Getting the best from Global Shipping Programme

Only if they request the cancellation, as otherwise I think they can neg you?

Or just wait and if they haven't paid just lodge non payment with ebay to strike them.

I offer free p&p on all my listings. I accepted a lower than normal best offer on something that was going to the US via gap. And after I accepted the offer they want the free postage to .I keep telling them that it's for UK only. And that the postage cost is nothing to do with me. 2 days in and they haven't paid. So I have put in to cancel the order. I can feel a neg coming on if I block them will it stop a potential neg??

What option did you use to cancel as you need to be careful about picking up a defect. Doing a mutual means buyer can still leave feedback, however if you had opted to do the non paying bidder route and buyer didn't pay then they would be unable to leave feedback.

There aS an option to cancel order. But I still have awaiting payment .

It's been one of those weeks. This will be the third item to cancel. The other ones had excuses saying their kids got the buy bottom.

In my experience the 'expensive GSP postage' is down to the seller. On the listing the seller needs to accurately set the weight and dimensions of the parcel as that is what the GSP postage is estimated on. If the detail isn't on the listing GSP makes a guesstimate and a very generous one at that.

I use GSP and now that my listings are more accurate I am finding that I cannot beat the postage against my RM airmail prices.

Thanks - that's interesting. I never fill that info in, which is probably why my cartridge ended up costing the buyer £14 to get it to Italy!

I think I'll do one listing with the size/weight included and see how it turns out.

Unfortunately the way that the GSP is integrated into Ebay's system is still a bit buggy. If you are unlucky enough to have a buyer bid on and win two of your items - one listed with GSP and the other not - it's going to get messy (or at least it was for me)!
