Over the top delivery amount! Extra $800!!??

[missmuffitt5]

Moved from other Postage problem thread!

I purchased a chicken coop, won the auction for $118 + $60 postage (post code 4000 to 4200) and to contact them if outside this area (4615)

I sent a message about postage before I bid, but did not get a reply before the auction was ending so bid on it anyway.

I was expecting maybe $80 to $100 to get it delivered!

My Invoice said $118 +$60 +$800.

I have tried to contact the seller about this being an error... 

Any help with this would be appreciated!!

And the suspected chicken coop seller has all their listings as private which is probably why you couldn't see it on OP's purchases.

I have previously purchased a chicken coop from this seller a little over 12 months ago.

This coop is smaller but with a reasonable postage fee. $45 + $20.

So you see I am not being unreasonable... I should have looked up this guy before dealing with the one I am having problems with!!

[missmuffitt5]

Yes that is the one...Tinna pet.

[nonny_muss]

Well that establishes that the coop is not from Melbourne!!:^O

But they do use a courier, and being closer to QLD the $800 still doesn't make sense!

The one at the end of 2011 was $195 with free postage!

Sorry, I am getting all chicken-brained, the previous coop you linked to is from NSW, the $800 delivery coop you are talking about IS from Melbourne, yes? 

[missmuffitt5]

Sorry Nonny_muss, I got the ORIGINAL one from that guy over 12 months ago...

Yes you are right, the latest one is from "TINNA PET"

Is the item located  in Melbourne ?

Where are you ? How far away ?

Some sellers may state in their listings contact us if outside certain areas as the Courier costs may be more expensive and/or they don't deliver to other areas?

Nonny here again  --   exceeded my daily allowance of posts : (    

 I have asked the seller how much to post to Gladstone QLD so the postcode is still out of the 4000-4200 range but not your exact postcode. 

Don't hold my breath in getting a reply but I am not expecting it to be $800!!

If you have messaged the seller and they haven't replied perhaps request a revised invoice (with a message to the seller explaining the issue) through the payment process ?
