    It's all to easy to rant about ebay lol. Now you mention it I've just literally sold the last baby pink version of that necklace on etsy. I love etsy, they let me keep my money :).

    Thanks Mabel.

    Good luck for the car boot Jen, hopefully you'll make lots :). We have so much rubbish in our loft I'm surprised it hasn't collapsed on us. I'm going to try and convince my dad to give it a go one day because he could do with the money too. The trainers sound like a bit of a challenge, I'm sure they'll sell very well.

    On a thread on MSE a couple of months ago someone was complaining that another seller was using their photo out of photobucket without consent...Anyway, The person who the photo belonged to went into their photobucket album and put pictures of dog pooh all over the photo-obviously as the photo had not been saved (it was used direct from photobucket) the picture on ebay was covered in pictures of dog pooh and it took the seller (photo stealer) several days before they realised!!! lol
    Or if you list with auctiva they make your photos uncopiable (I think).
    Or on auctiva you can watermark your photos
    Or as someone suggested put your ebay ID or shop name on the pics
    Some of us aren't leaving ebay coz we can't afford to!!! :(
