I've had this happen twice for the U.K. and 4-5 times for Italy. I had the receipts from the post office that showed I sent it, but it didn't matter to PayPal. I lost every dispute.
On top of losing the dispute and being out the item and shipping charges... I've even had a couple of buyers leave me negative feedback.
I no longer ship to Italy. Disputes from other international buyers are pretty infrequent, so I just refund them and eat the loss.
When it first happened I would get upset, now I shrug it off. It's just a cost of doing business. |
