OUR REPLY -
Hi Oscar, Thanks for your purchase 1) We have explicitly mentioned shipping Charges. And this must have been visible before bidding. THIS IS ALSO CLEARLY WRITTEN IN OUR ACUTION 2) We are not making any money in shipping and we are charging exactly what we are paying as per SPEED Post Government of INDIA shipping rates. We pay Approx US21 to Europe and charge US20 only. All our buyers are happily paying the shipping which is the standard. 3) Or u can opt for REGISTERED PARCEL SERVICE - US$ 12; 12-20 Days Delivery; Not Traceable. advisable for Parcels of value US100 and less. Please advice! best Wishes Ambesh

Hey Ambesh,
I certainly understand how you feel. eBay cannot actually do anything. But I still suggest speakin to Live Help on eBay. They have some specialist team which could probably help you. I mean they can also check what kind of history the buyer has. There should be some way out. But I would personally be stunned if these kind of buyers come our way. If we list everything in the shipping by bidding on it they're committing to it.

It's true that feedback is become more of a blackmailing thing. It goes more dangerous in internationally site business.

Regards,

I can understand your concern. I believe a tool must be developed for sellers to accept or decline the highest bid, with a logical reason though.
