I can't see a parcel that's going out the country getting returned and coming back to the sender in a week, doesn't add up
Great that JB is helping, what a man
I know what it's like if you are short on money and often go spend money from something I sold, then something goes wrong and they want to return and refund, can be a nightmare, but you don't start selling something again you have told a buyer has been posted. If it was shipped and returned and your on the breadline
It doesn't help if you have send it and a mistake was made with address etc, but to me it was never posted as it won't be returned that quick. I've even sent a stereo to Mexico, she paid like £400 for it, then another £200 for shipping, the address she gave couldn't be shipped too, it was like a PO BOX type I think, Parcel Force asked me to get another address, she was cool as owt, never questioned where it was, I got another address and passed to Parcel Force and forwarded on and delivered ok, that shows how hard they try to sort it with out just returning, only Russia a problem so far.
I've sent stereo system to Russia and it gets stopped at customs and then returned, they are a nightmare, but it was months before return. I already paid more than original shipping quote, lucky I had made enough on the item to cover it and still be in profit by a lot, but when it gets returned it got complicated. I wasn't paying out another £70 to ship it and the same happen again, I hadn't got the money by that time to refund and I would also have to take off the orginal postage price I lost of £70 so he wouldn't get more than half back with fees etc, it wasn't my fault their Customs has gone crackers or the buyers fault
We finally agreed to ship to someone he knows in London, so I shipped again for Free to that address, he was out of the claim time limit so couldn't open case that it's not arrived.
I Certainly never want to keep any ones money and item.
Which is why with cases like this, I would happily post things on to buyers in other countries if they can't get the seller to ship, or like this it helps people out, don't want any money for doing it just the money it costs to ship, end of the day it will cost the buyer about £10 more for shipping to someone in UK to forward on
Suppose it's possible if the label has come off early, but you put on a label yourself and they put labels on also, so that wouldn't happen really
