Has any seller experienced this?

leatherman · Aug 11, 2011

Has any seller ever sent a $250+ card to someone, used SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION (or INSURANCE), and had the buyer complain when they USPS leaves a Pink Slip in their box, forcing the buyer to go to the PO and deal with the USPS and present ID?

It has never happened to me, but it's going to happen to someone. Just wondering if it ever happened to anyone here. What would ebay do with such a complaint if they left negative feedback?

Funny..I just had to go to the PO. I was worried because a slip was left on August 6. I signed it and left on my door, saying they could leave it. Four days passed without the card showing up. I was worried, but went to the PO today and they had it. I had no problem going. It was actually nice of the seller to cover insurance + sig conf. costs.

not yet, but have had a package sit at the PO because a buyer said they never got the pink slip.

Had to do some of my own research and call the branch and ask if the package was there.

I had a buyer send me a message complaining slightly. He was upset that he didnt get card that day, and he had to go to the PO on his lunch the next day, and blah blah blah.

Thankfully it wasnt Ebay because he probably would have left neg feedback for nothing. He didnt like that mailed the safest way possible for a 1957 Topps Mantle. Sorry that I take care with expensive items. What a **** cutter!

I am 100% sure that ebay would take your side if a case like this leads to a negative. How could this be your fault?

jumbojohnny · Aug 11, 2011

There is no fault, but then again sellers dont have to be honest in the feedback they leave. Its just as easy to say something like slow shipping, not as described, or any other off the list of crap reasons buyers leave negative feedback. Some people are a**holes, simple as that.

I hate getting the pink slips. One of my holy grail cards is sitting in the PO right now but I can't get it till Saturday. They need to stay open late just for me.

The worst is when their idiot postman only has them sign for the insurance and not the signature confirmation because he assumes one signature is good enough.

Never had anyone complain, and it never bothered me when I had to go to the PO. I mean, its sort of a pain but Id rather know that its being tracked and accounted for.

On my end as a seller, I don't really care that someone would complain. Ill take a neg on my dsr long before I would want to refund someone $250 plus and be out an expensive card.

Of course telling the person ahead of time helps too.
