I have a story of a buyer who bought an item, received the item, then sent me a very rude message telling me that I had sent the wrong item. O.k. I instantly appologised and asked him for more info. As thats all he said. I sent the wrong item!!! With a NOT F@*king HAPPY! before it.
"Not happy!!!!!" is the new (or at least, the eBay Australia version of) "the customer is always right", which some people seem to throw out there as if it's some kind of magical, abra cadabra phrase that works like the proverbial rub on the genie lamp and all their wishes are the seller's command.
If it's not clear, this is my way of letting any buyers out there who have used this phrase, that I (and many other sellers I know) find it difficult to take you seriously if this phrase is in your message. More particularly as a standalone sentence, with or without 50 exclamation marks. 
(I have to put at least some of the blame on select sellers / retailers, though - the customer is always right was an advertising slogan that took on a life of its own, and so is / was 'not happy', i.e. aside from the Yellow Pages reference, which I am wont to use 
I'm sure we've all seen something like "Not happy? Let us know and we'll make it right", so the logical step is "Not happy. Whatcha gonna do about it, huh?). >_>
