Seller ripping me off on postage

[mickledore0]

I made an offer on an item inclusive of postage. Seller accepted my offer but is now demanding postage on top of the agreed price. What can I do? I cannot see anywhere to report this to ebay!

Look, this is what you see when you make your offer and then go onto the nest screen to submit it.

Your offer price is shown and the postage cost is shown.

That's what you're agreeing to pay the seller.

No. There is s space to make comments to the seller. I clearly stated in there that my offer included postage. Seller accepted my offer so he accepted the comments made in that offer.

He may or may not have read my comments, but that is not my fault.

He accepted my offer which clearly stated that postage was included.

you still don't get it, it doesn't matter what you wrote in the comments box, you offer was on top of the postage amount,

the auto accept means the seller doesn't get to see the comments until after the offer has been accepted, you should have reduced your offer until the total amount, offer + P&P was the amount you were willing to spend,


if you are not willing to pay you need to apologise to the seller, explain you didn't understand the system and ask them to cancel the transaction,


they don't have to agree and can complete a non payment case against you instead.

@mickledore0 You can't ask for inclusive postage in the comments box. That's for asking if it can be sent by a certain date etc.

The postage is clearly shown.
