Seller sent wrong item! After contacting him through catawiki messages, he promised to send the right item the next day. This item never arrived and further messages to the seller remained unanswered!

I won the auction for 5 euros, but the shipping cost is 25 euros, and I was also asked to pay 9.8 euros of import fee at customs. This is very unreasonable.
