Any idea how I can sell a credit note for a well know tile store in London?

[leeislee1]

It's for £3000

Sure. Spend it in-store on tile or adhesives (probably tiles would get you the most benefit) and then sell those on to somebody (or on FleeBay).

What was the reason you were given a credit note for?

Sometimes your statutory rights under trading law can determine if you would have been entitled to money instead.

I wouldn't get so deep mate. It could even be the shop trying to flog 3k's worth of gear on the forum for all we know.

Not assuming here......

It's the guinness... Gone to my head

 

[Gazebo]

I start the bidding at £0.99p

Hi, no I'm not a shop...My wife and I have just finished re-furbishing the whole house and bought tiles for bathroom and lounge at the beginning and then decided not to use tiles downstairs as we couldn't get the underfloor heating we wanted. We have now gone for wooden floors. The shop took the tiles back with a 20% re-stocking fee and gave me a credit note for £3,100 but have no idea what to do with it. I was hoping that someone from here was about to take on a large tiling project and offer me some money for the credit note. It can be split up also...

Your best bet in that case is either as mentioned earlier buy buying addys, grout etc and resell them or maybe contact local tilers and see if they will buy it for a discount. Or try eBay?

£5...........

Where they special order tiles???

Why the credit note and not a refund :yikes:

It may not be transferable and anyone on here could possibly get a trade discount from the retail credit note they have given you.
Statutory rights would allow you to a refund if they have already taken 20% off you.
They seem to want it all ways £600+ for nothing and more business.

weird situation to be in for sure, but i'd be straight down that tile shop and sticking that credit note right up their backs....
what shop and where was it.?

Totally agree with Timeless ,you should demand the money not a line of credit

 

[Muse2k8]

As soon as you left the shop they have no obligation to give you a cash refund. Tbh only if they were faulty could you have had cash. If their policy is they will charge you 20% to restock and give you the rest as credit then that is up to them.

 

[Mike]

i thought they'd have to give a cash refund unless the receipt has been lost? i'd check with trading standards

 

[Andy Allen]

it all depends on there t/c which should be on there receipt, most tile shops give a refund less 20% restocking, and will only apply if you return them within 30 days..
