An item I purchased at the beginning of December was sent by Royal Mail to a local newsgent/parcel shop I selected. I had a tracking number from Royal Mail and called at the shop to collect. What I didn't have was a bar code to show the shop owner so he wouldn't release the package to me.
I had already checked my email messages (including the spam folder) carefully but couldn't see any message which provided the bar code for the item. I've bought a large number of items from eBay over several years and not had this situation.
I've requested a bar code be re-sent by eBay as the seller says it's up to me to do this and not him.
Anyone else had this happen before and is the seller correct?
