Ebay postage micky takers!

<< < (4/4)

screwy:
Short answer is either a) ask them to reduce it if you win or b) dont bid!! :?

Guardian.:
exactly!
but do remember also, i have to same as any other, wrap in packaging that isnt given to me for free, drive approx 12 miles return trip to carrier and time to wrap!
bear that in mind, but just way up for yourself how much you want to pay and bid accordingly.

I think we all know the difference between a fair P&P price and taking the mickey. I live next door to a Post Office but even if I lived twenty miles away I would still charge the same- I just wouldn't go out of my way to get a parcel off.- it would just have to wait till I was near the post office. All my packing is free (recycled stuff - as is most of the packaging I seem to receive) so why I should charge/be chared for that I don't know? Time- well if you're trying to make a living out of E-bay, charge for your time- but casual E-bayers shouldn't really be factoring this in!

bullfrog:
Why not. Nothing in this world is free and anyone on ebay should know this .
Some folks dont have packaging to hand and have to purchase paper, tape, string etc.
I generaly use recycled wrapping and always choose cheapest courier but I do allow for my time .
As already said if you dont agrre then dont bid, I really dont see what the problem is ???
