Advice please..........
Having a mare with an ebay buyer over a £3 coffee maker........
They made no contact and answered no e mails so reported non payment.
At this point they sent us on a guilt trip as they had been over too states too a relatives funeral.
I went out of my way too offer both condolences and apologies.
They sent a cheque, we haven't received it.
They proceeded too pay via paypal even though we expressly state we don't accept it.
They then proceeded too send pretty offensive mails accusing us of fraud, cashing cheques etc.........
Again humble pie tongue bitten offered further apologies and told them too let ups do there bit and deliver.
I can still get hold of the parcel, I really want too go and smash hell out of it put there money inside and re send it................
Would you ?

It might be an idea to point out to them that accusing you of fraud in writing is libelous and may be subject to legal action incurring punitive
damages that, with legal costs, will be considerably more than £3. Then watch them back pedal.
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

I had to collect a letter that was to heavy for the stamp put on it, had to pay for the extra postage, and an "admin fee", don't
know if it can be done with parcels, but it could well cost them more than £3 to pick it up.
Failing that, if it's electrical subject it to a large amount of water, while still switched on and blow it up!

most definately do the above, they cant accuse you of fraud as they would be able to clearly see in a bank statement that you havent cashed the
cheque. sounds like a bit of an idiot to me.

In the US they used to do that to mail-spammers. You could tape one of their reply-paid envelopes to a box of old diving weights/bricks/an abandoned
fridge or something equally hefty and send it back to them, the reciever would then have to pay for it Apparently the US post have changed their
reply paid system now to stop this though

No trees were killed in the sending of this message.
However a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
