Parcel compare - uncontactabkw and taking money from my credit card
I booked a standard courier delivery of a large parcel. At the time of booking I correctly entered the height and weight of the parcel and that information was correctly shown on my invoice. A month later they have taken a further £52 for a large parcel subsidy. No warning, no further explanation! I have been unable to…

Someone walk me through the Ebay return process
Having a bit of a 'dispute' with ebay now and can't get any sense out of their CS. So can someone tell me if I've done something wrong or if Ebay have cocked up and are in denial mode? Couple of weeks back I sold something which arrived faulty. No big deal. I'll refund it and get it returned so I can check it - might be…

Ebay buyer PMs to offer on item not on'best offer'
A rookie question ... I can't find an answer on ebay. I'm a private seller and have a item currently up that isn't listed as 'best offer'. A buyer has PM'd me to ask if I'd take an offer on an item. There are 25 watchers, and no current bids, on it. Can a seller accept an offer on an item that's not been listed as 'best…

How long does a return stay open on Ebay?
So sold an item recently and it arrived damaged - no worries stuff happens and I can hopefully make a claim for it but we will see. Made an offer to the buyer to basically keep the item for half price. Never heard back. Think that was about 10 days ago or so. How long will the return stay open and what's the next steps?…

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned but I usually send Tracked 48 online, print the label myself and take it to the Post Office. However today as usual it offered free collection but a charge of an extra 16p if I took it myself. I don't remember seeing this before.

Advice understanding an eBay message?
Context: Someone is selling something I need in a bundle with two other related items. I messaged just on the off-chance asking if they might be willing to sell the thing I need separately, obviously via eBay still, I wouldn't dream of attempting to buy outside of eBay. All the items are for a very specific niche that I…

Parcel monkey
Hi I returned an AC unit to Amazon. As the item was oversized, amazon asked me to arrange for return which I did via parcel monkey. The item for whatever reason has been returned to me and the packaging is damaged to the point that the item can't be lifted again as the bottom has come out. The AC is fine. I raised a claim…

Ebay - Get text by phone to continue but the catch is you are "agreeing to" getting BS messages and
I tried to login to my acount and did not bother and thought I'd do it some other day. Today I thought I'd get it done with but then noted the bs message. Why should I receive their crap with no option to opt-out. My accout is 15 years old if not older and have verified several times before years ago. Any ideas please?…

Ebay: Heavy dresser collection only
I sold a heavy dresser on Ebay- collection only, but the buyer seems to be completely dippy, she thinks that she and her 17 year old son can lift it out.

UPS
Hi - trying to check on this ….. UPS left a parcel from a retailer in a green bin. The photo doesn’t show anything - not our house, our the bin just a box on top of cardboard. We didn’t authorise it to be left in a dustbin as it’s not a secure place for us. We were also on holiday. We had however asked them to leave it…

Have to send back a larger parcel but finding a delivery company much more tricky to find for size
EDIT: Have ordered with evri via parcel2go. I paid £40 for a camping bed. Tried it and don't like it. Want to return but the prices are huge which will come out of pocket for a larger parcel vs a medium. I see like £17 for postage with dhl or dpd. The weight is only 5.4kg yet the length limits are 60cm for medium so it…
