Purchase receipt (receipt or invoice) | Questions and answers among users

Hello,recently I made some purchases on ebay from professional sellers (and therefore with VAT number) and in only one case with the shipment did I receive a fiscal receipt. All the other sellers did not provide me with either a receipt or an invoice, even though I had requested it in the order notes. I tried to contact them, one replied to me, another told me to download the ebay order summary and the last one said that he "would take care of it" (but as of today, still nothing).I would like to ask whether professional sellers are obliged to provide a LEGALLY VALID proof of purchase and, if so, how can I assert my rights?Among other things, it seems to me to be an unfair practice toward those who act legally and correctly pay VAT, since this way they have the possibility of offering more competitive prices unlike others.I am also considering filing a report with the Guardia di Finanza, but I would first like an opinion. Thank you all!
