I discovered my error too late to revise it but added to the description that I had made an error.  Each bidder was advised before the end of the auction but the buyer was a last minute bid.   I contacted him/her immediately but no response (Sunday) so yesterday I tried to contact him again - in the meantime he paid - but again no response.   I had hopes for acknowledgement this morning but no such luck.   I have offered to see if I can cancel - Can I?   Thanks   Veronica     ...

Hi all   I'm selling an item for the first time, from Australia (it's a laptop) and someone has purchased from America.    When I sent the person a payment reminder they responded as below:      REMOVED   I asked him what he meant then he responed with:   REMOVED Regards.   I have since sent him a message tell him about shipping costs. It's basically $90 without insurance or $145 with insurance (both tracked and signature). Does this look like a scam? Should I send him an invoice and if he pays, is that all legitimate?   Any help would be appreciated.   Cheers   Nathan ... View more

I am returning to eBay after a few years break. I mainly trade in books, and in the past frequently sold to buyers outside Australia. That was easy when the postage cost was not included in the ebay fee structure. Now that it is I am stymied about what minimum cost (starting bid) price I need to set to avoid ending up paying, instead of being payed, at the end of the transaction, if the book goes overseas. Or do I give up and just sell within Australia. Any help would be greatly appreciated - I've got the  selling 'bug', and some  time at the moment, but want my processes properly in place before I start. ... View more

1) Ebay “Quote” Postage tracking is information provided by the postage carrier on the whereabouts of a parcel once it has been entered into their system “Unquote”.  Scotty H. (AusPost Community) “Quote” The movement of International Post Economy articles aren't recorded while they travel through the postal network both here and overseas. “Unquote”. What happens if the buyer claims the item was not received and no tracking information can be verified if sending by Economy Air outside Australia. 2) Sending with Postage Stamps, the item being deposited in a Pillar Box outside a P.O. , there is also no Tracking, again , what happens if there is a dispute, and NO printed Label with a tracking number is provided.
