    I see where you're coming from, but a buyer who did that would really be quite petty. It shouldn't matter where any eBay seller gets his goods from, if they are worth £80.00 to the highest bidder, then he or she should be happy with them regardless of the profit that the seller is making. It's the same for any item sold on eBay.

    And I did save up for about a year to get 14,000 points :) so it wasn't "free" exactly!!!

    I don't think that the buyer would be petty if s/he rec'd nectar vouchers and not 'adams' vouchers -some ppl buy vouchers for gifts and if I bid on what I thought were Adams gift vouchers, and they turned out to be nectar vouchers, I wouldn't be happy at all. You need to make it very clear in your listing what the voucher is so ppl know what they are getting. I buy them for £2.50 a piece too, mainly off friends/family - they get the money they are worth at sainsburys, I get the extra to spend at adams for the kids, so we all work out winners. I think you would also be better off splitting them, I am always looking for nectar ones on ebay, but 100.00 in one hit would be too much for me, whereas i probably would pay 20.00 for 25.00 worth.

    Ah yes, of course I definitely will make it clear that they are Nectar vouchers. And you're right - I probably will split them into 2 lots of £50.00, but Special Delivery being around £5.00, and eBay/PayPal fees being £5.62 for a BIN of £40.00, it's expensive doing it that way. I guess I'll wait and see!
