Slow postage on ebay.....

Post by callyboy » Mon Sep 26, 2011 3:59 pm

It does piss me off when things get to me quicker when they have been posted from Portugal, China and Taiwan than items from the UK. Parcel post seems to have slowed to a crawl (1 lost item as well) and the rest of the time people dont post straight away !!!! Grrrrrrr :(

Still waiting for my fuel filter !!!!!!

more to do with despatch times

next day service great, but if they take 5 days to post then it's c**p

i tend to quote 2 days for despatch as that seems fair, but sometimes shifts don't allow,

it's why when i sell on the bay i tend to be really particular about when i post items so i don't disappoint

what i really dislike on ebay is folk listing then selling outside for offers

sometimes you win/sometimes you lose but if you dont respect the spirit then you can't trust those who deal there

soapbox stashed, coat collected
