[QUOTE="PGowdy, post: 283630, member: 2042"] The 2 "agreements" to pay for an item are separate. You keep throwing the postage cost in with the cost of the item and saying "that's what you agreed to pay for the item. That is wrong. You agree to pay £2 for item. And the postage was quoted as costing £10 so you pay that on the provisor that it does actually cost £10 not because the seller thinks it's ok to massively overcharge you to take extra money off you that he justifies by saying 'well ebay are screwing me so i should be allowed to screw you'. That is so wrong to me. If the sellers feel they are not getting a good enough deal out of it they should raise the price of their item. Not state that postage costs more than it does. That seems inherently dishonest to me and using the system to screw the buyer out of a few more quid. I'm actually shocked that so many people are defending intentional, significant overcharging on postage for the sole purpose of profiting from possibly, naive buyers. It states in the sale that 'x' amount is the cost of postage and packing. To intentionally charge significantly more than that in order to profit is wrong to me. I don't see any other angle. [/QUOTE]
