I know there have been one or two similar threads to this recently, but was wondering if any ebay sellers had any advice for this situation. On Monday I bought an item (Buy It Now) for £35, and postage was listed as free. There was a revision in the listing relating to postage that I noticed before I bought it but I thought nothing of it.
So I paid for the item immediately through PayPal, and then the next day received an email from the seller saying that they had made a mistake, and postage was actually £25, so either pay up or 'cancel' the purchase and my money would be refunded. I emailed back and said I was very disappointed, but I understand that mistakes can happen, so I'll pay half postage as a gesture of good will. They have since emailed back and the message just says 'give me your bank details and I will refund your money' which I think is odd, surely I don't need to give bank details when they have my PayPal details? I've said as much in an email on Wednesday, but I have heard nothing else, and no refund has been given as yet.
Am I being paranoid, or is this weird?
