I can't answer that question because I've never received such an email from any seller I deal with Sparklz, but if they did I wouldn't leave them a neg feedback for it anyway. That would be ruddy childish and not the way I tend to work or think.

The seller should remember that they ARE conducting business, so they can quietly seethe all they like to themselves, as long as they keep it only to themselves so they can laugh later when they count their profits.

Only a fool bites off the hand that feeds them.

Business is war, and every sale they make is just another tiny battle won.

As for postage costs ...

I factor those into things before I place my final bid so it doesn't concern me if they combine them or not, but they usually offer it to me anyway or they mail to me for free as I don't usually buy only a few dollars worth of goods from them at any one time, but spend hundreds of bucks in one hit.

More times than not the sellers I deal with end up offering to send the goods express service for free because they're so pleased with the total sales amount.

If I were to worry about a couple of bucks on saved postal costs I'd be buying at the wrong price in the first place as far as I'm concerned.

You may see me as being a PITA to deal with, but sellers making hundreds of dollars from me per time tend to think I'm the best thing since sliced bread was invented and go out of their way to create a great business relationship with me for the future.

For my part I know I'm the best thing since sliced bread ]:)
