Quote: Yeah, it happens. I ordered 2 Sebastopol eggs & got FIVE! I was thrilled! Until the seller told me they were laying around the farm for (she's not sure how long) so she put them in with the fresh ones. I put them ALL in the incubator--because the fresh vs old/who knows were not marked...

True...but still....now I feel as though I'm stuck. This guy could ignore me until May & then leave me horrible feedback! So now I'm thinking--do I leave him feedback, first--neutral & hope he the same? OR...do I just bare down & leave him negative while I can & prepare for me to get negative...

Quote: GRRRRR! Well....I've been tempted to leave him negative, although my husband says I should just leave him positive (ie. he paid quickly, good communication, etc).

Quote: Yeah, probably....:thun

Quote: ME? Or the other poster? You Your thread was kinda hijacked I know. LOL Anyway--I called the post office on Saturday & the dude said that if it was a flat rate box, then it was a flat rate box. When I contacted the seller & told him this & asked again for a post office receipt...

Quote: ME? Or the other poster?

Quote: I would email them, first & let them respond. They may offer you free eggs (if you pay shipping).... If they are defensive or rude--leave neutral & just say why on there...that way, other buyers can be aware of the possibility of receiving broken eggs. I would just put neutral & then...

Quote: Yeah--originally I was just going to refund him his precious $1.90 (the random amount he said he was charged for the flat rate box)...and nothing more. Then, I was going to ship him a few more eggs for free (at my cost). But I'm glad I came on here & started asking questions....I would...

Quote: I would contact the seller before you do anything. You don't have to be confrontional or mad about--I'd just be very polite (kill em with kindness) and just say something like: "I received your eggs today. I was sad to see that 4 out of the 12 were broken during shipment. I just...

Quote: Kristi-- Yeah, I have received a few broken eggs, too...but I just let the seller know, I don't demand my money back or more eggs. I just bite my tongue & hope the remaining eggs hatch. I've been pretty lucky that I always get an extra egg or two in my shipments, which usually makes up...

Quote: Nope. I made my little notes (the "FRAGILE HATCHING EGGS, DO NOT X-RAY, etc) notes in strips. So I didn't cover anything. Plus, I used the USPS website & it said "Priority Flat Rate" right on the shipping info sticker.

Quote: I wouldn't think he left for the weekend where he has eggs in the bator. So, I would think you're right on his wanting free eggs. If RubberChickenLubber is correct, I don't use Ebay so I have no clue, you would think he would be quick to post a neg feedback. Makes you wonder why no...

Okay--so I called the post office in OH this morning & the guy admitted he was "new to this" and wasn't able to look up any transactions from last Wednesday. He did assure me that if it was a flat rate box & it was not over 70lbs, there is no way the dude would have been charged for it.... To...

asher-- Thanks. Yeah, well--it was an eBay auction & the shipping is right there in black & white. I have been charging $13.00 for a while now. That barely covers the bubble wrap, shipping tape & my 40 mile round trip to the post office! I'm calling them in the morning... So we'll see.....

Tell me about it!

Okay--so I was unable to find my calling card, afterall to call the post office in Ohio. But they're open tomorrow, so I'm calling first thing in the morning! Oh & I've still not received any reply from the buyer.

STILL nothing......no response from him.....

Quote: Yeah....

Yes, I'm going to wait until court in 10 minutes & then bust out a calling card!

Quote: Well, I'm West Coast (PST) and he's Eastern in OH, I believe? So it would have been like 3pm his time, noon my time when he called..... I'm thinking that is the case, too. There are sellers with Muscovy eggs on eBay, besides me...I'm going to look at his recent purchases through eBay &...
