posting- would you?

[mel1981]

Advice please!
someone has just emailed me saying theyve bid on an item (only 99p) and they live in germany, but they would like me to deliver to a relative in wales if they win. Would you do this?

I have had a seller post an item to sctoland for me as it was a present and seemed silly ot pay to post to me and then pay to post to scotland.

Sorry about spelling

yeah thats fair enough, I think it mite be a similar reason for my buyer. But am I at risk of them saying it wasnt received or anything and me ending up out of pocket? I know its not much money involved.

Your proof of postage will be to the wrong address for Paypal purposes so they will be able to claim non-receipt.

However, for 99p, I don;t think anyone would be that silly would they?

true lol! surely they would pick something more expensive.

I would have thought so.

(remember to calculate your potential out of pocket costs including postage though, if it is a 99p item but £10 postage then you could lose quite a lot IYSWIM)

yeah, thanks for the advice kingcanute.

Yes, I do this a lot as I live in Australia - but I ask first if it is OK. Also I buy things from American e-aby and ask if they will send it to my mother-in -law who lives there. Then she sends things on to me.
