certificate of posting. It does happen

postage receipt and i asked them to scan it and let me see it, but still
waiting 1 month later, hence the warning,if id seen proof id av put it down
to bad luck,however,thats not the case,...and no better place to let the
fishing buyers know a little of the possible outcomes of buying of a
reported seller, that being "big_cod" whos his next bait going to be? S

I regularly use Ebay both as a buyer and seller.I have experienced this
problem from both sides of the arguement.

But have found that it is usually the Post Office system which is to
blame.When problems do occur its usually late deliveries,or wrong
addresses.Occasionally items have gone missing (lost or stolen).

Ebay does have some dodgy sellers,although you should check feedback ratings
before bidding.If not happy,don't bid.
