I'm not so sure. Signed delivery and insurance protect the seller, not the buyer.
So he's gone without the benefit, taken the chance and pocketed the difference.

And had it gone tits up, do you think that he'd be honouring the op with a refund? I'm not so sure.

If the buyer had used PayPal, he wouldn't have a say in it

Could be worse.

I quite fancied a pair of wider bars for my tourer re-build, only to find someone had taken three of them!


Once ive found which bar i like , ill sell the other 2 sets of bars at a vast profit to get my £12 back 🙂
Wanna buy some new bell laps ? .. £40 to you ?
Your lucky as i almost had all 5 pairs !
First come and all that 🙂

Surely that alone seemed suspicious? I'd have offered to pay by PayPal and cover fees, if he wasn't happy i'd have walked away.

If he's self insuring with a £12 premium paid by the OP then he's only got to find an extra £6 over the amount the insurance would have paid. So personally, I'd say makes no difference to the chances of him paying up in the event of a lost package.

I'd be pretty miffed if that happened to me just through the sheer dishonesty of it. As far as I can see you were sold and paid for service A and received service B. I can't understand how it can be viewed any other way!

I may even be miffed enough to post a warning on every for sale or wanted post of theirs from now on......
