I don't think the carrier took a guess and slapped a new label on the package. I could maybe see a label coming off ONE package but not two packages on the same route. He's either trying to pull a bait and switch or he orders a lot and forgot he ordered a grabber. I would ask him to take a photo of the shipping label. I had someone who purchased a record label from me claim that he received a jacket, an item that I never owned. I asked him to show me the label on the package and I caught his scheme.

@One-Eyed-Willys-Rich-Stuff Ай бұрын

I would check the tracking to make sure that your golf club has actually been delivered. UPS would’ve noted it if the package was damaged in transit. It’s possible somebody else in the household ordered the grabber or he’s trying to do a switcheroo.

I completely agree that your honesty helps my wife and I keep pushing forward. When we make our own mistakes we so greatly appreciate knowing we aren’t alone. You are genuinely one of our favorite resellers to watch and learn from because you do spin in some positive information along with the reality of how to work through mistakes when they do happen. I’m confident mistakes are in all of our businesses at times it’s just you’re the most real sharing all the steps and shortfalls and you’re so greatly appreciated because of it!

@ChristineS02 Ай бұрын

The return request…did he send you a picture of the shipping label that was on the grabber? I had a customer claim I sent them the wrong item but when they sent me photos, they had opened their NEIGHBOR’S package (mailman put them at the wrong doors). So I saw in her photos that the label was for her neighbor and from QVC.

I think you did the right thing asking him to send you the grabber then refund him after you get it .

@thedailygrind-m70 Ай бұрын

I've had people do that, but when I tell the that is not what I sent and they need to send back what I sent them in order to get a refund, they disappear. They are usually fishing for a refund. Did they show a shipping label ON that package? If not, I'd call BS. Does UPS show a photo of deliveries?

That just happened to me! USPS though. Shipped a hat in a cardboard box. The buyer received a Nordstrom bag with a dress and my label on the bag. I refunded the buyer and currently appealing a claim that the post office initially denied. My first thought is some sort of scam, but who knows.

@DawnPalmer55 Ай бұрын

You can prove that you sent a 4x4x48 box through UPS, because you paid for that size. So if that’s not what they delivered, then they need to refund you!

FAO Schwarz closed down years ago in Orlando, FL I went in with my brother and he bought a couple plush horses for me at a discounted rate since they were closing the store. I still have these horses with tags and most likely will never get rid of them. Giant plushies are awesome, especially rare ones like that fox guard door greeter. 😉

@oncelovedtreasures6136 Ай бұрын

Here in the UK, if someone messaged saying they got a different item than you sent, its usually them trying to scam you. Even if the item they say they received is technically of a similar or higher value, they are hoping you'll refund and tell them to keep the item, or they'll try and force the refund through eBay. Not sure how things work in the US, but that stinks of a scam

@steadfastselectionsrenee5869 Ай бұрын

Dave, I also live on the East Coast in Florida. We are in the Jacksonville area. What I would recommend is that you use PirateShip for a quote & put in a ZIP Code - for example 98101 is one of the ZIP Codes for Seattle, WA. That is about the farthest you could ship from here, not including AK & HI and.see what the shipping is that far and you can put a flat rate in the listing based on the worst case scenario for shipping. Or you just take a little bit off that quote and hope that the person not that far away that buys it. But I think in this case, the flat rate shipping will really help because seeing that the shipping could be up to $300 will scare a lot of buyers.

A couple of years ago I ordered some shipping supplies from an eBay seller. What showed up was 24 cans of flex seal. I contacted the seller and they reached out to UPS. It looks like my original order was damaged during transit so they took the label and put it on the flex seal box and sent it on its way. The seller resent a new order of supplies and then submitted a claim through UPS to get his money back on the first order. In your scenario maybe just refund the customer and then file a claim to get compensation for your original order. It sucks but it does happen.

I had someone message me about a crochet kit that I had listed, she told me she received everything but the instructions, I checked and I hadn't even sold it yet (I still have it) I responded back that she didn't get it from me, I still have mine for sale. She responds back (well can you send me the instructions) lol. I told her no, I was not opening my item and giving her the instructions out of it. I didn't hear from her again.

@absentrobot Ай бұрын

I once had a package sent to me where the label had came off and got stuck to another package. I was very confused when I opened the package to find someones immigration application paperwork. USPS was very confused and didn't want to help saying " but its your name on the label". Eventually another employee came ober and peeled the label back to reveal the original label and took the package back. Never did find out what happened to my original package, but I do think about that person from time to time and hope they got their application approved. 😂

Wardrobe boxes are made of thicker, heavier cardboard than regular boxes which weighs more so much more expensive to ship. 2 large Walmart boxes Frankensteined would weigh much less and do the same job for less money. Thoughts for another day...

This method you can easily get 20-25 an hour if selling similar items. 100 a day in 4-5 hours. This is a way to get to the next level. Not that 100-300k a ayear that everyone seems to get stuck at

I assume you did all your previous career professional work on a computer and not a phone. That alone should tell you the difference from what a decent workstation can do instead of a phone. Your accountant doesn't do your taxes on a phone. Stephen King doesn't write novels on a phone. The more you care about business details the more ludicrous the idea of listing on a phone becomes. I am slowed down at listing if I don't have at least two monitors and really prefer 3.
