Would'nt it be wonderful when Australia Lost goes up for privatization, Greedbay could buy it and really nail the little guy to the wall.
I rang up and asked if a seller anciently over charges for postage, does the right thing and refunds the difference Greedbay WILL not refund you .
They want to encourage "free" postage, which is all well and good for big companies. Seems the billions they earn isn't quite enough anymore.
As in the words of Gordon Gecko, Greed is good.
It has been my suspicion for quite some time that eBay wants to get rid of the sellers of second hand goods (to Gumtree, which they own, for example) and turn itself into a seller of mass-produced-in-China-free-postage-because-it's-subsidised items, a sort of Amazon.com mark II.
The recent FVF on postage and strong 'encouragement' to incorporate postage into selling price (easy for mass produced items with known postage cost) confirms this strategy.
