A winters tale. Mr Scrooge and Oliver Twist.
Paid £84.10 with PAYPAL on 11 Dec, 2017 09:47 GMT for items
and this is the response I received for asking the seller to combine postage from one of the forum members. Sent:10-Dec-17 Chris : Hi please combine p/p many thanks chris Ebay Sellers reply : Cant do it . Ebay automaticallly produces invoices . The only way to do it is refund after youve paid ----------------- Sent:11-Dec-17 09:57 Chris : Hi no probs paying now chris Ebay Sellers reply : Thanks. I dont have a desktop so cant produce an invoice anymore. ----------------- ----------------- Sent:11-Dec-17 11:15 Chris : Hi **** what does that mean, no refund? Chris Ebay Sellers reply : It means you cant combine postage. Each item is automatically invoiced by ebay not me. ----------------- ----------------- Chris : I did suggest that the seller could put a £5 refund in the envelope with the badges. ----------------- ----------------- Sent:14-Dec-17 14:33 Ebay Sellers reply : If your not happy Chris,send the badges back and ill refund all your money. Youll find if you look in the T&Cs ,combining postage is a courtesy not a right. If you want to keep them,fine. Ill send you a part refund when i get home which will be Saturday afternoon at the earliest. However,from today, do not try and bid on any of my items. If you do and win the transaction will be cancelled. EBAY produce the invoice NOT me. When i had a desktop i could access the sale and send my own. From a phone you cant do that,which i explained to you. ----------------- Chris : Negative Feedback left for seller and it was removed but here it is "Postage negative, communication negative, badges positive , posting of items positive. " ----------------- Sent:22-Dec-17 18:25 Ebay Sellers reply : I suggest you remove feedback comments Chris or ill trash you. Your comments are unfair. I messaged you back and you didnt reply . So how am i supposed to know what you want to do . How can i send a refund if you dont tell me what your going to do ? ----------------- ----------------- Sent:22-Dec-17 18:28 Ebay Sellers reply : You also still didnt listen to what i told regarding invoices. And how do you know your sacred refund is not in the post ? ----------------- ----------------- Sent:22-Dec-17 18:30 Ebay Sellers reply : You have 24hrs to get it sorted out . ----------------- ----------------- Sent:22-Dec-17 18:32 Ebay Sellers reply : Actually forget it. ----------------- Date: 23/12/2017 Ebay Sellers reply : How f****** childish Chris.I notice you have emailed it not put it on ebay for them to see. It was really decent of you to reply ,obviously you feel your in the right well to be honest i couldnt give a f*** what you think .You are a sad individual who seems to think money can buy influence. I think ill have a tantrum and take my website down cos im not getting enough positive comments. It seems you are talking about yourself. Unfortunately ,the post i put on the forum has been taken dowm ,it was read by 50 people at least. So thats an addition to those who already know what your like . -- Chris : The last time I looked it was still up. --- My eBay: Combined Payments and Postage Discounts P&P discounts for multiple item purchases Buyers will save on P&P costs with combined postage discounts when they buy more than one item from you.

Hes having a moan because an ebay seller wouldnt meet his discount demands . Apparently, various other ebay sellers have had similar demands made of them . £59 on £251 worth of badges. "Take it or leave it" .
He also fails to mention that ebay found in favour of the seller and removed his comments . If he was in the right then ebay would have found in his favour not the sellers. Its not often that ebay find in favour of the seller rather than the buyer. The ebay verdict speaks a thousand words to me as whose in the right and whose in the wrong.

It’s really no hardship to add multiple items from one seller to you cart.
Usually that way postage fees are automatically combined. I have rarely found (maybe twice in a thousand transactions) that sellers price an item low, but then add an unfairly expensive postage fee. Seeing as this has been posted here - Perhaps the seller should be given the right of reply?

I know nothing about the background to this case or the people involved but I can feel the frustration emanating from this Forum member!
To some extent I share that frustration as there are a lot of sellers on ebay (and elsewhere I might add) who see postage and packing charges as another means of increasing their profit margin either by excessive charges or by refusing to discount p&p charges when several items could plainly go for the cost of one. To me the answer is fairly simple; firstly, in the case of obviously excessive charges don't buy and secondly, if a polite request for a p&p discount is refused then purchase but don't give them any further custom. I recently wanted to buy a single button (cost £15.00) from a very well-known dealer's website. When I got to the checkout the p&p price was £8.00 to the UK. Needless to say I backtracked, didn't buy and that dealer has lost my custom, probably for ever. I think the point here is to keep calm and keep the moral high ground and not to get involved in a slanging match either on ebay or this Forum. Roger |

Its funny ,the same weekend Gus Gemma (Ritchie Birch) politely asked about combined postage. He got his refund with his badges. I hope you arent trying to imply ive lied Chris ,if youd have asked in a decent manor about it ,youd have got it . Unfortunately you didnt. It says a lot when dealers are saying they are very reluctant about having you as a customer. So got and sit in your rocking chair in front of the mirror and have a good long look at yourself. Oh btw,it should be "let" not "leave" and you are crying over £5 maximum not £500. Id hardly call that greed,certainly not enough to retire on. |

Buying /selling badges
Forum members, whilst I may not be the fountain of all wisdom regarding the selling or identification of British and Commonwealth cap badges, collar dogs, and titles cloth or metal I have been doing this for the past sixty plus years.
I am in the process of selling off part of my sixty plus years collected badges, when I sort them out and I will offer them first on this forum. I cannot wonder but why people get problems with dealing online auctions, buy from forum members, it's easier . . ! Rob |

There is certainly something in buying at retail, in it's various forms, quite frankly, I think a lot of people like the "thrill" of an auction, perhaps the chance of getting something cheap, but, with it, comes the chance of being disappointed.
I much prefer to buy of an individual who you know and trust, he states how much he wants and you simply pay him. |
