    Ignore the bickering.

    Ask yourself if you want to:

    Pack the item.....
    Stay in all day and wait for a courier who may not show....
    Lose the seller protection eBay and Paypal give....
    Pay the buyer when the courier loses the item....
    Pay the buyer when the courier breaks the item....

    Precisely - this item was marked as Collection in person (not courier). I think I will just cancel the whole transaction and get it taken to a charity shop - I'm fed up with people calling me "mate" and "love"! I'm a retired female who cant be fussed to mess about with people who expect the earth for £10!!!
