This is an update to my sig but definitely not in the right direction.
It seems I was premature in adding the £18 for the e-bay item I sold - despite being very well packed it arrived in several pieces *sob* so I am now minus £18 - I am actually more down than this due to the cost of packing materials and hefty postage... it seems 1 step forward and 2 back. I will be putting in a claim with the carriers but i have a low hope threshold at the mo.

Don't be down dedicated - you will get your money back from Royal Mail. I had to do a refund yesterday and it made me feel sad but you have to bounce back so I have just prepared 10 new listings ready to upload. Chin upNot been here in years! Hi everyone. Make £10 a day challenge = £78.45/1550
