Nothing to do with that. Mishka said something, I replied, Mishka then came back jumping up and down like billy-o saying that she didn't say what she did at all, despite it being there on the forum, clear as day.
There's a 'preview' button for a reason. Perhaps someone should point it out to her.

Mishka said something (which did not indicate which of the two ways she had arrived at that situation)
You replied, I mean, accused: 'I guess you are one on these people that bids on/buys items and then complains about the terms afterwards, Mishka.'
Mishka corrected you. Unrepentant for your unfair comment, despite being proven wrong, you went on the defensive with your 'Conclusion: I ain't a mind-reader!'
Adding insult to injury, you then finished with your patronising 'Absolutely, but on this occasion I think you should be looking closer to home my dear.' and trademark smug smiley... despite the fact that YOU were in the wrong! :rotfl:
Ironic in that the final line was in response to 'I am one of those people that can accept when Im wrong, are you ??'
In summary:
Mishka: Described situation
SC: Accusatory response
Mishka: Corrected SC and observing that he might not be able to accept when he's wrong
SC: Defensive remark, patronising conclusion, proving Mishka's point.
The prosecution rests, m'lud.
I try not to rise to your nonsense these days, but I just can't tolerate hypocrites.My TV is broken!

So if Britian isn't in Europe then where is it? Asia?

Apologies, I edited my post too hard. It should have been 'not in Euro zone' as people will keep insisting that I should take a personal Euro cheque as all Europe is now on one currency...isn't it?I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

You truly are one of lifes muppets, with a rather unique ability to see the worst in any situation, I think you may have left your black tinted specs on
Anyway, another pet hate of mine (if i dare mention it ! ) is spelling mistakes in the listing, clothing seems to attract bad spellers. Dont get me wrong I can sympathise with people who have difficulty spelling, but cant understand why 'length' gets put as 'lenght' several times and it never gets noticed. Also putting 'gorgeous' in the title and not showing a picture when that minging dress you purchased with the puff ball sleeves and bow on the bum clearly hasnt been gorgeous for at least 20 years.:eek:

why is it that whenever there is a flame war going on, Snooze Control is never far away? :rolleyes:
So lets all play nice. (not going to happen but worth a shot)
Back on topic, my pet hate is slow payers on BINs, dont "buy it now" if you're not going to pay it now!! GOD DAMN IT!!
The worse in NPBs. God how I hate them. I just filed 3 disputes today after giving them over 10days. They never respond to your emails unless you do this.
I could go on....:D0 -

Oh yes...I'm with you there. I had one a short while ago bought on a second chance offer from me and never paid (it was a paypal only option as he was overseas). I sent a new invoice after 5 days and opened a dispute on day 10 and he paid just before I closed the dispute. Apparently he had flu..So he could crawl of his sick bed, buy my item and then just collapsed again

:rotfl: Your expression made me smile..I've looked at things before and wondered why anyone would consider it gorgeous (yerk).I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
