    I was wondering about the photographs, the OP posted and thought that doesn't look like the UK.

    I suspect the OP is in Cyprus?

    They have also left positive feedback on a Laptop that cost £15 to post....

    That kind of neg annoys me.

    Like when I'm buying beads and I see a neg left in feeback with the comment "were smaller than I thought they'd be" and checking the listing it says something like 4mm. - Go buy a ruler - it's not the sellers fault you don't know how to take a measurement! :wall:

    I think most good/sensible buyers are more interested in how a seller replies to any negative feedback, rather than them actually having any.

    I will never shop with sellers that leave nasty replies to negs and neutrals as I wouldn't want to deal with them if anything genuinely did go wrong.
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

    It won't bother the seller - 99.9% and good stars - 1698 transactions.

    Interesting to see that they have sold a few of these items at £49.99 rather than the £44.99 the OP paid!

    All the other buyers happy even though they paid more!

    God forbid the op ever buys off certain tv shopping channels where they charge £7.99 p+p for items that at any stretch of the imagination could never cost more than £1 to send!.

    Also it has to be asked would it be fair to include in the postage costs the time and cost of getting the item to the delivery depot in the first place?. If the item is collected from the sellers propery would there be a collection fee that's not notable or stated on the stamp where the postsge cost is stated?.

    As 1 member said, what was the responce back from the seller when asked about the postage costs?.
