    Me too - it's not even the listing etc, it's waiting for the payment and then panicking to get everything in the post in time.

    I got really put off ebay when someone left me negative feedback saying that I hadn't packaged the item adequately, even though, by their own admission it had arrived unbroken and in perfect condition! So how could it have been packaged inadequately?! :mad:

    that's what I worry about. you had obviously done everything you could in this instance or it would have arrived broken/damaged. some people just like being picky. and it can be very hard to make up for one stupid negative remark

    Beccie that's pants - I send my stuff wrapped in bin liners and bubble wrap, goodness only knows what they would say to me (bear in mind I send clothes mainly so need the packaging to be water tight). I can't afford those packaging envelopes - have you seen the price on them?!
