The 'I want it NOW!!' debt/savings thread - Part 3

moneymabel

Have put my guitar hero metallica on ebay-what a bunch of %^&*&^-because its in the videogame section you have to do free delivery (sure someone else on here had the same prob a while ago) all very well except it comes with the guitar which I'm going to have to send standard parcels!!!!! bloody feebay now I know why I dont bother. Still I havent used it much so better £50 off my overdraft than it sitting in a corner and not being used. I got it as a package anyway so wont lose too much money.
But still..grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

e bay is a pain choosing the postal fees.. it is silly

Yeah the first option willmake the second option cost more so i think it will have to be option 2!

I need to see a few people about how much i can get for a morgage and what the repayments will be then i can confirm to medip that i want to buy the house and the ball will be set rolling i think i have 12 weeks to let mendip know i want to buy it

MM-It was me complaining about that the other day! Idiots aint they!

You have to select that your item is bulky then say how much postage you want in your description. Then when your item ends you or the buyer add's on the postage fee on the invoice.

I have a few choice words for ebay too... Hopefully you'll get a decent price for it mm. I'm so jealous of you Jen, I really want to move out. My family are all nuts and my dad is the complete opposite of me so quite often we'll irritate each other, or rather, he's the one usually annoying me.

I've just gambled £5 of my scratch card money because to be honest it takes so long to get anywhere without getting the bonus money as cash, and I'm impatient. Plus as I have a job I don't need it quite so badly now. Anyway, I've come away with £16 so I've added it to the money I owe my dad . Yesterday I did return home to a £13 customs charge note for some beads though , I wasn't happy with that.

Thanks Maria- I couldnt work that bit out but i've done it as buy it now and added a bit on for postage! Got 5 watchers so fingers crossed.

Sounds exciting Jen! Hope you manage to get a mortgage.

Ebay sounds like a nightmare, I haven't used it in ages.

Evening everyone, I hope you've all had good days.

It was from the US mm, customs charges just annoy me because the actual charge itself is only about £2, but Royal Mail have a surcharge of about £11 for paying it for me. I wouldn't mind but it was a £2 charge! If I could lend out £2 and get £13 back I'd be rolling in it...

*Anyway* Money-wise I've been underpaid by a bit over £160 because they used the wrong tax code, and as I get paid weekly it's a lot to me. I emailed them at 7am but they haven't bothered to reply so I doubt I'll get it back til next week at the earliest. Needless to say I'm not very happy with them at the moment .

Evening peeps,

Thats not good nicki, unpaid by £160 on a weeks wage thats terrible, i hope it gets sorted out quick.

MM- think you meant YB not dawn!
