Will ship to Worldwide.

I get an email saying:

I want to pay for this, but want it sent via usps with just stamps. Please re-invoice. Rick

I clearly stated my shipping policies in the auction. If he keeps complaining and doesn't pay my shipping, what are my options as far as getting a neg in return for filing a DNP?

I would invoice an extra $15 for my time to have to go to a post office and buy stamps.

Do what rudder said. Add a massive handling charge to the new invoice for "custom shipping" leaving him at a net loss. :p Seriously, he agreed to the previous terms so he's just being an ass here.

What the hell does he care if it's paid for with stamps or by just going to the PO and shipping the thing?

Should have just told him it wasn't an option.

If you buy something at amazon or buy.com you can't tell them to "just put some stamps on it".

Man people on EBAY ARE DO DENSE.

It's like WTF READ the DAM LISTING! Bid and AGREE to those terms and conditions!

Good luck with having the auction go through smoothly.
