seller underpaid postage

[flippy2motorcycles]

Hi

    I purchased a coin from a seller on 21 august £3.40 postage paid on item , the post office delivered a leaflet saying the item was underpaid on postage and I would need to collect from sorting office and pay an extra £3 to get item which I did, contacted buyer and told him of the extra charge, with pics  of original packing with my address and his and post office label with postage to pay, he said he was on holiday and can not see how I had to pay extra postage.and would look at it when he got back, heard nothing he has now left positive feedback, but left this comment " Made false claims regarding postage charges. Very Poor Buyer "  

I am not happy with this comment as I have the proof I was charged for the postage payment so have not made a false claim and do not class myself as a poor buyer  can I get ebay to remove his feedback as I believe this is unfair , but because of the length of time that has elasped i cant seem to find a way on ebay to get it removed as he has only just left feedback.

When you are asked to pay postage to the Post office as there is insufficient on the item you should contact the seller first before paying

You have no way of forcing them  to refund the postage once you have paid it

If you dont pay it then the item would be sent back to the seller and you open a not received dispute

Too late now to do that

Sellers are not allowed to leave anything but positive for a buyer and that seller has violated ebay policy by leaving a positive with a negative comment

Report to ebay to get it removed

 It seems to say it was in the last month so you should be within time

I order lots of stuff via mail some I need to pay charges on from usa so was not sure what was in the package when I went to the sorting office , so I had to pay to find out what it was, but I will have a look at the link thank you.

Call threm again! Unfortunately, you do often get a Customer Support agent who is not 100% au fait with the rules on here. Sellers are not allowed to leave buyers negative feedack, hence no red negative dot facility, end of !

Call again, try early in the morning more chance of Dublin answering. @flippy2motorcycles

Ebay CS can be hopeless at times. That feedback breaks all the rules and ebay should not only remove it but they will place a black mark on the seller's account for leaving it
in the first place.
