Did you get the postal insurance?
Your best option might be to say that it could have been damaged in transit and [if you have insurance] ask that it's posted back to you and you can then claim the fee's on insurance? Might help preserve the feedback?Adam's diary - My Debt Diary - The Challenge | LBM May 2010 with £23,343.35 | £16,141.46 to go...

Hi Pnny, thought I'd come over here and read your diary after you've kindly posted on mine. I enjoyed reading you diary, its certainly inspired me to 1. Keep going with ebaying thing, 2. Start doing surveys and 3. Start cooking more cakes! Would love to make homemade coleslaw, I just don't think I have the patience to grate those carrots, I just get so tired grating! Thats probably cause Im a weakling and the baby is taking up most of my lung space it feels like now.
Good luck with chpping those debts away, you certainly seemed determined, and trying your hardest.
Looking forward to keeping in touch in the future xLBM January 2017 £34k will have paid back finally by my DFD May 2021got my first store card on my 18th birthday, never known a life without the grey cloud of debt looming over me. 18yrs and the end is finally in sight 🤩0 -
:wave:Hi Angela and welcome.
Yes i just keep chipping away and hopefully someday i will be debt free.
I don't mind grating, i can stand there in a trance and think about things, but i know what its like to have little ones and be on the go all the time, not too bad now they are a bit older but there is only 14 months between my 2:eek:, so the baby/toddler time was bl**dy hard work.0 -
I blitz my carrot in the food processor and do the same with my cabbage, much easier that grating.
Hope you mange to sort the ebay thing.
Some people are so crafty.Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no: 203.0
