Ridiculous P+P request

  • Yes, I'm a private seller. I think I will do as you advise and put them all on as one bundle. I'll send special delivery or courier as it was a large bundle of ford mags that I got an INR for. That one sold for £23 too. It had my return address on it so may find its way back to me one day if the buyer isn't pulling a fast one.
  • As mentioned tell him to send you out the special packaging he so badly wants , as your are unable to make it out of wood as your are not able to and dont have the facilities to do this.

    Also tell him that whatever it costs him to send out the packaging is what it will cost you to send back
    It may sometimes seem like I can't spell, I can, I just can't type
  • Well, just had another car brochure buyer do an SNAD because they say there is a page missing, which there definitely wasn't as I checked this one thoroughly before sending. This is getting stupid. Have pulled the rest of them off ebay.

    Hmmmm a cynic would wonder if that was the page with a specific Ad the buyer wanted wouldn't they?
  • Oh, and I forgot to mention, I sent the item (in the OP). Wrapped the brochure in a plastic Tesco bag (waterproof) and sent it in a board backed envelope with an extra bit of really stiff cardboard. I'm awaiting my neg and low DSRs for crap packing!

    I just refunded them and told them to keep it. Urgh :(

    Shame there isn't a PDF or something online so you could see what was on that page, I'd be willing to bet it was a nice ad or some such like.
