    Got my first assignment with BARE - a jewellery job. It's reimbursement only. Am I allowed to return the item after purchasing? It's a pretty big outlay?

    If not I will just have to sell the item on eBay. What do you guys do?

    No dear. You CANNOT return the item! When you do the report, one of the first questions asks the shopper to confirm that they will not return the item. Either keep it, give it to a daughter/wife/sister or flog it!

    Plenty of us have done these. They are pretty painless. There have been lots of posts about these jobs in the past. Just follow the brief .... and do not lose sleep.

    Has anyone heard of this company

    http://www.mystery-shoppers.co.uk/

    They are legit & a good company to work for....I do several different things for them (not video) on a regular basis, and some they will contact you about - they don't show up on the job board.

    They pay quickly too.
    :)

    I did the test....because I wanted to.....but you don't have to.
    ;)

    I had to repeatedly threaten them with legal action before they paid me......never again!

    I just did my first one today. I have a lovely item sitting in a box in a bag with a ribbon on it. I don't want it, I don't know anyone else who actually deserves it, so on ebay it will go. :)

    You have to go to a test centre, pretend to do a test but actually start stripping off and then wait to see if the staff members come in to try and stop you. It's a lot of fun. ;)

    Have PM'd you.
