Hi guys,
I hope you are all well. I have just received a message from a buyer stating that they have received a parcel I sent on Tuesday but without the actual item. The lodged weight was 1.8kg and I remember packing this as I have had very few sales this week. The item was certainly in the box as I had 3 of these in stock all lined up next to each other and now I have two next to each other. I take great care in packing my items so I go through a process and remember going through that same process packing this. I also have to weigh every package as they always differ because my items are all different and sometimes I use packing peanuts and others cardboard fill.
The buyer is claiming that the parcel arrived weighing only 492 grams and sent through images of the box with the packing materials inside. The thing is I know Australia Post have been getting ever more strict recently with measuring and weighing parcels so I am hoping this time they have also weighed this one. I have replied saying that I am sorry they have had this experience and that I may need to lodge a Police report and also lodge an enquiry with Australia Post. I know for certain the item was packed and sent.
Any tips you would suggest? The buyer opened his message with 'Hi. I am impressed by your 100% positive feedback rating. I'm also impressed by the early arrival of my package. I'm not quite sure how you achieved this rating." this raised some flags for me as it suggests I will be scared about the feedback. I know this could just be an upset buyer though. Any ideas on how to proceed?
