Ebay seller in Hong Kong - sometimes things get lost in translation!!

Options
It's freezing cold outside, I'm stressing over Xmas and I'm going to a funeral this afternoon, but this has put a smile on my face!

I bought some jewellrey from Ebay a couple of weeks ago from a Hong Kong based seller, main attractions being the price (£2-ish) but also the Free Shipping (a tip I picked up from MSE btw!)

The parcel arrived today, approx 2 weeks after the auction ending but still within the expectations set by the seller. The item is superb - some jade earrings that the photo did not do justice to - PLUS a free gift of a pair of small pearl earrings. In the parcel was also a note that reads:

"A gift for you, I hope you like it. Your feedback is very important for us, please leave a Positive feedback if you like the items. If you don't like the items or don't pleasure with my service, please contact us first, Please give me a chance before you leave neutral or negative feedback thanks"

A little thing I know but it made me chuckle!!:rotfl:

    hilarious, thety are not all conmen in Hing Kong, have a good few traders from there as well and always through stuff in
  • I buy loads of stuff from Hong Kong, because i collect Hello Kitty and Sanrio merchandise and Hong Kong is the best place to get a lot of rare stuff. I have never had trouble with any eBay sellers from there and they always send free gifts and lovely notes.

    Your note made me giggle, i havent had one quite like that yet!!!
