Am I being sensitive, or is this a bit rude?

Am a relative newbie to selling on eBay and just wanted opinions on this comment.

Buyer bought some headphones (only for 0.55 + 0.50 p&p = 1.05 so nothing major at all), saw I had a comment on the order, never had that before, went to look, it says:

"hi there please send asap and pack well to avoid any damage."

I say on my listings i send within 2 working days, 2nd class, and i'm hardly going to just throw them in the post as if there are wrecked when they get there he'll want a refund.

Am almost tempted to drag my heels now, but I won't. Just feeling a bit peeved for some reason. hmph.

Yeah, buyer is being a bit rude. Take the two days if neded, don't rush.

Thanks

I just don't get why someone would actively go out of their way to type that, why?

And you've only spent 1.05 on it, no biggie surely

Seems a bit of an unnecessary comment and I would ignore.

He might have had a bad experience in the past?

He might be lording it becuase you arent allowed to leave bad feedback for buyers any more.

I get messages like this every so often.
I reckon they have probably had bad experience in the past of poor despatch times and items wrapped in a scrap of an envelope (I can believe this as most of what I buy comes in nothing but an envelope!)
I just ignor it though. I reckon after my few thousand transactions I've got the hang of packaging stuff.
