Postage ripoff??

[looking!]

Hi all,

A couple of weeks ago I posted regarding a funny way of doing combined postage.

The seller (in Canada) had combined postage as follows -

$9.99 first item, $4.99 each additional item. (I bought 3)

OK, no problem . But when I went to pay he said "You pay the full postage (9.99 each) and I will then reimburse you when you recieve the items."

So I emailed when the items arrived. This is his response.

"Also, for insurance purposes I'll need pictures of the package, this way we can pin point all the details of the shipment."

HUH!!! Insurance!!!   Need pictures for postage reimbursement?? Pinpoint the details of the shipment??

Has anyone ever heard of this type of process before re postage? Just seems a very odd way to do business.

garvoc, I would very much appreciate it if you would refrain from sending me foul and threatening garbage to my community messages. If in fact you are as 'ill' as you state, perhaps it would be best for you to contact someone who can really help you professionally, we are but humble sellers and buyers here.

it just proves my point that if capital letters is yelling you people need a life seriously need a life.

Regardless of whether capitals is considered as 'shouting' or 'yelling' on forums on the internet or not, I just find large slabs of capital text hard to read.  So . . . after the first line or two I just stop reading (and I think others would too).

If any member has something to say . . . . . something they want everyone to read . . . . . then put it in an easy to read format.
