This time it happened to me. PACKLINK and charge for WEIGHT/DIMENSIONS discrepancy. | Payments and Shipping

After doing something like 300 shipments with the ebay spedizioni - packlink service, what has been regularly reported for years on the eBay forum happened to me too, and not only there..... That is, charges (whether justified or not) relating to alleged discrepancies detected by the courier regarding weights and measurements. Having never dealt with this type of issue, I did not take photos of the package on the scale or photos with the tape measure, so I will not be able to contest the charge. The package contained two feet / support bases to keep a 32-inch LED monitor standing. The items weighed 100 ~ 150 grams and the package weighed 0.33 kg. I don't know how it could have ended up weighing 6.4 kg. Besides, I pass by the BRT office by car, so it certainly wouldn't be difficult to stop by the office to understand how a 0.33 kg package ended up weighing 6.4 kg, but packlink wouldn't accept that as proof anyway. If a provincial BRT center were used to tampering with package weights, I would certainly have found discrepancies at regular intervals, but since nothing like that has ever happened, in my opinion there are 2 possibilities: 1) An error during the weighing of the package by BRT2) A differently lawful practice by packlink. A charge of 2.87 euros is not much, but on 5.22 euros it is more than half the cost of the service provided to ship the package. Best regards
