Returning Vinted parcel - since I have to pay is it best to use RM?
Hi all I purchased an expensive bag off Vinted. Typical seller says 'new with tags' yet the item had a lovely time in Madrid, bag full of tissues, a wine cork, receipts (hence I know it was madrid) and crumbs, not to mention damage to the lining. Obviously I was furious since it was a pressie for the wife. #rantover Since…

eBay - fragile item arrived very poorly packed, unable to test - could I return?
I bought a used car fuel injector for ~£100 from a business seller on eBay. The item arrived wrapped in a carrier bag (not a mailing bag), loose inside an oversize box. It came through my letter box with a "thud" of the tip hitting the floor. To be fair, it looks fine - but it's a precision piece of equipment that…

Paypal payment error, F& F
I'm trying to establish if a payment made through Paypal was made in error for Friends and Family as the seller of the item we wanted has not sent the item, or responded to questions as to where it is - on my partner's account the F&F option always comes up highlighted first which is hugely annoying as its very rare we'd…

Now I'm confused about ebay fees - does free not always mean free?
I'd understood that for the last few months private sellers have paid no ebay fees either for listing or as final value fees, unless you add the optional extras like reserve prices, subtitles etc. I've listed a few items recently, the latest one was snapped up at a Buy It Now price by someone in the USA (paying £15 for the…

Parcel Compare - How to contact them
I want to 'contact Parcel Compare regarding a package collected today by UPS. I have searched their site with no success; I just keep going in circles.

Yodel downsizing some shops
I have been in the fortunate position of having a choice of local shops that take parcels for all the main couriers. I could visit 2 shops and cover every single one offered by Vinted for instance.

Keyword spamming - alive and well, Ebay don't care
I'm interested in buying a classic Ford and have a search set that a recent seller triggered with their title "Ford Orion 1.6 ghia not RS turbo xr3 xr2 coswoth". If they spelled Cosworth properly they might have even wasted more people's time. Since the car for sale is not one of the models I'm looking for, I reported the…

Ebay hanging onto my money
I haven't sold on ebay for probably a year so when I sold and posted something this week I wasn't surprised that my funds were on hold until delivery. On reading on here about simple delivery I see my responsibility ends as soon as the item is scanned. So shouldn't my funds be available as soon as that happens ? It's not a…
