Something not mentioned (at least that I read) is to buy a scale off ebay for $15 and print all your postage from home. You can print international and local postage directly from paypal or USPS.com and with Priority mail tracking is free and paypal sends an email to the buyer right away with a tracking number and a lik to track it. I have been doing this for a couple years now and I cannot tell you how many hours it has saved me sitting a post office waiting for crappy service. i can either just drop boxes in the bin or set them on the counter and walk out. 5 min ordeal and you can order all the boxes and customs form slips off the USPS website for free like mentioned above.
Wow, that really sucks =/ Do you have the USPS receipt though? I'm pretty sure you can try to use that to get your money back as it's proof that you DID ship the item. That or a picture of it with all of your stuff. The more evidence that you had it and shipped it the better, but Paypal probably won't do anything about it since it was so long ago.
Always throw in a little something extra... helps remind everybody that it's not all cut and dried biz... we're all here cause we love toys, art, etc. and like to hang with others who do too.
If you buy something from me, it might take awhile to get to your door. I'm competing w/ a few other board members to see who ships the slowest.
had dc# and reciept, found the dude selling it on eBay! Showed paypal, they follow their rules to the T.. If it's worth $400 signature con or else to them u didn't ship it...
Hey Joe, my package arrived yesterday . . . did I get preferential treatment because I'm so damn handsome or my sparkling wit and personality?
I'm pretty sure that cat isn't wrapped in accordance with angelyote's packaging protocol . . . looks like it survived shipping OK though!
Last toy I bought on E-bay, dude didn't even throw any packaging material in the box, no bubble wrap no newspaper. Just threw the toy in there. I don't know how it arrived to me free of rubs. Maybe he thought a $15 RxH mini wasn't worth the bother.
Maybe this is just me, but when I have an item "Pending," I like to keep the price posted. I guess removing the price cuts down on others emailing you, asking to be notified if the toy is available again. I'd prefer to have a list of potential buyers if someone flakes, rather than have someone flake and have to repost the toy.
