I'm an ebay NINCOMPOOP

Yup, a ebay nincompoop of the first order.

I had a sale this week and was really surprised at how much it went for, so feeling a little guilty (?? yup I know) I added some extras of the same item to the parcel.

I charged £8.50 p&p and after spending ages packing it very carefully I was charged £10.70 at the post office. I did think about bringing it back home but it had taken me so long to pack and I reckon I'd used a roll of tape too!

I'm now off to sit in the Silly Corner. :o

  • it'd be really out of order should they give you only 3 or 4 stars for postage and packaging within the detailed seller ratings!!

    I am also in the silly corner!! Added an item to my shop using the 'list similar' route - but forgot to change the price downwards. Hence I paid more fees than necessary and, if anyone noticed it over the last dew days, they will think I must charge over the odds! Ah well, managed to edit it, but hope any potential buyers have another look!!
