Postage discrepancies

[ivycat1!]

I have bought many dresses from Ebay & the postage each time is around £3.50 first class. I bought a dress recently and queried the £5.75 first class postage. I was told Ebay had said that was correct The dress came today & the amount on the post office label is £3.55, the same as Ive always paid. There has been no offer of reimbursement from the seller & i dont expect I will get the extra i paid back from her. Is there any way i can claim this back?

It's called postage and packaging because it incurs costs to post and costs to pack.

For some those costs are greater than others.

If you agree to the amount it's going to cost before you pay, you can hardly monitor the stamp price and gauge whether its a fair representation of the total cost to the seller.

You should also be aware that all those lovely sellers who give you free postage don't actually give you free postage - they simply add the costs they incur in posting and packing to the buy it now or start price.

Also, it isn't true that throwing salt over your shoulder stops you having bad luck - I did it yesterday and got thumped by the man behind me in the chip shop.
