  • I had a woman give me feedback as she was disappointed in a top she bought from me. I gave her an answer lol saying ' it was from ASDA as advertised so hardly high quality, it is almost brand new and it cost you £1 so what is there to be disappointed in?' Some folks just like to moan but it is really upsetting at the time.

    Nasty about what happened to your car, it's so sad that people really cannot be trusted can they! As for the ebay person I would report them to ebay. I don't think it's right they should have your number. I had problems with this horrible man who bombarded me with emails daily for ages. Hopefully he'll get bored and go away.

    Brilliant news on the money from Cyprus :j hope it eases some financial strain and even better news on the signature :)

    Mate:D...I am desperately trying to CONCENTRATE on posting FB stuff...and I AM SOOOO BORED now :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:...so I open up the user CP just to have a quick look at suscribed threads...fatal ....as I have composed a post in my head that I was saving for later.
    May as well procrastinate in style and do it now...but first I need to catch up on your posts as it was about Customers From Hell and how to handle them.
