Bluetooth keyboard and mouse

Nice.

Well the toy fromw ebay didn't arrive. I'm glad it was only a few quid as getting the money back won't be easy I daresay. So anyway I bought the MS 8000 and my fears about it not working on this computer were groundless. It works just fine. An added bonus is that the bluetooth thingy does work with other things so I'm wondering if it will work with my phone for downloading photos. Will look into that some time. I like the keyboard but it's going to take a wee while to get used to where things are but everything is in a sensible place so it won't be hard. Mouse is great too. Better than the logitech in one regard. It's not so easy to hit the back button by mistake which used to drive me nuts!

Glad you're happy - though it confirms the disquiet I feel about eBay. Did you use Paypal?

Sebby · Mar 21, 2009, 15:11:09

I'm not sure, but I think PayPal only cover purchases over a certain amount, a bit like credit cards.

No wonder I don't feel comfortable about eBay.

I did use PayPal and they cover all amounts including postage now so I'm covered but will have to wait a while before claiming and then raise a dispute and then escalate it to a claim and on and on. I shall do it if the keyboard doesn't arrive in another week. If it does arrive, I'll keep it as a spare.

I've got the MS 6000 set and it is a very nice and confortable set to use for hours on end. I'm just trying to get work to pay the £50 or so for me to have one there as well!

Tell them I said you deserve it, Lance.

Ann · Mar 21, 2009, 18:37:31

Tell them you get RSI and need it. They'll be so scared of employment law that they'll get you one. I wouldn't mind a 6000 at work myself.

I think you're probably right, Ann!

You have to wait 7 days, paypal will do a refund no matter what the seller thinks.
