MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS I always undercharge on postage :- Due to UK Royal Mail s obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little.
Until this year - I had kept them exactly the same since I joined ebay back in 2002.
However this years price increases have been so obscene, that I have had no choice but to increase my postage charges for the first time ever.
However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100 guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out.
Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself.
On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package please check it when you recieve it .
I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference.
THAT IS MY 100 POSTAL GUARANTEE FOR EACH AND EVERY BUYER No buyer EVER deserves to be overcharged on postage - and on my listings, I ll make sure they are ALWAYS undercharged.
Any questions - please ask
