    TMD hope your headache soon goes & stays gone with your meds. Littlekel, well done. & there were loads of other things that I was going to comment on but well done everyone, hopefu;lly should cover it.
    How do all you people manage to list so many things in an evening, it's taken me about 4 hours to do about 25. By the time you take the pics write the description measure & weigh everything. Maybe I'm just very slow.
    I'm very p'd off with my DSR, what do people expect, that I should know that they're going to bid & win an item so that I can get it sent out befor the auction ends. I have on my listings 3 working days for postage, in reality I post by the next day. I always email buyers so that they know when & how it was posted & I leave feedback once they've paid. Th emost I make on p&p is 50p & I've messed up royally on a few of my heavier items & not charged enough, by more that £1, from when feedback was left these people didn't leave me 5 for p & p charges or postage time, two paid late afternoon & I got to the post office the same day and posted, another paid in the morning & I posted by lunch time. Communication & dispatch time are 4.8 & p&p 4.6. Maybe I should put in the listing that the p&p also includes the packaging material, most of my sales have been fragile things so have used loads of bubble wrap & packing peanuts. My post office is about 2 miles away, they've p'd me off. DON'T THEY KNOW I'VE STOPPED SMOKING, ARE THEY TRYING TO ANNOY ME?
    Rant over, time for a cup of tea & some more sweets, my teeth might drop out soon. That will be attractive, market for used teeth on ebay?

    Oh my I haven't seen that !!!!! I have soo much to list, but I am having a nightmare with ebay buyers at the moment I have had my first negative & they have opened a case against me & I am awaiting ebays response!! I have another person open a case for item not recieved even though I have a signature with royal mail!. I keep thinking is it all worth it! But I have soo sooo much stuff & I really need the money !!!

    Possibly just need a kick up the bum!!!

    I got a neutral the other day, it annoys me as the person didn't e-mail first to say they were unhappy with the item, Ebay should do something so people have to contact the seller before they can leave neg/neutral feedback to give us chance to rectify any problems.

    I have 2 great big boxes and 2 small boxes of stuff to do, need to sort it out later when DD3 goes to sleep and start getting it ready to list.

    I just saw it by chance yesterday, typically it was after I listed about 59 items at 99p, will probably end some of them and do them again at the weekend and put the start price for more as I'd like a bit more than 99p for them.

    Must, must, must get sorted out early.
