Good advice from S Always, always check their feedback. Get their address prior to making the deposit. If you can, try googling them to see if you can find out anymore information. If they are a small seller, there might not be anything.  

That is completely understandable. I thought your post sounded fine btw, Good luck for getting it changed

Hi Timothy, you haven't specifically stated that you have contacted the trader and asked them if they can edit the feedback. If you havent, this would normally be you first step

I dont use ping so totally free for me

Generally this is not a trademe issue, its Aramex and NZ post stopping more bookings as they have reached their own capacity. Normally if you try the next day, they (aramex and nz post) have allowed bookings again
