Large / Please help! Lighted coaches.
January 28, 2015, 12:28:26 AM
I'm new and I feel apologetic to have to ask this as my first question:  I bought a lighted coach on ebay because it matches my Mountaineer train set.  The seller said it was C-7, so dummy me took his listing at face value and bid $38 on the car.

The car does not have a battery compartment. There's no power for the lights.  There's lights with a wire hanging down. The seller insists that's the normal way that Bachmann sells their passenger cars.  He says that the battery compartment is an option available on a few models, but most come with just the wire hanging down.  I called Bachmann and got a really nice guy in the customer service department who said that all the passenger cars are sold with battery compartments and what the seller is telling me is not correct.

How can I document that what Bachmann says is true, because the seller insists the Bachmann customer service person is not correct.  I need to know so I can have ebay help me with this.

The seller already lied about the shipping because he sent the car via USPS package services and told ebay it was priority mail as stated in his listing.  When I asked him about it he said the post office just puts whatever service on the packages depending on weight and he never knows what it is.  So I don't trust him at all.  Please help if you can and I'm sorry to have to ask!!
