Paypal and postage

[~Kim~]

OK so I've had some shocking baby brain moments this week
I listed a heap of stuff on ebay, and most of it sold - YAY, but I forgot to offer an insurance option and osme of the people have paid by paypal.
Should I register their packages? None of them have asked for it to be registered.

Would it put you much out of pocket?

I probably would just because if they claim they "never received" the item they can request a refund from paypal, i think a BB member had that happen to them recently and it was a lot of money...

[~Kim~]

yeah I wasthinking I would..

It doesn't cost all that much extra to register does it? I can't remember how much it is now. It would be well worth it even if you do end up a little out of pocket just so you don't get stung.

Just thought I'd reply even though this is a week old, but it costs $2.80 to register a parcel (on top of post and parcel charges)

thank Leasha I did register the higher valued ones.

good idea

I just sent items today too and was very frustrated with ebays postage calculations! im out of pocket $10

I've found that the Australia Post website calculations are really accurate, if that helps for next time.

Good idea thanks for that - can you tell me can you just add your own price in the section for postage?

[Indadhanu]

Yep, you just type it in the space. Some sections have maximum post limits unless you use their post calculator with weights etc.
