Simply put, I purchased and paid for an order.
It did not arrive.
I was not compensated for this loss, either in replacement or returned funds.
Despite Universal Postal Union rules stating the ownership of the parcel remains with the sender until successfully delivered and a government department validating this from an independent review, he refused to accept liability or reasonably pursue compensation from his end, upon behalf of his customer.
I am bitterly disappointed with this experience, as I've only read positive reviews of his service online and why I took an order to him, rather than his competition.
While this is not a favourable review, it still affords Phil the chance to amend his business practices to improve his service to others, to which, I hope he does take note and ensures this issue does not occur for other international customers in the future.
I do hope that he takes ownership of this finally and does so, as we all can only benefit from such positive actions.
