Misled postage
Summary: nowt.taken.out expressed frustration after purchasing a spanner on eBay for £6.40, assuming there was no postage charge since it was not mentioned. However, they were unexpectedly charged £19 for delivery from America. They feel misled, as they were not informed of the delivery cost beforehand, and attempts to contact the seller have gone unanswered.
I purchased a spanner from Ebay £6.40 there was no mention of postage so I thought maybe free, and no mention of where it was coming from and as it was in £ I thought this country, I was wrong they charged me £19 for delivery as it was coming from America, I didn't check till a couple of days later after another spanner I ordered had been delivered so it was too late to cancel. I have contacted the seller but no response, I feel as if I have been mislead as they should know why would I order a £6 spanner and pay £19 postage???

You will also pay VAT.
You need to check costs carefully before paying, invoice will show total.
