Wow - an eBay first (rant)

I would say it is hard to blame the seller. They may have thought everything was right. Also there was a postage price increase so that could have thrown something off. I would give the seller the benefit of the doubt as I have had more issues with USPS than sellers.

My guess is that a postal employee somewhere along the way thought the postage wasn't correct. Did the seller fudge the weight to keep it under 13 ounces? Or like in my case did it slip through their little size tool they keep at the counter and determine it should not have been sent with tracking? Whatever happened I wouldn't be so quick to blame the seller.

This is what likely happened.

Sometimes the stuff gets through and sometimes it doesn't... It depends if someone catches it or what the postal employee 'thinks'. You never have this problem if you deliver it to the post office, only drop it off with pre-paid.

I would see what the seller has to say...
