problem with german EBay

**macklin** · 7th August 2011, 01:49 PM

Long story will try to keep short.

I was part way through buying an article on the German EBay, when i got the following message " Seller has not provided postage information", I tried asking the seller for this info but apparently his English is not good.

I tried logging onto Pay Pal and paying through his email account but was not too sure how to progress, as I got the same answer as above postage not provided and was returned to Ebay.

I really do want this article as it is very very hard to find. I have sent 5 emails to the seller ( who has 100% and very good feed back, all german.)
The last email I got was as follows which I am assuming he means
experimenting with the postage cost.

"hi john is now the new me, well then do not experiment with 8 ? 4.30 ? then it should work".

I cannot really understand what he is trying to say.

Perhaps someone can help so i can pay for this article without any further dramas, either through Ebay or PayPal, if someone can help could you walk me through it as I am completely new at this

Thank You

Maybe you should try and communicate with him in German. If you go to the Google website and click on language you can type in a message and have it translated to another language. Then you could just copy it and paste it in a message to the seller. You can also do it in reverse, with a message that you have received that is written in German, you can copy it into the translation thing on Google and it will translate it back to English for you. It was just a thought. Might work.

OK, thank you

I did as you said and the translation was comical, almost as bad/good as his email to me, I really am beginning to get the idea I am never going to get this article.

Anyway Thanks

Thank you

1 In google type EBay then go to germany

2 In German Ebay type in super nintendo pro action replay mk 3 ovp

3 Then where it says we have found similar items go further down and It has article 1 7 3 2 descending, pick where it has 2 articles and they should have one for 39.99 and 49.99 EUR either one will do.

Thanks

A little bit hard to do it that way John, I came up with nothing, could you provide the web address for the product?

I do this:

Go to: Google Translate

Type or paste in the website address into the area provided.

That should give you more of a clue.

Hope this helps,

-Scott.

I am having great difficulty in finding the web site, I found one in to day favourites but it kept dissapearing when i tried to copy it. Can you suggest an easier way

Thanks

OK, Its ebay.de item 320724269339 (one of them). I did the translate with google but It looks like he only ships to europe. I'm still not sure of your problem, Send them a message and ask if they will ship to australia. If you have a bood enough ebay record they shouldn't mine unless they have been burnt.

**macklin** · 7th August 2011, 07:13 PM

Thanks for your reply the problem is I keep getting seller has not provided postage information, which indicates your post about postage only europe.
I have sent an email asking if he can send to Aust.

Thank you
