The seller takes their time posting something, but they didn't actually specify a time scale of how long it would ake
Bought a jumper & paid for it on the 23rd, he only got round to posting it yesterday because of "internet connection problems"
He said that because of the postal strike it will be early next week 
Not sure whether to leave negative feedback or neutral & not give any stars for postage

If you leave negative then so will he. Not worth it tbh.

Nothing you can do matt unless they specify they will post it within X amount of days
Like Brett says, leaving negative isn't worth the shite it will cause

I wouldn't leave bad feedback tbh, less than a week isn't that bad. I've had slower.

Matt unless a time frame was specified or you paid for next day delivery then i's wait m8, there is quite a few strikes on. A negative would be bit harsh. Neutral maybe?

I hate the ebay feedback system
If I pay for something straight away, then I should be left feedback straight away. These people who hang on untill the buyer has left feedback just use it against you incase they fuck up

I hate it too, if you buy somthing and pay for it straight away... thats your bit done so they should leave you feedback!
Ive just sold some stuff on there and left positive for the ppl who have already paid, fucks me off that feedback can be used to get back at sellers/buyers etc

Buyers can be more of a cunt than sellers tbh. Just give it time while the strike is on and chill out Matt.

What a good thing to do is...
If someone has pissed you off mega-bad on eBay but you don't want to tarnish your own feedback there are two options.
1) Wait 90 days, then leave feedback and pray they don't notice the same day. After then they won't be allowed to retaliate.
2) Leave them good feedback so they'll do the same. Then use a '2nd account' to bid on something else of theirs and just leave them negative straight away.
