Great news. Ebay drops seller charges!

We've had Laura, the same Evri driver for 10 years plus, she's brilliant. Last year another one appeared. He went AWOL for a couple of hours whilst out on delivery then I received a very neatly resealed empty box instead of a Chris King headset. It was all sorted with insurance moneywise but that didn't get me my nice blue headset. Funnily enough he's not been seen again since and we're back to the lovely Laura.

Most of the
"I know, I'll be a courier,
looks like easy money"
drivers wouldn't know what a headset is.

you were unlucky

Yes, unlucky.
It was apparently in one of those screw together plastic containers Hope use for headsets inside the box. Probably thought he'd got a nice watch or similar. Then thought 'WTF is that?' When actually opened.
Doesn't matter what was in the box, it still should have arrived safely and the speed and ease with not much questioning of the refund makes me think it's fairly commonplace.

I've had a few excess charges applied to my evri account for parcels oversize or overweight.

When I send them the evidence to show otherwise, I get no reply, but the charge vanishes.

I suspect an unscrupulous "contractor" in the chain gets an extra pound every time they check a box for oversize but deliver it anyway.
