    I sell quite a bit on e-bay, mainly sheeps fleece & not once has anyone backed out on payment. I have had others not pay when selling the kids things.

    I just think shes got a nerve.

    Hi all

    I'm just wondering if any of you knowledgeable "bootsers" can help me? Please

    I was thinking of trying The Protect & Perfect Serum but even though I'm now 31 I STILL :eek: get spots. Has anyone with similar skin tried it and found it helped / made them worse or has anyone tried the Beautifully Clear Age-Defence Blemish Care Serum No7 product it's in the same sort of bottle and also costs £16.75.

    Hope someone can help me.

    Thanks in advance

    I have no advice except that the no 7 ladies can be really nice and do know their stuff. So it could be worth asking their advice. Honestly they are usually nice.

    Hi, I haven't posted on this thread before, but just wondered if you could help me with a question.

    Can I use the 250 point Hydroquench voucher in combination with the No7 3 for 2 offer? And can I pay with Boots vouchers and still get the points?

    Thank you

    I sold 2 small 5ml pots of serum , buyer sent email saying she would sent payment now Ive just had this e-mail from her.

    Hi
    I bid and won your serum on 1st April, and was due to forward payment to you. Unfortunately I have tried a friend of mines protect and perfect serum and it has caused an allergic reaction, and left me with a rash. Therefore I will no longer be able to purchase this from you. Would be grateful if you wouldn’t leave negative feedback as this is a genuine reason and you should be able to sell it to the second bidder.
    Regards
    Sue

    If the second bidder wasn't much lower, you could do a mutual agree not to complete transaction which would avoid the fees for the sale, then offer it to the second bidder. I know it's hassle and not as much as you hoped, but may not be worth arguing with her and risking a negative over.
