... never heard of the manufacturer before.

Sovereign had the first known contract for the B-10, and A-9 trousers.

Also made the B-11 jacket, with A-10 trousers, and A-11A trousers.

Sovereign also had one B-3 contract with 1943 fiscal year date.

Well...to cut a long story short, I sold it to a US buyer. He paypal'd pronto and I posted the jacket. About a week later he leaves me feedback " Fast delivery, great seller" the usual. About a week after that I binned the slip with the tracking number on it. Another few weeks later he contacted me, "where's my jacket ?" Of course I replied along the lines of " You've left feedback, you've got the jacket". He replied that he left the feedback in error and he had not recieved it. He then started a dispute with paypal and they sided with him stating that feedback is no proof of delivery. Of course I could not produce a tracking number so they stung me for the full amount plus postage. I'm down one B-11 plus £75. The buyer is no longer a registered user with ebay. I hope he and paypal rot in Hell. I've still got his address though...... :twisted:

That pi**es me off .... so when he'd tried it enough times, eBay NARU'd him.

You have to think that anyone that can't leave feedback correctly, is also too stupid to be receiving mail.

You don't have to use eBay for too long before you run into people who don't read listings, can't understand 'em when they do, can barely write legible English (I'm not talking about about those for whom it's a second language) etc. Yet they seem to know all the scams!

Here's what I do after being stung a couple of times: After you ship item Email the buyer:

"Thanks for buying my blah, blah blah. Shipping this date blah, blah, blah. Tracking number is blah, blah, blah, blah, blah..."

Send the message through Ebay. This way the note is stored in your "Sent folder" for a couple of months along with the tracking # contained within. This way if buyer acts up you can find tracking again quickly without having to go through a massive stack of shipping forms. Amazing last few years since I started taking this measure not one package has been "lost in the post". :!: :!: :!:
