    No I am a moaner and people don't like it they give retalitary feedback - is that even a word!

    Like one man I got two sim cards from he was charging a pound (this is years ago but I am mentally scarred!) but £4 p&p so I got two asked him to combine postage and he said no! Then he posted them in the same envelope with a 36p stamp on it! So that was two negatives. Then this darn stupid woman who had a conspiracy theory going on people in Nottingham who only accepted cheques and sent me 20 emails one sat morning because it took 4 days for payment to turn up. The list is endless I attract idiots but I have a feedback of about 1106 I think and its about 99.4% positive.

    Yes paypal only charge you for the end auction price not including postage, but we all have to pay paypal fees if we use it so they should too! Its actually against terms and conditions I think to blatantly charge for paypal fees.

    Well done on a no NSD - hopefully many more to come!
  • hope so rayday, struggling at the moment, we have just moved house hence the council tax bill not being paid yet!! plus i have just decorated ds bedroom, cost an arm and a leg but not quite finished yet as i need a carpet in there but will have to wait, this house is gorgeous, just moved from a really rough estate to a lovely area, and 1 extra bedroom, trouble is it was previously occupied by an old lady who had lived in it for 30 years so obviously its not what u would call "modern" lol. Not too bothered coz ill be here for years hopefully so plenty of time to do it!!!!
