    Thanks Soolin, I've seen many listings where they say the labels are removed as a legal requirement to stop shop returns, I'm too naive for my own good!

    Alternatively of course I might just be too cynical :p

    From October books join the other 'free' categories on postage.


    So thats why all the book sellers are abandoning feebay for Ebid and Amazon?. If feebay carry-on like this, then soon no-one will be selling on their site. Still, it's their business, if they want to put-off all their customers then thats their choice.

    How about this for a description item no 270437814328,:

    The gorgeous stone pattern matching coat of paint material quality, presents on extremely the luxurious uncommon sense of reality immediately. The purification snap ring and the rivet in the style of antiquity. strongly recommended in the magazine, and is the best choice

    I have seen people selling Primark items as 'like new vintage' and they usually have a line about this. I once e-mailed one to ask which store they were from and she replied 'I don't know, they come without labels when I get them.'

    As someone who buys vintage that drives me crackers. They even list it in the vintage section :rolleyes:
