was looking for some rattles for dd2 on ebay today. found someone selling about 10 little items for £1.95 'buy it now' price. on the first page (where you see all the little gallery pics) it said p&p FREE. I went ahead and bought them straight away. but whe i came to pay i noticed it specified 'postage- pick-up in person only'. where it had 'other options' for postage it said '£6' 1st class royal mail!!!!
Bugger me, i'm not paying £6 postage for a few plastic toys!!! I didn't pay and i emailed the seller saying sorry i'd made a mistake and i wasn't prepared to pay £6 postage as I couldn't pick up in person. Haven't had a reply yet - but she sent an invoice. I've noticed on other items that it will specify 'pick up only' on the first page which seems fair enough, but this seller had said it was 'free' anbd that's just not true, it's NOT free.
So yes i was stupid not to read it more carfeully on the next page but i feel she's in the wrong for the way she advertised it. If she gets arsey with me, what's my come-back?
