When i'm selling items that i'm just about making a small profit on,.....that 6 quid means a lot.
But if £6 is nothing to YOU,....i'll gladly accept a donation.
If £6 is a significant part of your profit, may I suggest you are wasting your time? Surely an hours overtime at work would net you more?0 -

Sorry to disappoint you, but i'll be sending my items as letters as they fit nice & flat in an envelope,.....so i get to keep my £6!0 -
Fine. But you said £6 means a lot. I don't care what you do, but £6 means sweet miss adams, unless you are making a quid an item.0
