Item not as described--seller and buya.com not responding.
I purchased a Garmin nuvi 2589LMT. It doesn't—shows traffic data. Missing traffic receiver cable. In sellers listing stated “Complete – Includes all cords, cables, connectors, and attachments as included by factory”. Despite buya.com's supposed policy of 7-day returns from its sellers this listing stated "no returns" (therefore no way to initiate a return online). But it is significantly NOT as described and both the seller and buya.com are not responding in a timely or effective fashion. I now had to open a dispute through Paypal (I WILL get my money back!). I really, really should have paid attention to the mostly poor reviews of buya.com. Live & learn I guess...

Hi Jonas, We’re very sorry to hear about your experience—especially the missing cable and the lack of response at the time.
