  • Just won £5 on BB :D

    Not sure what to do with it now though....is it better to wait until the end of the day to see if I have any more winnings (another game at 3pm) or gamble it all on roulette?!?!? Decisions, decisions...!

  • Time for a grumble, someone bought a game off me on a BIN on ebay for £36, and has decided not to pay for it, I've sent him a few polite messages requesting payment, but to no avail. I just looked at his feedback profile and he has bought exactly the same game from someone else, so clearly has no intentions of paying for mine, I want to dam well throttle him!

    On the plus side after fees, I now have an extra £170 in my pockets after selling some of my rubbish, claiming some expenses from work and there is so much more to sell, the smile gets bigger by the day (if I ignore non payers!)

    file a NPD against the buyer.... you get your FVF refunded and he gets a NP strike..... then relist and you will sell it for more (karma!!)

    When did he win your auction ? Sending "a few" emails requesting payment is a sure way to get someone's back up and make them wait for paying you.

    Last Wednesday, and I didn't email him until Saturday as I generally wait for 3 days before making contact, he didn't reply to that so sent him another Monday with no reply, so sent him a final message Weds saying I now had the right to file a payment strike against him and still no reply, so I have done the honours and reported him and relisted my item. It just p***ed me off when I saw he had received feedback from someone else for exactly the same item, but a couple of quid cheaper, it's pretty obvious he has no intentions of paying me! :mad:

  • Not done much today not been feeling too well after my Chinese takeaway last night. I have sold a suit today but all proceeds go to my boyfriend's mum's animal shelter charity. Got lots more clothes to photograph and list today.

    Amazing that they went for that. I have collected all of the DM lego promotions for DS, but there is no way he'd let me get my hands on them :o.

    In fact we have literally tons of lego in this house as OH and DS are both massive lego fans and spend hundreds each year on it.

    We also have a loft full of mint condition Hornby trains. I'd probably be not far off the £10,000 if I could get my mits on their lego and train collections, but they'd cut my hands off first.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    lol! well at least you got your hands on some!

    My DF is so stingy he not let me have anything, but he will reep the rewards when i get our 10k loan paid off!
