Why are ebay endorsing FedEx? Rant!

[trembla007]

Ive had recent problems with items not arriving on time from the US. When i have tracked the item I see that it arrives in Australia with no problem and then all progress stops. The first time I enqiured with ebay, they tell me the item has been transfered to FedEx for delivery but when I inquire with FedEx they tell me the tracking number isnt theirs! What good is this tracking info if you cant tell who has your package! Suddenly the item arrived. Fancy that....

The next case was from the same buyer and I had the same issue. The package made it to Australia and the stops with FedEx! Im currently still waiting for that package which is now 8 days past the latest delievery date which was the 5th May. This time ebay provided me with a new tracking number for FedEx and on their website my item is sitting at a rural depot and has been for the last 10 days. My item was shipped priority mail from the US but on FedEx's site its listed as economy..I asked for a refund so I could buy the item from a different forum as I need it quite urgently. I looked at my cases progress and ebay have put it on HOLD until th 17th! to gather more documentation....So I googled FedEx and ebay and up comes an endorsement from ebay for sellers to sign up to use FedEx through thier ebay sales to recieve discounted rates on postage.

Do the sellers know thier items arent arriving at the correct time? Do they realise why they might get bad feedback? What point is complaining to ebay when they are in bed with FedEx!

Today is Saturday 13th of May. What's the bet my item arrives on Monday now.....

You said . . . 

Tippytoes, you should be accurate in what you say.

Please don't distort things!

funny you should say this about others distorting things and being accurate.  

How about going back to those other threads and addressing the distortions and inaccuracies in your posts on those threads.  Funny that you stopped posting there when your inaccuracies and distortions were pointed out!

k1ooo-slr-sales , I've distorted nothing.

You said ...  " Funny that you stopped posting there when your inaccuracies and distortions were pointed out!"

I haven't posted on those threads again because nothing else to discuss. A crypto pitney defender and a couple of other folks that have a go at the orgiinal poster with accusations of whining and a feeble attempt a mocking the original poster etc, why bother. Nothing to do with what you cleverly try to suggest.

4 threads out of 72699, yep I can see your point about the obscene amount of threads about this. That's 0.00550214% of all the threads posted. A tragedy. Clearly a lot of people have an issue. I can definitely see your point now. My humblest apologies.

Did you restock the wagon wheels that the batlet ate? I've got some crumpets to take in there, but I could really go some wagon wheels too if it's going to be an extended stay. If you get me some supplies, I'll make cheesecake.

Far out, groovy. I had no idea you were so good with figures and also have the time to do it all.   Having time to work this out and posting on this account and  whatever. Can I see you at tax return time?

Tippy is educated....she did not use her fingers and toes.  She learned how to use one of those new fangled calculators when she was at school.   They are a lot easier than the abacus that I used.
