Hi all.
I have been buying on eBay for years and have only had a couple of problems. One was/is Harold of Spitfire Header fame, but that's another story all together.
Well, I just went to the Post Office to pick up my mail, and the present that I bought for my wife was there. As soon as I saw the box, I was pissed. OK, the seller doesn't have a long history, and I should be a little more diligent but really. I paid $15 shipping that cost the seller $5.01. Do ya think that they could splurge for a little hard cardboard or a box????????
I have bought several similar items, as Barb "Loves Lucy". All of the others have come well packed, in a separate box. This one just had a wrap of brown paper, it barely even covered the package, maybe a 1/4" overlay, maybe. How cheap can ya get???????????
What should I do in regards to the seller?
Ask for the entire amount to be refunded? Or just the shipping? Or should I ask that they purchase a new, undamaged one and send it to me, at which time I will return this POS.
Here's how it showed up, and the others that I have.
