    They're quite big - I was thinking some kind of cord and then something to fasten them - a hook going through a loop or something - hmm... (thanks :) )

    I have a quick question. I'm listing some oddments on ebay and I was thinking of trying putting buy it now prices on them. But I go away monday morning so I won't be able to post things untill I come back.

    I was listing for 10 days so I would be back before it ended. By if I do BIN they could buy it at any point so if I just put a note on them that I can't post untill I get back will that be OK do we think?
