As a buyer what puts you off a listing?

Am I missing something here?And you admit it! I;d take your extra P&P out of your listing you will eventually get reported or a buyer will rightfully refuse to pay it and neg you.
I agree the actual postage costs not in the appropriate section is annoying but the postage is stated. It's £2.99 and so below the £3.00 maximum limit for postage of items in this category.
Postage is stated as higher for overseas but that is permitted (and should be expected)"Now to trolling as a concept. .... Personally, I've always found it a little sad that people choose to spend such a large proportion of their lives in this way but they do, and we have to deal with it." - MSE Forum Manager 6th July 20100 -

Yes, very amusing they are as well :rotfl:
The search facility in particular is worthy of a mention as common searches return totally unrelated responses.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

How can I help you?
Well for a start when I ask about tracked services you can stop telling me about how to safely wrap my items and when I asked about a foreign address why did you feel the need to lecture me on potentially hazardous substances that cannot be sent overseas (it was a book for goodness sake!).I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Oh my gosh! Last time I used that (last week, actually) I really felt my blood pressure rising. I started shaking and shouting at my computer screen uncontrollably In the end I typed repeatedly - I NEED TO SPEAK TO A HUMAN BEING. I NEED TO SPEAK TO A HUMAN BEING. I NEED TO SPEAK TO A HUMAN BEING. (seriously!). It then gave me an email address and a phone number for the helpdesk. Funny thing, when I rang, the guy on the line turned out to be as clueless as the help-bot (and he had a speech impediment!) 0
