SITREP: Quite a pricey camera sold recently and I have been credited with the funds.

No problem with French people etc, but I always make my…

Ebay 'Best Offer' - do buyers find it difficult to use?
Hi I use Ebay 'best offer' with BIN. I find a lot of people seem to reach for e-mail and ask 'what is your best price?' rather than use the 'make offer' button. I think about 70% of my seller questions are asking what is my best price, or what is the lowest I'll accept! I use 'Best Offer' as it's automated and I don't want…

Simple invoice printer
Probably better places to post this but I'll give this a whirl. I'm looking for a simple, small(ish) printer that just prints in black and on A4 for invoices and post/courier labels. Wireless would be useful. Laser or inkjet, easy to manage, cheap on cartridges. Speed not too important, would be printing 50-100 sheets per…

The recipient is paying and has arranged a Parcelforce label for me and emailed it through. They have used Parcel2go. They say I can just drop it at any Post Office. The label has no barcode or Parcelforce…

Thinking of selling my old laptop on eBay
I have a couple of old laptops which I'd like to put on eBay. They are prob only good for spares or repair, which is why they are no longer used. I don't think they even fire up, I think one has a screen which doesn't show anything. In which case, I can't delete anything off it. If I wanted to sell them, how do I go about…
