    Last month I purchased 3 motorcycle items from an ebay powerseller with excellent feedback. Recieved two products quickly and left good feedback so all good.

    The third item was a Caberg Motorcycle Helmet. Cost me 89 pounds sterling so it's not a cheap product by any means.
    It's the done thing to purchase helmets over the internet as in the UK they are VAT exempt as it is personal protection equipment.

    After three weeks I emailed about the delay and the seller promised to resend it as the courier lost the helmet.
    Today the courier showed up with both helmets and I signed for them.

    Great: 2 helmets for the price of one.:)
    Am I under an obligation to inform the seller? I'm not paying postage out my own pocket to send it back. What do people usually do?

    I would have told the courier there and then. It is probably the courier's fault and they should foot the bill of returning it, this way they have it in hand and would have been easier.

    I got the same from play once and just kept it, couldnt be arsed messing around with a €5 dvd, but that guy is making a living out of stuff that price though he probably got it back on insurance.

    No way you should pay any postage.
