    Have also just realised that I will now have to pack up and label 20 things next week and take them all to the Post Office:eek: What have I done?

    Oh yes! And unfortuantely, you always get one buyer who doesn't pay for 3 days so you can't send it the same time as the others and have to make another trip a few days later! The joys of ebay!

    I'm sure you won't just go every couple of days. I always write in my listing that I can only post tuesdays and saturdays, so if they don't pay by the evening before they'll have to wait until my next day off for there item to be posted! It there own tough luck!

    oh dear you've just made me feel very guilty about all the things I watch just so I can see what they went for, but didn't have any real intention of buying... have I been tormenting some poor sellers?! :o
