Brought three items from one seller I messaged the seller to post the items togehter so I can pay a reduced postage price and refund me the rest of the money the seller did not want to post the items together as the seller was planning to post the items together only to make a profit on the postage the seller messaged me that he does not want to refund me any money back. I messaged the seller I did not want the items posted separately the seller said he will instead post the items separately as he does not want to refund anything back to me. As I paid £2.80 x3 I wanted to recieve a correct refund for the rest of the postage and the seller posted the items when I requested not to be posted separately before the items were posted.

Getting reduced postage is not a right - although it something that many sellers will offer their buyers. However, the request is better made before bidding and certainly before paying.

 

Once you had paid the seller will have been charged fees by eBay on the postage as well as the payment for the item. They cannot get any refund on these fees if they refund any of the postage to the buyer. So this money will have been taken from the seller as soon as you paid and before he posted the items.

 

You assume in a rather insulting fashion that the seller wanted to make a profit on the postage. You assume that you have the right to demand combined postage.

 

By posting on here you have drawn attention to your limited knowlege of how eBay works and to the feedback you leave for your sellers. It's possible that you may find yourself on some blocked bidders lists as a result which could hamper your buying on the site.
