Ah yeah, I just posted stuff to what looked like a random Chinese shipping place in London. Never sent to a place like that before, but hopefully their isn't any problems.

Is it ebays global shipping program? I've sent to Italy using them but would only use the official ebay global shipping program rather than 3rd parties.

To save starting yet another eBay thread....

I bought a handbag for the missus for Xmas, paid the winning amount but then the seller said I hadn't sent the postage fee and that the free postage she advertised only applied to Belgium.

I sent her a screen shot of the advert that displayed worldwide shipping and free shipping but there's now radio silence.

I offered to compromise on the shipping costs (I have no idea about handbags but know she wants this one so I was prepared to pay a little extra just to get it) and still got nothing back.

Sent another message asking to contact me as I'd prefer to settle this amicably, still nothing.

Is it even worth raising a case with eBay now?

They can't be made to send it.

Just leave feedback and find another

Thought so, it's second hand so can't find another at the same price and with the same photos that would allow it to be authenticated as far as possible without seeing it in the flesh.

Oh well, I'll cancel the PayPal and then give a her as bad a review as possible.

could they not have just cancelled the transaction .. the sorry it got damaged during packing ...
obviously they made a legitimate mistake ... any stuff legtimately dhl'd out of europe from de/fr/be with insurance is > £12

The bag was £220 and my missus thought it was a bargain (she owns a shop selling designer second hand goods so knows the market), so TBH I'd have sucked up the £12 to get it, i'm just annoyed by the rudeness of just ignoring me. Plus i now have to think of something else to get for Xmas and she's bloody difficult to buy for. :rolleyes:
