If it comes to cutting losses, I would rathe not post it and send the cash back, I had the item at £8.99 and I accepted the offer of £7.00 as I thought it would be an easy sale with them being quite local etc.

So to drop £1.99 off the price is enough already, to then give them another 12% discount, due to them not sending enough money is not acceptable. I would rather relist it.

I am basically giving them 3 options now.
1, pay the rest
2, collect the item
3, cancel the transaction and I send the money back.

It may seem like a hard line to take, but I am don't feel I am out of order, as said it has taken over 2 weeks to get this far and I just feel I am being messed about now.

Either one of these solutions is acceptable. They wouldn't get away with under-paying in a shop so why should they just because it's ebay.

I'd send it and BBL them, but I'm a soft touch.

put it in the post box with no stamp or anything and they will have to pay the postage, plus an extra £1. if they didnt give you postage money, and they expect you to post it, then send it and make them pay the postage costs at their end, plus an extra £1 for royal mail!
what made me think of this was the underpaid letter i had to go and collect today for my other half- a recipt from paying his debt off, but they hadnt put a stamp on it so were expecting us to pay for it. naturally, i told the post office to send it back to them, and i will be calling to moan tomorrow!
good luck

I would be careful about sending it with no postage - if they don't accept it then you'll have a non-received item to deal with too.
In fact, I would make a point of sending it signed for to make sure that they don't "forget" that they've received it!

I would just check if I am going anywhere near there house, drop it off and see if it is a adult or some kid and ask for the "postage" and say that was for your petrol lmao.

If not, then just post it. I would. Like others said I am sure I have lost enough £1 coins in my life.

I don't normally advocate this but in the circumstances but I think I would just post it out. I think there is going to be potentially huge hassle with this, especially if they are perhaps not with the programme. How much time and effort is going to be required to sort it out otherwise.

Who sends cash through the post nowdays?

you would be surprised
once had a guy in kicking up hell as the £100 his mum sends him every week hadnt turned up next day as usual
sent normal post...................

Maybe you would have received the same if he paid through Paypal and then they deducted their charges? If so, I would let it go.
