Ebay again......

[lane748]

Just bought MotoGP2 on Xbox- but what annoyed me was i paid £2,20 for P&P, it turns up this morning in a 2nd hand jiffy bag with a 75p stamp on it!! How annoying is that.
When i send stuff, I charge people exactly what it costs me to send it. I always make sure its packed well & neat too.

ask for your money back from the buyer and leave negative feedback.
if needed email him a photo of the jiffy bag he's probably hoping you won't say anything !!!!

I know its not much money, but its the principle & also, its about ethics. Why someone has to inflate the P&P to make an extra pnd or so is beyond me.

Do not wish to sound a bit of a killjoy but! if you add up the cost of going & buying the jiffy bag, stamp, cost of fuel etc etc, it sounds like a fair price to me. Always look at the P&P charges before you bid.

If you aren't happy with the P&P costs, don't bid.
Simple as that.
Once you have placed a bid, you have accepted the charges as detailed on the auction.
Caveat emptor......

Have to agree with the others - just because it's a 75p stamp it doesn't mean that the £2 charge wasn't justified!

As has already been said, you should check all the seller's conditions before bidding, and if you don't like them then don't bid.

I doubt he went out & bought this jiffy bag!! it had someone elses address underneath the label & was stapled/taped together.

I expect to be treated the same as i treat people. If I'd quoted someone £2,20 postage for something the size of a letter, I would have at least made the effort - its all in the presentation y'know

The other thing what annoyed me was, my cheque to him cleared on the 26th, yet he didnt post it till yesterday- after he'd told me he'd posted it several days earlier.
