Restricted item, kept by eBay
Hi . After contacting eBay to ask why an item I'd sold was not going to be delivered I've been sent the following message. They've given me no explanation as to why a new, unused motorbike carburettor is a restricted item! The message says that the buyer will have his money refunded. However eBay will NOT return the item…

eBay postage delivery confirmation
Not something I do regularly but once in a while I sell a low cost item and I'm sure for some time I've been sending using standard 2nd class postage purchased through eBay and in eBay a delivery confirmation gets recorded (obviously no tracking) Either I'm dreaming or this has stopped working recently?

(I have a full description…

Theft of eBay parcel from front porch
Ordered a vintage cook book from eBay. Courier dumped it in the porch, instead of putting it through the letterbox. Someone nicked it, despite the CCTV clearly visible and signposted. In future, I won't buy from eBay unless being sent by Royal Mail.

Are (barcoded) Large 1st and Large 2nd class stamps any use?
I have a significant number of barcoded 1st and 2nd class large letter stamps which I've 'effectively' bought at historic prices . The idea was these could be an inflation proof method of sending parcels. However, Royal Mail charge far more to send a parcel using these stamps than buy the postage via the internet, so the…

How to safely receive money selling on Facebook?
I'm selling something on Facebook that's for collection. Someone has messaged asking if they could pay by bank transfer now and collect tomorrow. They don't want to bring cash. Is there any way this could be a scam? Something about it feels dodgy.

Royal Mail - buying via Ebay or direct differs
I noticed recently if you purchase RM 24/48 small parcel postage through Ebay, it doesn't offer you free collection whereas buying direct on the RM website does (and also charges an extra 16p if you want Post Office drop off).

Time to report non-receipt of item
I’ve bought a fairly expensive item from a retailer. Currently they haven’t even marked it as despatched more than a week after purchase.

DPD/ASUS lost my item...
Bit of a long one, so buckle up. Back in June I bought an ASUS ROG Ally gaming handheld. It was £699. I bought it through ASUS via PayPal although it was supplied by a third party company. There is a common fault with the unit, so common in fact that ASUS had to issue a statement about it, and apply a firmware update to…

Vent - fallen foul of Vinted SNAD as buyer
I bought an item of clothing from Vinted that clearly stated the size. When I received the item, it was a size bigger than described. And it was too big. I raised a SNAD and the seller has requested a return. I'm really surprised that I - and not the seller who mis-described the item - have to pay for the return purchase.…
