  Argh. Delivery to southern Ireland gone awry         


Author:
Date: Jun 8, 2010 12:58

I don't know why, but deliveries to the Republic cause me more grief
than any other form of international shipping, with the exception of
the US, which is why I don't sell to Americans any more.

Anyway, three items with a total value of over £240 sold on 21 May,
paid three days later, despatched on the 26th recorded, insured and
signed-for and I've just received a phone call from an Irish courier
firm saying they can't deliver because they can't get near the block
(locked behind steel gates or something).

First thought - it's taken a bloody long time, so why didn't the buyer
start asking where the items were.

Anyway, the courier has asked for a phone number for the buyer, which
I have, and I've sent him an email as well and... nothing.

What's the betting the items are going to find their way back to me?
And a PayPal clawback?

Well it still counts towards the number next to your star , and a lot of
buyers just glance that way before purchasing , so it does have a little
benefit.
Some people do seem to see getting the feedback as more important than ...

If he is happy to accept a refund then I'd be inclined to go for it.
