Okay cheers for that, bit confused actually ??!! are royal mail / parcelforce not the same, just that one deals with letters and one parcels or does royal mail handle parcels as well ??!!

thanks again

bpm1588

no they are two differant firms...royalmail do mail parcels but they have more weight and size limits,plus after you reach a certain weight parcelforce gets cheaper to use

Okay guys, had a parcel sent to me last monday, is now a week later and nothing received, parcel was sent out by royal mail " standard parcels " which is advertised as a 3-5 day service.

kinda thought the parcel would have arrived by now, still a chance ??? the item was posted from london and I am located up here in fife in scotland so hardly a good excuse for the length off time to deliver / or not deliver as the case may be ??!!!

anyone ??

Okay thanks guys yep ebay purchase, guy had over 500 feedbacks and all 100% so no real reason to not trust that it was not actually sent.

he has a receipt off postage and the item was insured, was paid for by paypal, what now ??

David Lock

If it was insured then it's possible it has a reference number on the ticket and it is a tracked item. With this reference number you can phone or go to website and see what's happened to it. I'd leave it for a couple of days. dl

Have actually done that before when another parcel dissapeared with this lot !!! the only thing it confirms if the parcel has been delivered or not, so not a lot off help really is it ??!!

David Lock

The ticket will also confirm when it was posted which can be useful to determine if poster was bull****ting or not about when it was posted.

give it till tuesday if nothing received starta claim through paypal, paypal protects buyers and dont give a **** about the sellers, if you start a claim you will win and get your money back, thats if the seller has the funds in there paypal account that is

Okay thanks for that I take it you mean in there actual bank account where the money is originaly taken from rather than just funds that are actually being held in your actual paypal account - say money received etc ??

Anyone confirm re. the paypal account ??

bpm1588

i would'nt worry to much,if the guys got good feedback im sure he will sort things out....allways better to sort things out with a seller first before making a claim with paypal,once you start it can and would most likely take forever to sort out...paypal is last resort.

in my experience with paypal they seem to be the bigest crooks,never mind the e-bay scammers.....if he's got good feedback and you've allready said the item is insured dont worry!
