-old-W0QQAdIdZ242843443

However, when i send it in to HTC, they told me it was an export set and that there was no warranty.

How can i take legal actions against this person?

Go look for a lawyer to ask for legal advice. Some give free legal advice for 1st consultation so it's no harm going through the trouble to find out your odds and costs of winning the case.

It's cheaper to get the lawyer to craft a legal letter to the scammer to demand refund than to go through any small claims tribunal process.

But I haven't done this before, so I'm just suggesting it's something you can explore if you wished.

Have you reported the Ad on the gumtree.com.sg for fraud by clicking on the "Report Ad" button?

No harm in doing that.

troublemaker2005 SG

talk to lawyer need to make appointment, also if can get a free consultation please let us know so that we can all go.

but its not selling simple items and buying simple items. its electronics. so unless there some specific law stating so i gues you really have to be very technical about the defect.

sorry i used to work for electronic manufacturing firms so before customer claims we look at the nature of defects, see iof its user indued. also about the warrany i wonder whether TS got get it or not. it should be a norm. if TS ssays he never got but seller says he got give how? an if seller also take a photo of the opriginal copy how?

no alternative? realli is LL suck thumb?

what is LL suck thumb?? I still got some chupa chu lollipops, can give you suck

You get chopped nevermind, learn from it, everyone also get chopped once or more in their life, sometime you chop me, i chop you, but the most important is to learn from it and dun repeat it. I was chopped over a date where I had to pay for an expensive dinner, but once you learn the mistake, you dun repeat it, repeating it is totally stupid.

What you can do now is to do some good deeds, post in as many social media as possible to expose this guy bad ways of doing business and trading
