eBay: lowest to highest sorting & also can't purchase.
SORTING: What's going on with this? I've been trying to buy car parts this week. I search an item & it brings up a list. Top few items are generally ok but it tends to be if you scroll for a bit you'll get the same thing for cheaper with another seller. So I sort inc. P&P lowest to highest, so in theory it should do that.…

I'm in my early 60s (OK, nearer mid 60s, cough) but still work part-time on online/tech stuff from home.

Back in debt after clearing it in 2013
Here I am again, back in debt 😩 I cleared 17.5K back in 2013 using the suggestions on this forum, but life (and a complete inability to manage money) has led me back to being in debt. Granted it's not as bad as before, at least the LBM was quicker this time around 😆 but it needs sorting. I did start doing a payment a day,…
