This is the first and only thread I have created on here dave, I did reply to another thread today that was similar so i'm not digging anything up. I also checked the listing and i can't see any reference to the Item being shipped from international offices. Maybe i'm missing something...

Looks like you got your message through to them, Congrats!

 

Although they were quite rude to you.

Well done bulkniffum.  Their feedback is pretty atrocious.  97.9 is not good on ebay for a big seller.

I'm in the same boat.  I mostly search specificly for Items located in Australia.   Sometimes i buy from other countries however, when i search for something that is suppose to be located in australia, I clicked that button for a reason and I EXPECT it to be posted from Australia, thats why i clicked on the button.

 

This is the reason i'm considering not using ebay in the future.  And that is the cost of lying, people leave and shop elsewhere.

Previous post before yours in March.

 

This is considered dragging up old threads. Regardless of joono's opinion, it is considered poor form. Especially when you then post the same in a new thread. And have no interest in dissenting POVs.

Its only poor form in a few regulars eyes to post on an older thread.

IMO it is far poorer form to post very unwelcoming posts in response to newcomers posting on an older thread.

The buyer bulkniffum wanted to buy from a seller located in Australia.

 

Why should they have all the old hands telling them that it was cheaper and faster from China or the US.  That was not the question that they were asking about.

 

The seller has less than honest listings and their feedback is not good.

YO and MO are usually different, so that is no surprise.

 

But old threads tend to have old, outdated information in them and resurrecting them doesn't actually achieve anything except to bring old, outdated information to the top. Which might cause new members to think the information is relevant.

 

Just MO, of course, but MO has a rational rationale behind it.

Davewil, sometimes YO is a bit dated but most posters would look at the answer to their question, not at something said back in 2113.

Joono

Of course, but i think that rationale is being lost by the sarcastic rude and sometimes mocking comments that are often made

Yes.  I think so too.
