    Perhaps it's a fancy dress costume if it's that tacky looking. Maybe a search of completed items and 'fancy dress wedding costume', 'bride fancy dress' or similar will reveal your seller.

    Without showing a photo it's difficult to explain, but this is not fancy dress item, it has far to much material in it. Even in a tightly sealed bag it is the size of a pillow.

    Anyway, in the cupboard now until I hear anything from anyone.

    Dont want to hijack your thread but a quick Q?.

    A chinese seller has some trinkets for sale. They offer a variety of shapes
    and offer them as a keyfob or necklace.

    Ordered a couple of styles and 2 of each. But my ebay doesnt actually show me what i selected. Where should i be looking?

    Thanks.

    If you've bought them, they appear in "Purchase History" on the left hand side. Or they could still be in your shopping basket - top right hand corner.

    Unsolicited goods. If not claimed in 6 months, it's legally yours.
    If you fold it in half, will an Audi A4 fit in a Citroen C5? :)

    Noooooo

    I suppose I could always saunter into a charity shop, leave it on the counter and run before they had the chance to see what it is.

    Not in the shopping basket. It was off ebay.com if that makes any difference.

    One item says star chain. But the others are blank.

    I bought and paid for them instantly. But it didnt mention the options i had chosen.

    China time 7 hours ahead of UK? I dont think they will reply to my message asking to confirm what i had ordered, Maybe Monday now?

    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....

    The only way you can find out is to look at the sellers other items, although to do that for 40 x eBay sellers is a bit much.

    Not as bad as the Pallet load of high-end communication electronics we got in 2012, with our name & address details on the courier label & its still sat in our warehouse, as no-one has been in touch.
    They're legally yours, I'd sell them.
