Ebay buyer protection fee is confusing me
I want to sell an item for £99 including buyer fee with free delivery.

Ebay buying an item listed in Euros, paying in Euros?

Frustrating AliExpress returns procedure
I ordered a motorcycle seat from AliExpress for £95 which did not fit correctly and also had a defect in the finish. The seat was advertised as having ‘free returns’ on the listing.

Combining postage for 2 SD items bought 15 hours apart
Does Ebay combine postage for 2 SD items bought a couple of hours apart? How does it work? Do I have to do anything? What if the buyer buys them more than a day apart (and I haven't yet posted the first item). Buyer seems to think that I just have to refund her for one item's postage!
