Feedback dilemma on purchased item.....

I bought a polo shirt for my son described as New without Tags - the auction finished last Sunday and the item arrived today. However, when i say arrived, my neighbour took it from the postman as he didn't want to put it through the letterbox - It was packaged in a brown envelope only - it's been pee-ing down so envelope was basically disintegrated and the shirt was hanging out - when I got home my neighbour gave me a wet t-shirt and a piece of brown paper that used to be the envelope!

Anyway, there are stains on the front of the t-shirt - they could have conceivably have come from the envelope or something else in the mailbag but to me they actually look like old stains.

Also, the t-shirt has been washed as I can smell the fabric conditioner - I have a sensitive nose to it as we can't use it because of my OHs allergies.

I only paid 99p but the postage charge was 4.75.

They have 14 pieces of feedback - most positive and one neural where they hadn't put enough post on the parcel.

WWYD?

Pinot - i'd rather have the Pinot! - Can't stand Gin :o

Yeah, it's the cheek that is annoying me - they seem like a fairly new seller - so i was giving benefit of the doubt initially. Anyway - not going to give any more correspondence with them for now - i've sent in a report to ebay. I'm convinced the stain was there - does anyone routinely wash items that are new? and if so, you would just say - "this was new but it's been out of the packet and hanging about the house so i have washed it to freshen it up", not ignore the question and just say your goods are fresh - I'm not disputing that it smelled nice :O

It's possible that something else in the posties bag stained it so again i can't proved anything.
