Absolute rubbish!... No-one is forcing the seller to post the item!Originally Posted by CrystalPistal
Most that say that do stipulate that they would prefer a face to face,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, it is the buyer who decides to risk the post with "their" goods because they cannot meet the sellers standards
The only thing getting the item in the post is the desire of the seller to obtain a sale.
Many start off preferring a F2F and who could blame them, but when no-one wants to drive over to Middle Dogdirt to collect it - the seller has 2 choices : withdraw the item and maybe try again later or accept an offer including postage.
Either way it's the sellers decision to post and the seller is responsible for the item until its reached the buyer.
This supported by law.
The only exceptions to this would be a clear acceptance in writing BEFOREHAND by the purchaser that any loss or damage would be theirs to bear or if the buyer arranged their own collection.
