What is the sellers id?

U can file Avoidance Fee against the Seller through eBay. It is against ebay policy to lower the buy it now price price but jack up the shipping.

You can also threaten them and say if you don't refund me I will contact eBay.

Leave them negative feedback so you can let other potential buyers know how this seller operates.

I bought fogs from a guy overseas and got them within a week.

Yeah, i dont think you got your fogs from the right guy.....the guy the sells out of Taiwan (which is where i got mine) got my fogs to me for $110 shipped in 2 days. and he has amazing customer service. but yeah, u definitely got ripped on the shipping.

Mines came from Taiwan. I had to go to the post office to get mines too. That was because I wasn't home when they tried to deliver it.

checked the sender last night. Taiwon was the location didn't realize that. still sucks that there at the post office cannot pick them up because they are closed when i get off work.
Talked to my brother last night and he said the post office probably did not even try to attempt to deliver because the package would not fit the dimensions of a mailbox and it would be easier for them to just send the letter instead of taking up room in their mail trucks. Dunno. So has anyone that have had these fogs shipped from Taiwan, what was the shipping time on yours? and was it fed -exed to you or can it even go through fed-ex?

I just shipped a package that was about 1.5lbs, and shipping for UPS ground was $15. I charged the winner of the bid $18, and that covered the box (i ship only in brand new, never used boxes) and the packing material. I feel that was fair since the shipping alone was $15.

well i got my apt's this morning. came in a white box, got home and started opening the box. opened it up and WOW. totally nice. perhaps the nicest set of fogs ive seen. I did not expect the glass lens on them. I am 100% happy with these, so far. I have not installed them yet, they are repacked in the box, with me opening the box at random times and looking at them smiling.

^^ They are very good quality. I have VRDs myself. Luckily I bought them with like 2 specials so I didn't get boned. I payed like 120-140 for the VRDs and got 2 sets of bulbs with them,

I got my apt's from Taiwan also, lol

They are VRD's without the extra bulbs and instructions, but bulbs are cheap and instructions for these are the same as the stock fogs which are all over this site.

love my fogs and they have been holding up great.
