Ebay postage prices

[timbo72]

Having just won 4 different auctions from the same seller, the postage outstanding is £11.16 (13 loose figures)

Have emailed the guy 3 times since last night and no response to multiple buy postage discount

Anyone else think this price is a little unfair ??

Ps......They are being sent from Scotland to Grimsby (not overseas)

If multiple discount P&P is not specified in his listings, his is(as far as ebay are concerned) well within his rights to charge that for them, though we all know its a totally unacceptable way to trade, I would contact ebay all the same & ask them there opinion.

Just as a for instance, I sold nearly 25 loose this week in a lot & am charging £5.99 P&P which I think will cover it ^ that's boxed up with adequate protection of bubble wrap & loose fill.

To be honest mate - the best way is to politely remind him that you will have 13 separate opportunities to leave negative feedback if he does not see you right on postage.

£5.00 is more than fair for postage of these figure.

He's ripping. you off. This happens to me all the time and i will not pay multiple postage. I just request combined shipping and if they won't do it i won't pay for the stuff.
One other option (which i did attempt once and at this request he agreed to lower the postage), i said- if i pay the multiple postage i expect the items to arrive in 13 (4 in my case) different packages. If they do not, i will know you have intentionally and dishonestly profited from postage charges and i will leave negative feedback. (13 times!)

Personally i'd just tell the guy to adjust the postage fairly or **** off.

All sorted now, more than 50% off the price. Hopefully i'll get some nice new additions to the ever growing loose collection

Glad you got a result, but just so you know I managed to send my parcel off which was 22 loose & a wompa in a cardboard box with filling for £2.66 via 2nd class so I refunded the buyer £3 to compensate, which I always do to the nearest pound, just a shame more do not do the same.

some **** is charging me £3 for postage on a single loose figure i wouldnt mind so much but the figure only cost me 99p. hes gonna get a neutral feedback!

Contact him and ask why the postage is so much. Ask if it will be sent recorded delivery. If he does not reduce it (or send it recorded) then leave negative feedback. It's the only way you'll get his attention. Neutral feedback doesn't affect his feedback %.
