phorum, just looking through  the boards, I have often wandered why are customers so "cheap" as well as very dishonest on Ebay, and not really anywhere else?

I still refuse to think that it's a special kind of people/customers - people are people, surely, no matter where they shop!

But there is this problem of postage going on forever - with Ebay shoppers seem to be willing to do anything to get out of paying for return postage!

Weather measurements are in the listing or not - those who want to blame the seller somehow always will, claim measurements are wrong (easy to tweak the measuring tape and fabric to appear different from the listing),  and clothing with no measurements (S,M,L) is never quite "in my opinion isn't large enough, or small,  or whatever) - that is without bothering to ask for the measurements first!

Someone prior just said: "You shouldn't have to ask for measurements"

Why on Earth not?

How hard can it be? Especially if you like something and have to have it.

But even that is never a guarantee of the perfect fit - for that you have to trawl the real shops and try things on.

But to blame the sellers in almost every instance and find ways not to have to pay return postage is not cool

With all that - I am not surprised in the slightest that sellers are giving less and less info about anything in the listings - to reduce the fodder on which buyers can manipulate it to their advantage and easier claim not as described - and not pay return postage, or worse still, get the refund and keep the item!
