Thanks, indeed I did, yup 70p 1st class, meaning I made a total of 3.91 :j !

What comment should I leave a buyer in feedback?

buyers tend not to access their feedback at all! You should really save leaving feedback until you have received it from the buyer first, as you can't change or remove it as a seller, so if the buyer got sh*tty or claimed non-arrival you wouldn't be able to leave feedback to warn other sellers if you left feedback upon payment.

Also, don't get confused between leaving feedback for a buyyer and leaving a feedback response. The response will only show on your feedback, not on the buyers feedback.

It's been a funny BH weekend - just two books sold -
One to a professor at Leics Uni and the other to someone at the British Museum!

Hope it picks up again next week.....

Just a heads up, it appears the problems with no SDN emails may be happening again. There is a new, long thread about it on the sellers forum.

Oh joy...

:j technically I'm multi tasking as I'm printing off despatch notices and wrapping books. I sold quite a few on saturday and Sunday and hadn't got round to packing and as I am away for a few days from tomorrow thought I had better get started.

Or..I'm just doing this rather than the washing up as my OH claims.

Does anyone know how long it takes to send an enquiry to a seller? I know when I recently had an issue, my buyer's emails seemed to take ages to arrive.

I'm thinking of buying, this time, and waiting impatiently for a reply!

about a week ago i had a pending email for a book, about a day later i got another pending email for the same book

i checked my account to see that the first order had been cancelled but no email was received to inform me of this. the book must have automatically relisted by amazon hence the second pending email

after another day i checked my account again to find that the second order had also been cancelled and the book was relisted by amazon, again with no email informing me of the cancellation

i have not sold anything on amazon since this until yesterday when i received another pending email for a different book, i have checked my account and status is pending. no idea if it is going to go through or not.

has anyone else been having this problem?

Did you relist it yourself after the first pending mail? I did this and had the same thing.

The email should say in it that after 3 days they'll relist it for you. I knew this, but didn't want to wait.

Had the same book listed on Amazon and GreenMet for a few months. Sold it on Amazon last night but was too tired to delist it from Greenmet after work. Same person bought it on Greenmet late last night so have had to cancel that one [no feedback probs] and sent the Amazon one off.... Not the most obvious book to want multiple copies of though but what do I know [not much it was rhetorical] :rolleyes:
