I don't understand why in this situation you can't keep both the shoes and the money. He was the idiot that gifted them back.

I had a guy send me back a jacket because he said it did not fit, and he was going to throw it away otherwise. He returned it to me, and never wanted a refund of item or shipping...
Resold it for 70$ the second time, and 50$ the first time...

i had a guy (another billionaire) bought 5 pairs of rl rugby slippers 350 each, a few days later i got a few more in and messaged him that i have more in his size, his reply: he ordered the wrong size the first time and gave away all 5 pairs but if i get his size hell be more than happy to buy again. love those customers!

+1. If you don't have a scale, get one. You put the weight in the listing and use the calculated international shipping. It takes the guesswork out of the equation. When it comes to international shipping, guessing is your worst enemy. A few ounces can mean a difference of several dollars.
I was wondering about this the other day. What's to stop you from underestimating the weight of everything (aside from a conscience, of course)? I remember before I got a precise scale I did exactly that, and nothing happened. Based on my imprecise scale, the package was somewhere between 3 and 4 lbs. The difference of 1lb was like $17 international. I chose 3 and printed the postage, sent it off, and buyer got his package just fine. If you're close do they just let it slide or something?

They randomly weigh stuff. Depends on the particular post office how lenient they are. 3lb to 3lb 15oz is same price domestic, so you did nothing wrong. If caught, it will either be delivered with postage due or kicked back to you. Both bode poorly for your feedback.

Anyone know how to get rid of the last name ( ink ) Dry Cleaners write on the label of the tag?

I don't want to use nail remover and have the ink bleed onto the shirt.

It seems to me that less then half the buyers bother to leave feedback. Do you send a follow up or is that asking for trouble? I mean in a situation where you have no reason to think there is a problem.

I personally do, but there are a few differnt ways to do it. I am still at about 50% leaving feedback... that just means he sold close to 5000 items!
