  • ah ebay! i hate it , i honestly do! It used to be my best friend! Just recently i've had negative feedback for an item that i listed as 'in used conditon' and i got feedback saying 'this has clearly been worn. do not buy from this seller' !!!!!!! i bought a cupboard and a screw was missing so it's still half made in my bedroom waiting for the missing piece. I bought a used phone they took 3 and half weeks to send it out and think this is ok!!!!!!!! Grrrr. Facebook selling pages are the way forward for me lol no fees, no postage & buyer sees before they pay so if they don't want it then they can f-off!

    :D

    We have been fairly lucky with ebay....so far, but I'm not holding my breath ! I have just listed a dress and cardi of DD2s both worn twice , so we will see if there is any interest in those.

    Sorry to hear about the problems with your ex SBO, it must be tough for you not being able to have the contact. I would hate it. I have unfortunately heard this story all too often. I really hope you manage to get it sorted.

    Hope you have wamed up, the sun has gone in here now and I am starting to feel chilly x :(

  • Cheers all and any time Jellybean.

    Made over three hundred quid on ebay, and one book alone made 150. I am just going to plug away.

    Unfortunately I had a bad experience on facebook so i am no longer on it.


    Today, I will tidy up, iron, list ebay make a flapjack and post more ebay. sent a massive amount this morning already.


    I am warmer today, but the fire is in, albeit on low.

  • Oh and the ex, decided to ignore my texts, not bother speaking to me and carry on regardless.

    Also, my daughter is upset at the amount of lies and abuse about me and my husband she has to listen to.

  • Right, homemade flapjack is done and a cupboard is decluttered from second sweep through. I am hoping to pop some toys in there for the littleun.

    Massive bag of books for the charity shop. I am sure they will fly off the shelves, especially the illustrated guide to the 20th century. Riveting tome that is.
