Yeah i understand that but if people try and rip you off, you just make sure you still have the proof of postage, fill out the online form print it out send it out to royalmail then they'll send you a cheque! I didn't actually believe it til they sent me a cheque for £25! Therefore if someone says to you i never got my package simple refund them fill out the online form and then royalmail send you a cheque. Additionally how do you know they were trying to rip you off, as i have had the odd thing here and there lost in the post.

I don't have any record packing lying around as I very rarely buy vinyl anymore. |
That's fair enough about not having many at the minute but when you buy online you're not really paying much for packaging look at chemical records, best company online imo, £2 ish capped postage, but you'd be buying the records anyway if you're buying records know what i mean- it's not like you're buying the mailers too, okay they will add money for packaging but it's not that much, and if you're serious about selling loads of vinyl you can buy mailers in bulk. I bought 100 in bulk on ebay, and then it means the mailers end up costing like 30p each or something.
Your point about printing, that's fair enough i just mean that a marker pen is like what £1-£2 and you can use it zillions of time, or you can just get a piece of paper write the name on it then stick it on the cover (if it's a used mailer). And it is your choice to print, therefore you're the one thats costing yourself more money if you see what i mean.

No offense, but do you not understand why? Or maybe you mis-interpreted my post. You are not allowed to do this, therefore my point was was that you shouldn't include in the price of postage the fact that you're charged ebay/paypal fees. I guess this should be reflected in the actual start price.
I am not questioning your eBay feedback, simply that at the end of the day i feel your rates are too high, i don't want to carry this on debating who is right and who is wrong, simply that your postage prices are too high, full stop! And i don't personally think it's right having high postage costs and low prices as i feel it is misleading, or rather can be misleading for people new to eBay...
