I put 18 DVDs from a single seller in my cart. Great price, I’m honest. He explains that the total shipping cost is 6.90. It would be my 49th purchase on eBay. I’ve always had positive experiences, except for one case where they sent me a cracked case. I’m a collector, and I care about that. He tells me: put everything in the cart, send me the purchase request for the total amount and then I’ll lower the shipping price for you. I ask 3 times what it means to send him the purchase request. The total shipping costs are hefty, it seems to me 37 euros, and I really don’t understand what “purchase request” means. I look for a specific button, I ask politely, it seems strange to have to pay them all. And I ask whether he’ll then refund me, because I’ve never run into anything this strange. I’m someone who pays the agreed amount on the spot, always. I think maybe he doesn’t know how to express himself properly in our language, I ask again. Then I get tired and go ahead and pay because I’m interested in the items. And I end up blocked. I don’t understand how it can be allowed to sell to people so unwilling to explain themselves. After all, we customers are the ones who pay. I was left stunned. Is it possible to open a discussion with eBay to report and/or resolve this???
