Buyer sent me stamps instead of money for postage!

Honestly!! You should stick the stamps straight on the item and forget about any packaging!! I know some people would say this is fair enough but should I try this next time i order my shopping from a proper retailer? I think not.
Getting a bit fed up of mardy buyers who think cause its off ebay they should get stuff free . They dont seem to realise thats theres a person on the other end trying to make a living and has to pay for the item, postage and packaging in the first place.0 -
If you think it is okay for the buyer to send an alternative payment that was not listed, then I think it is fine for the seller to send completely different goods to those advertised in the auction.
I agree.
The buyer sent goods to the value of the item instead of money, so the seller should send goods to the value of the item back.
A cheque for £1.11 and 8 first class stamps should cover it.

I think it's a rather pointless argument. Send the goods and if u dont want this to happen again ensure you make this clear in your listing. There are quite a few people out there who mistakenly believe stamps are legal tender in the UK. I don't suppose it has anything to do with proving a point.0
