Hi guys, anyone know this ebayer by any chance?
the way i look at it,That's onething I cannot stand, sellers trying to make money off poastage. I don't care if they make an extra .50c, I expect it back or appropriate stars and fb is left.

100% with Norm on this.
I had someone charge me $11.50 the other day for postage. I assumed that was for a parcel post bag because that what it said in the listing. Get the item today and its in a box from home with $6.55 in postage.
Is that wrong if i neg or neutral them??
And charging to travel to the post office. Lamest excuse ever.
the way i look at it,
postage fees are there in front of you BEFORE you pay.
if you are not happy and cant come to an agreement then don't pay it.
but if you DO choose to pay it
I think it is WRONG to then neg them for it!
That is my opinion...
As for the postage cost, just because oz post charge x amount, and a bubble mailer costs x, the seller may have to take into account the travel time and expense to actually post it (maybe they live in the country and have to travel a long way, or even catch a cab there?)
I think that explains it perfectly. Is really up to the seller what they chose to charge for postage and the buyer if they agree to it. Would have been pretty obvious that 2 cards would not cost $8 to me. Just sayinthe way i look at it,

Maybe next time I sell a card, i should add $1 per card for "Time to scan and list the card"
yeah thats why i contacted him first to see what he has to say. I'm not complaining about paying $4 for posateg on a card but charging it twice and sending in the same package is a bit wrong i reckon.I give them the opportunity to refund the difference, if they don't i neg them for basically stealing.

I often do not bid on items because the seller puts postage at $6.95 or $8.95 for a .99c card.
My loss or theirs!
exactly, the price for postage was $8, that was known before the deal was finalized, so there was a choice made here, We ALL know the postage cost is high,I think that explains it perfectly.

How is it even remotely like stealing, when you know the cost before the deal is done.I give them the opportunity to refund the difference, if they don't i neg them for basically stealing.
That is entirely up to you. BUT then people may not choose to buy from you, that is entirely their call..
exactly like this...

BUT MY POINT IS
why does the seller deserve a Neg... he has done his part of the deal correctly.

Now dont get me wrong here, I think it sucks when people overcharge shipping costs, and every time i sell i ONLY charge actual cost, often less, On my own website i even offer FREE postage on some orders,
You know pretty well what it would cost to post. so inflated shipping costs stand out.. if you dont like it DONT pay it.
