Did you send as 2nd class letter, large letter or small parcel? Large letters & parcels get a delivery confirmation scan (if the postie remembers to scan it)

Not crying about it, asking for opinions.

Dont sell anything you cant afford to lose on Ebay.
if you dont want to pay for tracking and come here and cry about your loss,nothing we can do for you.
Ebay sellers who sell low price items and do not use tracking,usually expect some losses,but make enough to cover it.

Horizon certificate of posting;

Notification or email receipt received after the item has been collected;
Without it how would they even know you had posted the item? You could not bother sending anything and making claims. Quote:

| I've already told you you do not need proof of posting to make a claim, why not simply make a claim and find out for yourself? |

| If you used a stamp then there's nothing you can do, you should buy your postage online instead of using stamps to avoid problems like this. |

| I don't think it'll work if he used stamps, if you use postage purchased online through Royal Mail I believe they can see if the postage has been scanned or not somewhere along the way so that's the reason you get a refund, but with a stamp I don't think they will refund since there's no proof at all that you even mailed something, though I'd give it a try anyway. |

| you can bid on your own auction,and call the buyer if he has not paid,at year end.
There is also escrow service offered by third party,seller has to pay for listing and extra pictures.
FVF was like 5%,you mail a check to Ebay.
Anyone can leave feedback. |

| It will work. I made it clear in my earlier post that they will give you a book of stamps worth a tenner if you cannot provide proof of postage and as I said, this more than covers my losses on cheaper sales. |
