Just sold an item that stated "pickup only" buyer now wants postage

[jamestrembath-2121]

Just sold an item that stated "pickup only" buyer has selected a postage service?

I did not offer postage, any one know what to do.

Many thanks in advance

To add to the others that you should bail, you must have offered a postage service, otherwise the 'buyer' could not have selected one.

Cancel the transaction with 'problem with buyer's address'. Before you relist check your postage options.

When I look at the OP's sold item postage shows as pickup only. The OP may have meant that the buyer requested postage, rather than chose a postage option.

Many thanks, eBay actually called and suggested I bail as postage was not offered

And just to add

Please be careful, especially as a brand new seller make sure that you understand the risks involved , especially with a high priced item which is often a 'magnet' for *some* buyers who seek out inexperienced sellers

Please also be sure you are fully and correctly signed up to Managed Payments (and have been verified to sell) 

Good luck

OMG, I didn't check the item......I'd be fast-tracking out of this one......cash on pick-up at a local police station, or nothing!

@twyngwyn Well, it has been relisted. Hopefully the OP cancelled the original sale so they get their fees back. We can only hope they end up with a decent. honest buyer

you can either: post by revising the invoice (include shipping), OR cancel transaction by reason of: problem with buyer's address
