I haven't actually put a claim in yet (I'm filling in the form later) so I don't know what the figure is that the PO will cough up, I've copied the transaction details and it gives the book price as £4.40 but the refund to seller as £5.90, so I'll put the £5.90 in the box on the form as what I'm claiming but because they will want the details as proof they may take the book price of £4.40 as the amount of the claim.
This is unchartered water for me!

Interested to hear how it turns out AT. Fingers crossed.

Edit: Just to clarify, your talking about adding a minimum of £3 onto the postage costs (special delivery) for an extra £5 back if the item gets lost. It doesn't sound like a good deal to me.

Agreed. Not going to bother.

Off to the Post Office now :wave:

I came back from work today and found i have sold my first two books! I was very excited and it put me in a great mood. Now i am about £10 up.
After getting inspiration from this thread (Thanks Apprentice Tycoon!) I took £10 to the charity shops over the weekend, bought about 20 books and listed them yesterday. Two sold already!
Congrats to everyone else that has sold recently too!

I love a new convert - well done :j - as I see it everyone wins, you are £10 richer, the charity shops are £10 richer too plus you'll be back for more and your 2 buyers are happy with their finds

Sorry to be a nuisance but i have just skimmed through the whole thread and can't find what I am looking for.

I am sure someone posted a link where you could see what titles people are waiting for, but I'm either imagining it or I missed it, can someone help please?

Thank you

Hi Soo, this is probably the post you mean, around this time there were a few posts on the similar vein
