    Well I am far too soft, just got a message saying that thier business had gone bust etc etc so I told them to forget about it, they may have been fibbing but were very polite so I was inclined to believe them.

    There's nothing in that message that indicates feedback extortion to be fair, and as it's a message to seller and not a feedback comment, they can't have it removed. Indeed a buyer can be factual stating in the feedback they leave that they were charged £8 postage for a single parcel that cost £2.20

    All the seller says to ebay is that a buyer demanded the items cheaper and then left negative feedback when they declined.

    A play with words - but still a fact and classed by ebay as feedback extorsion.

    As i said - tried and tested.

    Too soft or too nice? Anyone who says "oopsie on my part" is a star in my book. You've made me giggle a few times reading that :D

    Check out if they are still selling. Maybe their high postage as brought them down. That would be ironic lol.
