REGARDING Royal Mail double standards.

After purchasing a tall stool on eBay, the item failed to arrive in the time stated. I contacted the seller, who had packed the stool and taken it to the post office, who said it was over the limit size to send in the mail.

So he left it there and checked on the Royal Mail website, which showed it was just within the limits of size. He returned to the post office, who said they had sent it back to him. Strange they could do that after saying the parcel was oversize.
