Lets say you buy a mixed bag of apparently junk jewellery from Ebay, an auction or a car boot sale. You pick out a couple of decent looking rings, take them to a jeweller and ask if he would like to buy them.
The jeweller offers you £500 for what appears to be a mans gold signet ring. The only question he asks is are you legally entitled to sell this property. You tell him yes. You accept the offer.
A few days later he contacts you via text to tell you that the ring is only heavily plated, not gold, and he wants his money back.
I would tell him that he made me an offer based on his professional opinion and I accepted. I did not misrepresent the goods in any way or guarantee that it was gold. So it’s a done deal. Then I would block him.
What would you do?
