Just a thought for the OP. Did you need to sign for the letter? As it may have been registered so the seller met his PP protection obligations. It would explain the xtra cost.

As I said, just a thought.

You did better then me. I was charged $2.00 postage for a pen that was put in an envelope with a 70cent stamp on it, no padded bag, no bubble wrap or protection at all. To make matters worse the incorrect pen was sent. I have emailed the seller and requested the correct item or a refund be provided with in 7 days. In reality the correct item could be posted and received in half that time. 7 days not up yet, and I am still waiting for a response.

 

I doubt that the pay for someone packing parcels is $80 000 per year, making your comment meaningless.

Whos to say it would only be one 20kg parcel.

 

I just  gave up sending breakables full stop.

 

Is Ebay the only online retail outlet were buyers expect to pay stamp cost for shipping items.?

ASSUMPTION IS THE MOTHER OF ALL STUFF UPS!!

I buy my pens from my local newsagent.

 

And $2.00 postage is not excessive for anything.
