  • Just made my first ebay sale in years, can't remember when I last listed anything but think I might have caught the bug again. £9.51 for some water filters that I've had kicking around since my water filter broke and I couln't be bothered to get another. Got another 2 boxes to sell, must have been a good offer on somewhere sometime!

    Do I need it? Can I afford it? Is it cheaper elsewhere?

    I have a problem. Someone bought something from me and I sent it recorded delivery. After he paid he left feedback saying thanks and that if I had anymore he would be interested. However, today I arrived home from work to find the parcel had been sent back undelivered for the reason "not called for".

    What happens now? Do I need to repost it? If I contact the buyer and he wants me to send it again will I have to pay the postage or will he?

    Is there no FAQ info on ebay for that situation?

    I expect so but I don't get on very well with ebays 'help' section.

    However, I received a message from the buyer saying could I send it normal post because it takes him 3 bus journeys to get to the post office. Although I sent it recorded delivery I'm just going to send it ordinary post because he's already left me feedback so that means he wont be able to open a case against me if it 'doesn't turn up'? Is that right?

    Why did my internet have to choose today to be so fricking slow, to the point where it takes AGES to upload photos to ebay?!!! :mad::mad::mad:

    Hello All,
    I have a bike that I'd like to put up for sale but want to include plenty of pics. Can someone point me to the best site to host them for free?

    Thanks so much!

    Nobody knows when they will be until eBay sends out an email. They are a little bit random. Can be one a month or one a fortnight, not normally more frequent than that.
    Can we pretend that aeroplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars, cause I could really use a wish right now...

    I've been lazy on the ebay front lately but have just a bit more so that's another £36.90 to add to the total this year.

    Sor far I have raised £86.25 so I need to put a bit more effort in to achieve my target.
