eBay & Postage issue, need help soon.
« on: June 03, 2008, 04:50:39 PM »
I'm in a spot of bother with a certain ebay member. I sent a Hard Drive to this guy and hes reporting he hasn't had it. I thought I kept the receipt but I must have thrown it out by mistake thinking it was rubbish which had accumilated in my wallet. I'm sure he's honest, problem is I am too but he seems to be using that 'lack of proof' for a way of getting him a replacement or a re-fund. His feedback is patchy in places but is mostly positive so that could be a sign but it's unfair to use that against him I think.
I'v asked him to visit his local Post Office in case they may have it without informing him (it's happend to be more then once), Other then that i'm lost for what to do.
Any help would be great.

@ countzero, It was about £10 but please don't, your being far too kind!

@ Red, It was bought PayPal but I don't know of any way to track the item unless it was sent via 'Recorded'. How can it be deliverd with the backing by PayPal?

I did forget to add that I clearly stated in my listing that "I cannot be resoncible for any wrong infomation supplied by the buyer and/or if lost in post".
Though it's annoying that I threw out the reciept not realising it could have been important (and it was in this case). I guess I find it hard to take in that I REALLY did send the item.

Oh and I agree on the feedback front, eBay is a right farce now, it's a load of crap about sellers being dodgy, there's more dodgy buyers then sellers I am positive. If there are some nasty sellers out there the negative feedbacks will soon accumilate thus being banned. Also it's down to the buyer to choose a trusted seller. Even if it was the sellers at fault it doesn't justify removing the possibility to send negative to buyers to warn other sellers about them. This will be a ream come true for net ASBO's.

@ Boot_WB,

I think I did actually! Il dig up the info and I can use that to prove postage to the buyer. Thanks for the heads up.
