me too, again!! :rotfl:

:j :j :j

sooo just a quick report: 16 more items that are unpaid.
paypal balance: £55.51

wow, wow.

Now another concern: I have specified at all my listings that I only accept paypal and not other payment methods. Quite simply, its not worth it for me to go to the bank for £2 and secrifice my whole lunchbreak! so there is this person who won one of my item and now is messaging that he/she wants to pay by postal order.... i dont want it and i said to them that I dont want itand that I want paypal.. what do I do now, what can they do against me?

Hi

Well done on the sales, that's fab!
If you've specified paypal then they can't do anything, they either have to get a paypal account or ask to let the sale go..you can relist and get your fees back...but you've got quite a while to cash a postal order, save it for a while, in fact why not offer postal orders then save them up for a treat or something...just an idea.

Thanks, it's amazing, I am a bit sad to see my dvds go but am so excited about getting more than £50 to my account, that will all be thrown into the debt! isnt't it fantastic - i really, really need my willpower not to spend it but I won't...

I don't want the postal order hassle at the moment to be honest... it would mean that different POs arrive different days, I would have to deal with packing, sending stuff every day, I dont really have time for that, once I do all in one bunch or two, max three and thats it... I want the money on my account asap. I know what you say might be sensible and it would also be avoiding paypal fees but still, I prefer to do it this way for the time being....

gifts update: I managed to get two hand creams one for my mom one for my sister from M&S , £2 each but staff discount 20% so £3.20 for 2, I think that's quite ok.

Ok, now I am at rock bottom again...

just got my orange bill and I thought it will be about £60 (I am doing lots of international phone calls, and I am not the only one using it so my friend always pays £30 in it so that would have been £30 for me...)

It was actually £89.80. I couldn't believe it. I just went through the itemised bill and I recognise every call... I was so stupid, how could I have made so many calls? I seriously need to restrict phoning people...

I don't want to pay it..

I put £60 aside for it but that's almost an extra £30...

-hug- I dont know what you can do apart from pay the bill. You'll only get interest otherwise. Is this a contract? Can you cancel it? Get people to ring you etc.

Hi there. You sound really excited about the purim party and if you can afford it then go to it. It's unrealistic to say you will never go out and if it is a once a year thing....it's not like you are blowing £50 every week on it.

I find it helps to have something to look forward to, to focus the mind on. I have tried the "spend NOTHING" route and it just didn't work for me. I decided that I would spend money but I would just be selective about it.

Oh I totally forgot about the Amazon thing, yes of course I can see the problem there! Sorry.

Yes I do sell on EBAY in fact I listed three things today! A skirt & a couple of beauty products (sample size that I had and was meaning to list for a while! I didn't steal your idea honest!)

Have you made sure that the two stamps definitely covers the 'new' postal rates set by The Post Office last year? Just a thought, would hate for you to underpay.....

yeah its a contract and in about a month its revision time so I can get a cheaper, better deal - last time I spoke to them they told me I was a VIP client because I spend more than £60 every month... so I doubt they would want to lose me so I will just push for a fab deal...

yeah I am already getting people to call me... I will have to find a cheaper way to phone... this is so scary....
