Why buy local when Auspost negates any delivery time gain?

Hi people,

 

Sitting waiting, sitting waiting ... for days - postie just keeps riding past ..

 

Why should I buy local when Auspost negates any delivery time gain?

 

Overseas prices are a lot less than local prices - but the delivery times made the local selection the obvious choice.

Now, the delivery time is no longer in days but stretching into weeks.

 

From now on I'll buy direct from Jaycar what I need immediately (inflated prices) - then I'll be looking on Alibaba for when I want to buy bulk!

 

Another opportunity for local small business' squashed ...

 

eBay should get off its overpaid **bleep** or lose business!

 

cheers

no one HAS to leave feedback its totally up to buyers if they do or not.

The feedback left (that anyone leaves) is most certainly directed at the seller and the seller alone

 

As you have been on ebay over 10 years, I suspect you are well aware of that though (and do not care)

 

How would leaving abusive feedback like that reflect on or hurt ebay or AP? they do not read the comments,or look at the sold items

All it does it make the seller look like they did not send the item in a timely fashion

 

A pity you direct your clever comments and abuse to everyone except to those at fault

 

Have you phoned ebay and told them all these things?

 

Have you gone and told a post master how you feel?

 

Have you lodged a complaint in writing to AP?

 

All very easy to abuse sllers and forum members ,easy but not going to give the results you want

<= I beg to differ. I leave feedback when I appreciate service. There is a a blank edit field which is mandatory! That annoys me.

I appreciate the links but have better things to waste my time on!

cheers

Bit below the belt attacking a minority group. It isn't easy being an ebay troll as some nasty sellers keep giving away our bridge as a free gift with an opera house thus rendering us homeless.
