good luck with the shop, OH is still toying with the idea, put some stuff I made on our private account but no luck yet, thought I might get somewhere with my cards as they are quite cheap but no, I thought they looked good, and plenty of friends buy them but .,If anyone fancies a peek at a couple of them to see what they think I would be greatful:p

Oh wanted to do a retro sweetie thing as well although I didnt think it would work, so we bought a few tubs last week but that looks as though I am going to be proved right unfortunately!!!!!!!!!


Mrscmr, I have just read through your diary and just want to give you a big virtual [[[[[[[[hug]]]]]]]]

Hi, does everyone post to Australisa? I've posted things that are a few quid before but have just had someone ask how much to send something I've listed it should get more than £39 so it won't be covered & will cost the buyer over £20 surface mail. I guess I've jusrt answered my own question, No, no, no. Too risky & it's not mine, I've put it on for a friend.

Never ever consider surface mail. All that happens is that the deadline for a paypal claim gets close, buyer puts in a protective claim for non receipt and wins their money back whilst your item is still on the high seas somewhere. Airmail only for overseas, it doesn't matter how much overseas buyers tell you that surface is fine you must protect yourself.

Thank you, RM only covers £39 overseas & no tracking do they, so I don't think that I'll risk it as I'm hoping that it will go over £50.

All services via Royal Mail overseas only cover up to £39. If you need more insurance then you have to use a tracked service and (this is the important bit) also pay for additonal insurance as even tracked has a limit of £39.

So did everyone get all their stuff listed yesterday?
