What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? texas
My husband purchased an IPHONE from a person in WV. He rcvd that phone and there were several features that did not work, especially the physical vibrate feature. The phone was listed as works great or something to that effect. It had an after market case put on and my husband believes the seller broke the phone, in many place, internally. The listing stated AS IS and when the seller was contacted by husband 1 day after rcvning the phone - he was told it's as is, if he wants other action, contact Ebay and file a complaint. My husband did this and followed up with EBAY also, and won the dispute. He sent the phone back and rcvd a full refund. The seller, since, has emailed threats and made at least one known threatening phone call, threatening to sue or take legal action-his brother is a cop, etc, calling my husband a theif. Since then, my husband took ANOTHER chance and pretty much was defrauded on EBAY, again, they sided with him. Needless to say, we are done with EBAY, period...but what I want to know is can this man take action against my husband? Does the law protect him or side with the seller? I am incredibly anxious to know what we can do to protect ourselves or just to find out 'can he sue?' Please help.We are in Texas. The phone was $300.
