Postage changed...!?

Hi everyone,

Can someone please help me? I've been watching an item with a buy it now or best offer option. It had free postage. So I made an offer and it was accepted. Then I got to pay this morning and suddenly the postage is $15! A ridiculous amount for the item anyway.

What on earth had happened? I've messaged the seller but I'm so confused. The listing still says free postage when you go back into it - what has happened?

Thanks!

Speak to a supervisor when you phone eBay, do not be fobbed off, demand a supervisor.

But still $15.00 isnt such a high price and if you got the item cheaply then pay it. Be more wary next time. I have bought items and listing has showed low price for post but when you go to pay the postage price has increaed by quite a lot.(this happens very rarely) The sellers wont change post price so I never bother asking.

I've appealed it, so will see how I go. If they refuse, THEN I'll get on the phone. I just know what I'm like and I prefer to remain polite. I don't swear or be vulagar, but I don't want to have to get firm on the phone. 

 

Michelle. It's not the cost, it's the PRINCIPAL. I don't care about the monetary value. The seller did something they are not allowed to do. I am not going to reward that sneakiness. If they didn't like what I offered, the should not have been sneaky about it and accepted only to add on potage AFTER sale had finalised. It is absolutely NOT about being wary. How could I have been wary? I offered, and it was accepted. They had 100% feedback (only on 3-4 items, but still how could I have been wary of that?), there was NOTHING to indicate they were going to scam me. If you never bother asking, that is on you. I will NOT let someone rip me off. Absolutely not. I value honesty, integrity and dignity. This seller has none of those qualities. I wont let someone rip me off and get away with it.

You'll get used to Michelle. Her views rarely intersect with reality.
