I have the item no from an ebay purchase made in April 2007. Is there a way
of getting the full details of the listing so I can see what was said about
warranty? (that's right it's broke!)

Have you tapped the auction number into the search box at the top. An
item I bought in April is still showing the full details

Assuming the item was bought new, then if it's a trade seller then its
possible
they may still be selling similar items now with a similar warranty. In any
case
if new, barring exclusions, the item should still be covered by the
manufacturers
warranty which you need to pursue through the retailer in any case. i.e you
return it
to him and he returns it to the manufacturer although you pay the initial
p&p to the seller. This is a legal requirement so they can't wriggle out
of it although they may try and palm you off with a working return as a
replacement.

However, if the seller was private then you're probably stuffed. Although
there's no harm in bluffing just in case.

The seller has lots of similar items on EBay though not a laptop charger
which I bought.

I take it you've checked the fuse. After 6 months use, it's probably
best just to get another one TBH - I guess you paid no more than about
£10-£15 for it

Try Googling for the item number. Even if eBay's original listing has
disappeared, Google's cached version may still be there.

We seem to need one about every 6 months.
