When someone purchases something from you that is free p&p and then buys another two items that are not, do they expect to get all three items free p&p? And where do I stand as a seller?

(Just remembering why I don't like eBay :rotfl:)

No they shouldn't expect that. Weigh the other two together and give them a postage quote for those two, adding the free postage item as a freebie. BUT ebay buyers are a law unto themselves so you never know what they expect:rolleyes:

If it isn't the paypal 'OK to send' address then you won't be covered against a chargeback.

Thanks Soolin and JesaRose,

Address is the UK one he wants the item sent to and buyer did pay for the extra postage on the other items but then I was very kind and refunded them the extra postage as it is not going to cost anymore to send the extra two items.

Total is nearing £300 and I am in a real flap trying to get the right things wrapped and addressed...let alone sorting out the couriers! How does mrscmr manage? :rotfl:

How's everyone else doing?

P.S. Have had several items sell for 5 times the amount I expected :eek:

I think I have probably sold under £60 worth, not too bad but not as much as I'd hoped, am just about to check if anything else sold.

Every bit helps though and I have quite a lot more to get listed this week, want to try and list as much as I can in the next few weeks before Xmas.

That Ebayer from the other day is sending the cardigan back, I always find it strange as the cardigan wasn't as she described it was when I sent it to her so I'm hoping she hasn't bought mine and is sending back a different one that is badly worn as what do I do then?

So far sold two items, and have 13 more ending very shortly... only two have bids. Still, 4/15 isn't bad! I'm hoping for at least one or two last minute bids.

thanks to you all, have got my act together and listed 14 items - all low value but would be happy with £30-40 taking me closer to my £300 by the 18 december - good luck this week to everybody, happy selling!

Hurray, have packed 11 items, have 12 items that have not been paid for yet and 1 that I need to work out a courier price. It has taken me hours! :rotfl:

Total is just a little over £300 but of course that is before fees. Even so it has given me the motivation that I need so will list a few more tomorrow evening.

One of the items I listed tonight has a bid - if anybody has their old toys in the attic get them out as I think the collectors are buying their own Xmas pressies (I haven't but my hubby has so they are being listed ) Think I might try Lego tomorrow and toy cars later in the week.

Good luck; the 18 December isn't that far away :eek:
P.S. Have you got anywhere else to keep your money? I never keep anything in Paypal if I don't have to.
