    Seller's listing did not mention Signature Required.
                     

    Summary: A participant expressed concern that a seller's listing did not mention the requirement for a signature upon delivery. This issue was noted in a discussion, and several participants responded, though none provided a detailed resolution or a specific viewpoint.

    Would appreciate being advised the correct way I should conduct myself RE an item I won that listed Postage as "Australia Post Standard Parcel" with no mention of Signature Required.

    Unless I really want something, I never bid/buy an item that requires a signature. This item certainly is not in that category

    This morning I received  Aust. Post SMS saying item at P.O. to be picked up as Seller Requested Signature.

    I live in a rural area & very rarely stop in the tiny township, as I usually drive straight through.

    I've read that Aust. Post keep the item for 10 days & then return it to sender.

    If this happens should the seller refund me?

    You can make arrangements with you local PO agent, or the AP delivery contractor for your mail route.

    I'm fairly sure that AP hold items for a month.

     

    That is certainly the case in my Major Metro area.

     

    Hopefully you will be driving through town in that time.

    Does A.P. usually deliver to your door?

    No, it will be deemed that you refused/failed to collect the item from post office, and you will not be covered by ebays MBG.

    As far as I am aware, if a buyer refuses to collect the item they are not covered by the MBG

     

    So no, the seller would be under no obligation to refund you
