I have also run into lots of people that ask me if I have shipped an item when it has actually been marked as shipped already in eBay. These people must not pay attention because I get an email when something is shipped and I can clearly see it in my eBay.

I am aware of all of this and when the seller follows these practices there is no need for me to message them about my purchases. I also always deal with sellers with 100% feedback or close to that much, so you would think that would be kind enough to actually communicate with me. Are people really that busy that they can't reply to a simple question? Makes me wonder sometimes.
