Is there anything in rules about

posting items once sold or is this entirely between the buyer/seller? I know you can't force anything so just wondered if there was anything more like giving advice or aomething? (if this makes sense)

Reason being i buy quite a few bits off here & bar a couple of sellers who are fab (honey08 & arcanegirl to mention just a couple), Im beginning to find certain people take your payment then they tell you they cant post for a week or 2, Or there are people who take your money & then 2/3 wks later you still haven't recieved anything or any word from the seller until you start pestering.

I don't see why they cant be polite before the sale & say can't post til xyz day or even if you paid why they cant just drop you a " sorry " pm .

I understand the forum can't do much i just wondered if you could add something to the rules maybe about posting within 7days or something??

Thanks xx

They should start up a feedback thread or something like on ebay and amazon. Then you would know which ones are reliable and which ones to avoid!

I dont think there is I always post with the week ...while the snow was here i waited to go to the town to post as our post office was hit n miss to wether they had the post collected x

Oh i know hun when its weather problems like just lately then that's totally understandable i just meant in general .
Certainly don't expect anyone to go risking their lives to post something lol

Not really much you can do other than asking member when your doing a deal when they plan to send before making a payment? We'd be dealing with complaints all the time but the guidelines do state you trade at your own risk.

I sold a couple of things recently myself and only 2/3 left within a couple of days Id lost the bumbo tray haha put it somewhere safe so safe I couldn't find it then I missed the post office but as she didn't need it straight away she was very understanding. Contact if theres a problem should be made its only polite and most times you find the buyer more than understanding.
