    OMG i am so mad! i made 2 nappy cakes for a lady and she has sold them on for £10 extra:eek: she collected money from people saying they were x amount when they weren't. I could have charged more and i wish i had now. I have heard this from her aunty and she said that her niece had said she is on to something here. What fleecing me and her friends thanks! I didn't know what to say.

    She was a genuine customer asking for them for someone leaving work to have her baby but when she collected the money from collegues she told them they were dearer than what they were and she made a profit out of it.

    Aparently the women liked them anyway and aparently cried when they recieved them, I'm just shocked she over charged and i don't want them to think it was me charging more.

    That really is shocking and seriously out of order. I can't beleive that someone would even think of doing that, if she can't make one herself she shouldn't get you to put in all the work and then pass them on and make a profit! I hope you let her know if you ever see her!:mad::mad:

    Thanks she wasn't passing them off as he own though at least as all my details are all over and inside them and i would never have known if her aunty hadn't told me but i just can't get over it as i could have charged more really and she has made more profit than me for soing nothing.

    I can only hope that if they want any more that they come to be direct next time and i won't be making her another one that's for sure.
