Great, sold one of my more expensive items. Drat, newbie (5 FB) buyer, by eCheque and unconfirmed address (so no seller protection). Am I within my rights to refuse to post to an unconfirmed address, if I can't get them to get it confirmed? *sigh* I hate eCheques too - should be banned. :(

Feedback nagging
I'm usually quite laid back about most of the things that annoy many eBay buyers, including chase-ups for feedback from sellers, but methinks this is getting a bit much for a single week! A message 1 - 2 days after arrival of the item "item was delivered so please leave feedback." A feedback chase-up from a different…
