Taking money off someone and getting them to pay postage then not using that money to post said item is scamming regardless of how many people can vouch for you

yeah mate, u cant use someone elses money to pay off your paypal debts, you should only be offering sales if u can commit to each and every transaction.

for the sake of £2.50....it aint exactly a bank busting sum of money, go 1 day without lunch and thats it sent lol

What happens if he needed the glass for his mot. I wouldn't be happy with someone saying sorry I cant afford to post it. Everyone has problems so the seller shouldn't be passing it on to others! 2 months is a joke! How the hell cant the seller afford about 2.50 to post something in 2 months, its less than a pint ffs
