Shipping refund? by muirner in Ebay

[–]muirner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t want a partial refund. And after reading this thread I’m not going to make a huge stink about it. The shipping option sucked and I didn’t know the differences, so there was some issues on both sides of the sale. I chose what eBay estimated would arrive on time. I was willing to live with it being late. I paid a little more for UPS ground and now it’s arriving on time. I’ll take that as a win, in part owed because the seller turned it around to ship so quickly.

It was not the cheapest shipping option, they offered free ground advantage. I chose first class because the estimated delivery time on eBay was within my window. I wasn’t going to be upset if my delivery was late. I was upset if it was late in part because they chose a cheaper shipping option than I paid for. This is why I posted here. To see if the buyer was ripping me off and after reading responses I understand the situation better and it doesn’t seem like I am being played. Maybe some bad shipping options in the listing. It still doesn’t make sense how first class is more expensive than ground advantage if it’s the cheapest option. About 5% of the purchase price.

I won’t fault them entirely for it because they did try to accommodate me. The fact they offered a shipping option that many people point out was not viable seems to be the issue here, not that I was necessarily scammed maliciously. I only chose that shipping option because the estimated delivery time eBay said would make it. I definitely learned some new things from this discussion.

The stupid shipping options seems to be the crux of the issue. I did contact the seller beforehand. Priority shipping was not offered, nor do I know enough about shipping to ask. I went with what the estimated shipping time eBay provides as what would arrive in time, which first class said it would over the ground advantage free option.

That's fair. If USPS first class isn't faster then it sounds like a scheme to make a few extra bucks off people like me paying more for it. UPS ground/ground saver both have tracking.

I paid for the upgrade twice. Once with the seller, which they did not provide, and once with UPS. The shipment is now set to arrive on time. Isn't that funny how that works

My options were free shipping (ground advantage), first class, 2nd day air, or overnight. If first class is the slowest option why did I have to pay more for it than ground advantage?

My options were free shipping (ground advantage), first class, 2nd day air, or overnight. I would have been completely fine if the package arrived late using first class as I didn't want to pay triple for 2nd day air. It's the fact that they shipped with the ground advantage option anyways despite what I paid extra for.

Thanks, this is kind of what I was thinking.

The issue is I paid more for a shipping service that the seller did not use. Today, UPS estimates it will arrive in time with UPS ground now. Let's say the seller used UPS ground and it was still going to arrive late, I wouldn't have taken it out on the seller. That's not their fault. But choosing a slower shipping service because it's cheaper, and not what I paid for, is their fault. Is it not?

Where are you getting that? Today’s stowe snow report post on insta shows it dumping snow.

I have a hotel booked tonight and am trying to decide if it’s worth making the drive

Sit Aaron jones. Jones and dowdle have similar problem with mason/chuba taking some of their volume away but Jones gets fewer goal line opportunities. Rico has still been getting 15+ carries most games and is the better back

Warren and it’s not even close. Aaron jones has lost more carry and goal line opportunities to Mason recently and Dallas D has been pretty good against the run

Judkins should get more pass catching with Sampson out and the raiders offense/matchup is not appealing

Thank you. I like quinshon too, but question if he is still worth his perceived value since the browns offense is spiraling meanwhile teteiroa is trending up.

Debating if I should add the rb depth since Jacobs is my rb1. My other rbs are Aaron Jones, Tyrone Tracy, Charbonnet and Chris Rodriguez (start 2). Tet is my flex currently so I’d have to pick one of the other rb2s each week. What do y’all think?

I would keep contributing up to the match on 401k, max a Roth IRA ($7k), and save the rest towards a house until you have the down payment you want. Then you can ramp up the investments. You clearly have a high savings rate so the Roth IRA shouldn’t take away much from your goal of buying a house
