Hi all, I purchased some items (miniatures) via ebay on 19/2/15 and paid a total of $150 plus $34.05 in postage via paypal. I have been contacted today by the seller to pay an additional $13.50 on top of the already paid sum to cover extra postage costs (as it went into a bigger box or something). The initial request: Hi, I just posted the Warhammer games. I put them in a box to protect them and the postage was $47.55. I would hope you would pay the difference as you paid less than $30. I will invoice you for the difference on PayPal. Cheers I searched through ebay and it appears I do not have to pay additional postage from what was on the listing, I replied: Hi, Thank you for posting everything so promptly, though I do not wish to cover the difference as the $34.05 that was listed as postage should have covered everything? I then received a reply: Hi, To protect the games I put them all in a box, rather than risk an expandable tough bag. As a result of this the dimensions were calculated by Australia post on a cubed rate. I had no idea there would be a difference. I do not believe I should have to bear the cost for taking extra care with your purchases. I never charge for packaging only the Australia post charge. I ask that you be reasonable in this as I went ahead and posted it in good faith. Cheers Am I obligated to pay the extra money? It feels like I am being made out to be unreasonable and at fault. What should I do?
