Overcharged for postage
Comments

Well do you feel ripped off when stores charge you 6 quid for postage? or a bar charges you 5 quid for a vodka and coke that costs them .30p to make? - it's business and it's life - live with it.0

I can see both points on each side and without knowing more, its difficult to make an accurate comment. Ok, so you are aware of the postage charges before you bid, fair enough. But what about if you haven't got a clue about postal prices and you think the P+P is right. Items turn up and you've been overcharged over £10! Ok, I can see why some sellers might overcharge a couple of quid, but £11!?!
Come on folks, surely this is taking it a bit far! I would personally feel ripped off by this too.
Anyway OP, without anymore info on the auction itself (ie how how you final bid price was) its difficult to make any judgement on whether it's fee avoidance, a clueless seller or a blatant rip off merchant. (or something other!)"There are no pockets in a shroud..."0
