I sold a high value watch to somebody on eBay recently. The buyer is in Chile.
Postage ended up costing £150 in order to make sure it is insured for the correct amount. I underestimated the postage costs so I actually covered some of it.
Buyer is kicking off because he's got a $600 import tax bill and accusing me of being reckless for declaring it's true value.
FFS. The parcel travelled from Stansted to Memphis to Brazil to Argentina to Santiago before being handed off to a third party for delivery. As if there was a chance in hell that I wasn't going to insure/declare for the full amount 🤔
