All these reports & it's still showing more than 24 hrs later.
Nice to see Ebay are concerned. Thought perhaps as it was fee avoidance they may pay attention. Was wrong.

Well I think that it is wrong so I have reported the item

I see the reporting system has got better with a discription box

Reporting items over weekends is pointless, as ebay T&S are not available to deal with them. That's why most scams start on fridays...

I have just telephoned the ebay helpline number and the CS I spoke to said he would report it to T&S which might have a speedier response.

I just feel we should all play by the rules, expensive as they are.

Surely its not just a case of fee avoidance though. Am I right in thinking if it goes missing in transit or is a fake or faulty then paypal wont refund postage so the unfortunate buyer would only be able to claim a fiver.

no that's not right. if a claim is successful paypal refund the full amount paid including original postage. the only thing they don't refund is return postage costs.

Imagine the seller trying to recoup the value of the bag from RM if it went missing,they could provide the invoice for the £5 paid and would get £5 back:rotfl: :rotfl:
