    Royal Mail will compensate if you have a proof of posting and submit the necessary documents to them. For first and second class mail you are insured up to £46.

    I'm quite surprised you are doing this. After a tiresome experience you just want to forget about it but I wonder if you have reconsidered? I think I would want to leave feedback not the least so I could mark down their stars.

    I wasn't sure what to leave to be honest. A positive obviously, but should I reflect the 'slip' in dates and the postage delay in the stars even though i have not raised it with them? I just tried to act fair and not give way to my annoyance and as I have not specifically contacted them about the postage delay issue I wasn't sure if it was fair to leave the 3* I was intending .

    I might change my mind though after I dwell on it for a few more days although looking at their stars if i do leave poor ones in any category I could well wipe them out as they are already on very dodgy grounds.

    I think all these Easter chocolates and a few good bargains at auction in the past few days are mellowing me :eek:

    looks like there is a lot you need to learn before you start giving 'advice' to experienced ebayers, or at least check that what you say is correct.
