Ebay Delevery

[FarmerPug]

I bought tools off ebay it said economy delevery, the location was listed as London, but do they really take so long to arrive, what are they doing to make it economy?

Usually means Royal Mail Second Class Parcel post and ~4 days to get to me in Cornwall in my experience

[FarmerPug]

its 8 days and i still havent got anything from peterborough to NI, and normally 2nd class doesnt even take this long.

Email the seller and ask if you should start panicking yet.

I get stuff from UK to Colombo, Sri Lanka in this time period

Better to contact the seller as Steve said and ask when the package has been posted if not the payment date

[FarmerPug]

no the delevery estimate is the 8th-10th of august, i paid for it on the 29th of july. Which is a bit of a joke even if it is to Northern Ireland.
Economy delevery should be renamed 'dont give a F**k when you get it delevered'

Don't forget, they don't always post things out that quickly, then you add the post office into the loop.....

Sometimes you will find that the seller might only go down the post office on a friday with a batch.

So you may buy it on 29th July, estimated delivery may be 8th August, but this is because it wasn't sent til the 5th August.

im not doing it again for the sake of £3 id get it off a seller doing 1st class

[FarmerPug]

it arrived id gave up on it coming today after royal mail left so parcel force came with it and asked for a squiggly line. its 1/2" teng sockets but its actually quite heavy which may have slowed things down a bit.
Anyhow i left good feedback "well packaged great item almost next day delevery (;"

[FarmerPug]

ebay feedback can get a bit rediculos with all the aaaaaaaaaaa+++++++ and smiley faces

but did you read the advert right?
when i sell things i say i dispatch within in 8 days so it could be 7 days for me to post then 3 -5 days before you get it.

[FarmerPug]

i read the ad right i knew it was economy delevery but i just didnt like the wait especially considering how long items normally take from the uk to my address.
But here it is:
