* overseas eBayer buys $100+ item
* we ship it USPS registered and declare commercial value (as required by law)
* buyer receives duties form from customs office and refuses delivery (despite eBay and listing policy that duties are responsibility of buyer)
* buyer files item not received dispute
* tracking number and explanation provided to PayPal
* PayPal sits on case just long enough so eBay final value fees can no longer be refunded
* item didn't technically get delivered so PayPal issues full refund
* we're out $13+ to ship it and $13+ FV fees and now have to ask a monopolistic bureaucracy spanning two countries to find and return the item
Are we **bleep** or what?
