any suggestions for dealing with a mis delivered parcel by Evri?
I've just been hit with the 'your parcel has been delivered' issue with Evri, when I have no parcel. Proof of delivery GPS shows my road, photo of front door does not show my door, nor does it show any door from the entire road nor the local ones (I've just been out to check). The chat bot on Evri is useless, they will…

Collection on Ebay and buyer has used Paypal
Hi there, I have sold a large item on Ebay that is collection only and I specified cash only on the listing, as a safeguard against scammers. The buyer though apparently has used Paypal, he's apologised for being so hasty and not noticing that I've put cash only. I messaged him and asked to provide proof that he's paid by…

Vinted discussion forum closing
I’m sure most regular Vinted users have already seen the messages but Vinted are closing their discussion forum in February. I think that’s a shame as Vinted help is rarely helpful and with the scammers on there having a chat board to reach out to other members to check whether messages are genuine or not, or to warn about…

Postage label glitch on ebay
Seems to be a slight glitch on ebay with their postage labels today. Usually when I print a label it immediately shows as despatched, my last couple I did have printed the label but still show as waiting to be sent. I've double checked that I have definitely printed the correct labels by checking the postage label tab, and…

(Another) Ebay seller small claims court threat thread
So I've seen a number of threads where sellers have threatened buyers with small claims court proceedings following return issues. Generally, the advice is these are empty threats, ignore. However, this thread shows things can get messy:…

Buyer filed payment dispute with bank for authenticated bag - help
Any advice? I sold a Valentino bag which I had purchased the previous year from Ebay using their authentication service. I relisted the bag, however the purchaser has filed a dispute with their payment source saying the bag is counterfeit. Ebay said I have to wait 2-8 weeks for the bank to respond, but we all know in these…

Selling 30 items a year on Vinted
Hi I know it was covered by Martin on the show last week but I'm still really confused by the new rules for selling on Vinted. Not the £1000 part because I'm never going to make that much from it as most items I sell have been £1-£5 ish. It's the "30 items a year" bit that confuses and worries me. It's now nearly the end…

John Pye - doesn't match the seller's description
Hi all, I've been using John Pye for 5 years and always paid by Credit Card and never had an issue until now. I've always bought as was described or shown. I bid for an item and won what I believed was - AirPods Pro (2nd generation) with MagSafe Charging Case (USB-C) - looking at the pics. However, when I received them at…

Sending tubes by Royal Mail - postage cost
I had posted a few tubes a few years back (before Covid) - they were posted as small parcels. I have a large poster to send now and thought it would be the same so was expecting to pay £2.99 (online postage) but was surprised to see that it would now be £4.49! When did all that change? Looking at RM prices per their…

eBay issue
I have a problem and not sure if I am doing the right thing. Some opinions would be welcome. I sold an item, after the transaction, and before it sent it, the buyer sent me a message informing me of a different address to sent it to. When I came to send out all my items I printed the address from the ebay transaction page…

Can't print DPD label using Packlink
when I create a label with DPD using Packlink, the label is in the very top left hand corner of the page on the preview, and when I print it out, it cuts off the top and the left by a 3-4mm so the address isn't readable. the only options I have are to make it bigger, If I scale it up to fit printable area it still cuts off…

Best place to sell art prints
As per title where do you get the most success with selling art prints? It's outside my field of expertise. I know there's Ebay, Etsy, Artsy and more but it's always difficult to work out where the buyers are. I'll probably have a play with a few to see what works but thought I'd ask if anyone has any first or second hand…

I have been banned on Vinted (selling items I shouldn’t have been apparently… like Christmas decorations a while ago and most recently some unused postpartum items 😕 I’m not a scammer!). I made some purchases in the last few days… am I still going to receive my items?! Will the sellers be notified I am banned and then not…

Ebay purchase not covered by manufacturers guarantee, seller's listing claimed it was
I bought a 'New Other' Beko Fridge Freezer last November from Ebay, which has a fault. The sellers listing said it was brand new, and had full Beko warranty, which is why I bought it. But, I've just spoken to Beko (who consulted their head office) and they've told me that as it was manufactured in 2020 and sold by an ebay…

Selling a lot of very old books - worth it?
As part of a house clearance we have a lot of very old books. Most of them were bought as a box of 30 or so from auctions over the years. Some of theses are still unboxed. They are mostly 19th century and in variable condition. Mostly reference books and classic literature and encylocpedias. Is it worth our time to try and…

Parcel delivery companies
Does anyone else have problems with the parcel delivery companies? I'm pulling my hair out! UPS delivered a parcel for me and it was badly damaged, this parcel is a hard case designed to protect a valuable musical instrument. They say I didn't wrap it correctly - it was wrapped in cardboard - but my point is its not a…
