    If they refund you, then just leave them negative feedback saying they wanted more for postage and refused to send it.

    DO NOT accept a mutual cancellation!
    Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
    Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    If I've underestimated it, then I just take it on the chin. If I overestimated then I refund the excess to the buyer with a polite note.

    How does this effect any dispute that may be opened on the case?

    Don't forget that as a buyer you also have the option of leaving negative feedback for this seller. The seller cannot leave you negative feedback in return.

    Well, if so many sellers hadn't kept on giving retaliatory negative feedback, they wouldn't have changed it
    One important thing to remember is that when you get to the end of this sentence, you'll realise it's just my sig.

    Same as others. I have sold stuff and made mistakes with postage so just take it on the chin. I would never go back to ask for a further payment however much I was out.

    But it really is a complete one way street. Some buyers are really bad and don't live up to their obligations, and yet there is NOTHING you can do about it if you are a seller.
