As you might have read, I don't indulge in inflated postage costs, but I'm quite interested in the theory of this....
what constitutes "unreasonable"?
As to collection by buyer, this is an option you can choose for collection, so not choosing it means that you can rightfully say that postage is the only acceptable method of taking delivery.Happy chappy0 -

Hi, again there is a problem with this , the seller can refuse home collection, thus making you pay the Postage

Surely he is breaking a rule, avoiding ebay insertion fees.
Anybody wanna report him? Im not sure how to do it.
If you don't want it don't bid - why on earth do you want to report him?
Personally I would be more interested in the final price - am I getting something at a price (including postage, packaging and handling) that I am happy with or will I pass on that one?
Does it really matter to you personally that this person does not want to pay fees to ebay which will result in them seeking a higher price from buyers?
Isn't this the money saving website............?0 -

Here's the thing. If we all dodged eBays fees like this, there would be no eBay. Whilst we might all think they are a bunch of money grabbing :eek: (which they are), we all need their service.
So whilst this person dodging his fees, might seem like he is sticking it to the man, in truth the only people he is sticking it to, is us legitamate sellers who have to pay to keep eBay running.0 -
