Just checked Debenhams, if I bought the I pad I want it would be £499, if I used the cards from Argos it would be £375.
However you can not use gift cards online, you have to make a telephone order...............strange!!

Can you order in store and pay with the cards? I know when I use Love2shop vouchers in Boots I have to go in store and order the items in so I can use the vouchers:)

I will send recorded also in future, I used get annoyed when sellers would send things recorded as I'm usually at work so have the hassle of having collect them from the post office. However now I understand why they do this.

It's a shame that this is happening as I remember when I first started ebaying, you could post a cd or game for less than £1 but now the minimum cost of any recorded parcel is £3.10. I know we can charge to the buyer but it just means they won't bid as high if the post is too high.

The combination of postage costs, bad buyers and rising eBay and Paypal fees has spoiled what was once a nice and simple way of making some extra cash.

I had a shock when I had a look at my ebay today, I've got a neutral :mad:

It was for an item I sold before Christmas, buyer collected it - that took nearly a week. I asked him to check it over before he took it which he did and he was happy with it. So a month later he says it was not in the condition he thought it was in and he was disappointed as it was a Christmas present in which case if he wanted a new item why did he not go and buy new - around the £400 mark. He paid just over £100.
Anyway if anyone looks at my list they will see its a one off item, described with loads of photos so it won't affect any future sales.

As for putting signed for postage for everything, its a difficult thing as postage is so expensive as it is. You could also get oddities like a skirt that might cost £2.20 to post 1st class plus 80p for signed for to the uk. Postage to Europe might only be £2.50 - less than the uk.

Postage does put buyers off. I've only got my 1st sales this week, last ones were right at the start of October.

Finally caught up, it's only taken me 3 days :eek:
My condolences to its a secret 66 and lookingforabargain.

DS finally got fully better over the weekend but was so crabby and nasty to everyone on Thursday that I got so peed off with him I told him just to stay in his room on Friday. For once he actually listened and only came out of his room to get meals, thankfully he was feeling a lot better on Friday morning and did appologise to everyone that night after I had a better talk with him at dinner time.
I think the few naps he'd had on Friday did help, every time I checked in on him he was asleep and even went to the extreme of putting the baby monitor on so I knew he wasn't faking!
He's now itching to spend his birthday money and wants a bridge camera. He's seen one he has enough money for because he saved his Xmas money too knowing he may get a better item.
This is the one he wants

Would anyone know if it would be good or not please? I haven't a clue mine is just a wee point and shoot

Saw this on hukd just before I read ur post! I think FK would be the best person to give advice on cameras tho.
