If there is one big tip i can give you on removing negs is to RING THE EBAYER it may be daunting but on all the times i have had a neg a phone call has never failed.
See older post on how to get their phone number.

Start the conversation off with your sorry to bother them but you have just noticed that they have left you a neg and you wanted to speak to them directly to clear it up as emails and messages can get confusing. Go on to explain your side of it and the rest will depend on how they respond. 99% of the time they are shocked to be put on the spot and would never expect an ebayer to ring them, they think they are invisible behind a screen.

Maintain politeness at all costs

Even if they are stubborn and not cooperative, most often than not when they put the phone down they rethink about how they have handled the whole situation and feel bad.
Some of you will read this and think yer OK but there are some mean people out there who just don't see reason, yes that's so true but if you want the neg removed you gotta try, right?
