    I have sold unwanted kids toys on eBay for hardly anything and made a loss, it is luck of the draw really. At least the buyer is going to be happy

    Glad I kept my eye on you Julie, you're now showing your true colours as a nasty little cookie stuffer.

    Report please somebody...

    We had another cookie stuffer she was already on my watch list though.

    Under the new rules a new user can't post links straight away, so they post innoccent posts for a while, build up a post count then go back and cookie stuff the old posts.

    hi, im new and have no idea what a cookie stuffer is or a troll actually that i saw mentioned in another post so soolin i would appreciate your help on this one as i keep reading things like is x a cookie stuffer and is x a troll and im totally lost on these phases. Lol

    Also why would people need ot post links in an ebay chat forum etc surely thats the point of the forum and i cant see the need for the links, except if your discussing a certain item like the phone

    i dont meant to be rude but i dont see anything wrong with niknaknoos original post about her items on ebay - is this topic not about not putting correct postage to cover the postage

    maybe i am being dumb and missing something here

    I've just had this dilemma!

    I won a something for 10p + 99p p+p. It cost £1.65 to post.

    So I sent them an extra £1.09 (the total price again), and I'm still not sure after ebay and paypal fees they'll make any profit, but it made me feel better.
