I gave some bloke positive feedback and he's having a go at me about it!
Madness!
Basically he overcharged me for the P&P and didn't offer a refund so I just wrote 'Slightly expensive P&P but otherwise excellent transaction' as the feedback.
He's now attempting to have a go at me via email using some strange inbred attempt at English.
I'll post it here later, it's quite amusing.

It's pretty tempting to overcharge people for P&P, you can buy very cheap packaging in bulk. Charge as little as £0.50 and sell just 200 items and already you've made £100 from overcharging. Of course you can't always tell if the packaging is from a cheap mail order company or an expensive retail shop like WHSmith or Post Office.
As a buyer on ebay I would hate to have percentage charges for using electronic payments like Paypal (I know you're not allowed to do that but I still notice lots of big sellers still ask for it). However as a seller I really dont like paying all these fees, from selling on Yahoo! auctions years ago the only fee I paid was £0.00 so I don't like ebays fees, but to add yet another with paypal even though it is convinient it's still cutting a lot out of your profit.

Na, then he can probably sue me for something related to Data Protection if everyone emails him.
He's from Sheffield so I'm guessing he'll need the money.*
*Sheffield = Worst city ever.
Apart from the trams, they're cool.

It cost me £5.65 overall, not exactly millions.

Which could be you in this case for not knowing the T&C.
They say that if you receive the product and P&P costed less than what you were charged the buyer should refund the difference.
The contract only goes towards the final price, the P&P is just for postage and packaging, people are not allowed to make a profit off of it.

He already did if you'd look.
Tell that Phillip bloke to post the email from that man so we can all laugh at him
Yeah, there's plenty of people who complain about the postgae price after they've bid on an item when the postage was clearly shown in the item description.
Actually eBay only states sellers can charge a reasonable amount for postage and packing AND handling, and that you can only complain if you are charged an excessive amount when the amount was not stated on the item page.
If the guy stated £3.50 then it's your own stupid fault for buying it in the first place - by buying you form a contract to buy at the final price and stated postage.
