From Trash to Cash: the £100 to 10K Dribble thread, Part Deux

Hi everyone!
Mexican took us out for lunch today, which was nice. OH has got a half day now, but then he's promised to list everything, and if he doesn't, I definately will! Everything is photographed, so I could list it now, but the website revamp is almost ready so I'd love to be able to use that.

Ordered some lace and pretty things, and the seller keeps sending the wrong thing. I wanted black, but got bright orange, which is a horrible vomit coloured. Today I got a mangled ball of green...its so torn and ripped it looks like it's been attacked by tigers. I'm getting annoyed...it really isn't that hard to send what I've asked for, is it? Grrr!

I cannot wait to show you all what I've been working on.
Oh, Dilli, could you PM me about SEO? It baffles me so if you have the time, I'd be happy to pay you to help? If you don't mind...

Yeah, shutting up :rotfl:

Hi Saucy. Sorry my books causing you trouble :-( can't believe they've sent you green now! Are they colour blind?!

saucy - sent u email enjoy ! lol

HopeAndDriftWood

Nooo it's not your fault. I feel terrible though, you've been waiting so long.
I'm torn between ordering some more or cutting up a lace top and using that, lol. The idea looks perfect in my head, so it's annoying that they can't do it right...

I've just got my new logo!! YAY!!

Edit: Thanks Cally

Don't worry Saucy it's no problem hun honestly. Don't go cutting up a top for it ( unless it's one you were going to throw away)

Try and work this one out - Sold 2 father's day cards to one person, combined postage so knocked off the p+p from one card.

Bearing in mind, auction finish 12 Mar, was paid for on 15 Mar, posted on 15 Mar and arrived there today 16 Mar

Message today says - I received the cards today but am quite disappointed. The picture and description made them appear better than they were as did the expensive postage charge.

Not quite sure how the picture and description made them appear better than they were

Some people are just like that on ebay they want everything for nothing I've had one like it not so long back

laura - what was your reply to the one you had ?

cagneuk
