What You Need to
Know
A. No refunds /exchanges /credits / holds. No cancellation of
bids / offers / wins. No exceptions.
B. Bidding restrictions? I cant help you with this.
C. Can I get a discount? Everyday low
prices & low margins mean no discounts, volume or otherwise. No price
matching. No offers. Use “Best Offer” where available. I do not respond to any
questions about discounts.
D. If your questions relate to any of the following:
(a) Discounts or deals on either price or
shipping
(b) When is it getting posted?
(c) When do I get tracking?
(d) When will it
arrive?
(e) Is pick up available?
(f) Canceling a bid or a win;
(g) Changing an auction to a BIN; or
(h) I need the item for a function asap.
the
answer is already here & on your Ebay Order page or in your contract with ebay. Please do not message these
questions.
E: Want to end the auction early? If you want to end
an auction early, subject to approval, the auction price increases by
30% of the current value (price & shipping).
How
does this work? I will adjust the listing BEFORE you bid. After you bid, I
will then close the listing early for you assuming ebay allows it. If ebay
rejects the early close, it will not be available, so the earlier you request
this during the life of the listing, the more likely it can be done. Handling
period applies as usual. Refer item K.
F: You've paid! Thank you. There is no need to tell me as the ebay system
discloses this.
G: Shipping is generally by Parcel Post – XS$10, S$12, M$16,
L$20, XL$24 & Flat A4 envelope $10. I do not make money on
shipping. You pay what I pay. If the invoice is more than I paid, I
will give you a refund of the excess after shipping. No untracked options.
H: Change of address: I only ship to your ebay address at the
time the item is won.
I: Combined shipping:
a) If you want combined shipping, please advise which specific
items you want combined. Please do this before the first item
ends. Not doing this means I wont combine shipping.
b) The listings for combined items must end within 7 calendar days of each
other & go to the same address.
J: Combined shipping payment: For combined shipping, do not pay
for the items individually. Wait for the combined invoice.
K: Handling period: Factor in the handling period. Ebay
allows the seller a handling period for every transaction. The item doesn’t
need to be sent until the handling period is over. The handling period starts
when payment is made. The handling period ends at
Your Order system will tell you on which day the handling period ends. My
handling period is usually 2 calendar days after your payment & it excludes
weekends. If you pay on Friday, the item will be due out by end of day on
Tuesday. If you pay on Monday, the item will be due out by end of day on
Wednesday. Public holidays &
weekends are added on to the handling period. Eg: If you pay on
Thursday at
L. When is tracking available? By the due out time. Refer to your Order system. Refer to paragraph K. Please do not ask at
M. Is it sent yet? Go to your Order page. "Yes" if
it’s after the due out time & you see a tracking number. "No" if
the system shows no tracking. Please do not ask for tracking before the due out
time. But if there is no meaningful tracking & it’s after the due out time,
please get in touch and I will help you.
N. What if the parcel seems lost? Please get in touch so I
can initiate a search with Australia Post. Note that Aust Post has a minimum
period before such a search can be initiated.
O. Express Post: Please ask for this BEFORE you bid. I may
not be able to give you this b/c I cant get to the Post Office in time. If it
is possible, I will issue an updated invoice. Do not pay until the invoice
has been updated. Handling period applies as usual.
P. Pick ups: No try ons, no pick ups, no meet ups, no coffee.
Q. Non Payment: Failure to pay is a violation of the
Abusive Buyer Policy. Non payment is reported, no exceptions & ebay will
record a defect on your account. Defects may restrict you ability to bid in the
future.
R. Bid retraction: If you retract a bid & select “Entered
wrong amount”, you also need to enter the correct amount. Without that, ebay
will give you a defect on your account.
S. Faulty? Please arrange a return/full refund through ebay’s
claim system as I do not give discounts for faulty items.
T. Communication: Don’t assume that I have read your message
unless I have specifically responded to it. If you’re late to pay, I may call
you at any reasonable time.
U. Aust Post delays: I cannot influence Aust Post deliveries
once the item is in transit, however, please refer to paragraph N.
V: Pet free / Smoke free / Happy Bidding!
