Hello there, I first started buying & selling on Ebay,in 2004,in the hope of enjoying & giving a pleasant experience to all, as a form of positive greiving, after I lost my 2nd son.I won't go into any sob story,as my time on Ebay is therapeutic.

I sell a broad range of items.. Anything & everything, when I become motivated.

I like collecting Swans, clowns, coins & anything to do with historic value.

English

My hobbies are, of course Ebay, collecting antiques, walking, cooking, seeing live shows, meeting new people.

Any books that are non-fiction.. Bios, forensic science, history.

Any of the old classics or any great movie that has a moral to the story, comedy.

I love most kinds of music, anything I can dance to, or when the mood takes me, I love soppy love songs.

Mainly Docos, comedy, thrillers, dramas.

Okay, I have been a buyer & seller for quite a while now, as I have already said....But... It would really help everybody concerned, on Ebay, to just try a little harder to be a nicer person. I am not targetting any specific person..I am only commenting. I have seen & heard a lot of people getting angry about items & payments not being there quicker. I will have a little gripe about some of the sellers, that I have dealt with about certain items not arriving up until 4weeks after I have paid. I really do know how it feels when I pay for a item & then have to haggle with constant emails, to get my item and on the same token, the reverse, trying to receive payment. All I ask, is that we all try to please each other & not become too hard in our demeaner.

My history with Ebay is pretty good, I would say.. I have 2 sellers, who left me negative feedback, that was 3.5yrs ago & they were both selling car parts, from overseas. I was totally ripped off to say the least! But....I was only very new to Ebay & I have learnt a lot since then...Otherwise apart from these 2..I would have a feedback of 100%..Drats!! I recently had a bad experience with a buyer who bid on a item who didn't have any funds in her bank! After the auction finished, the buyer sent myself a email to tell me this and said she would be late in paying. I allowed her this time and she repaid me, by leaving a neutral feedback, which put my percentage feedback from 98.9% to 96%.. This was so unfair of her and not at all nice, seeing that I left her a great feedback, even tho I allowed her to proceed out of time, which I state on my item for sale page, that payment must be made within 5 days! So much for Ebay etiquette!!! If you check my other feedback,it is all great!

I usually use the Bank deposit transfer system, but am open to money orders & bank cheques.

Of course, this differs, depending on the size of the item..It can range from as low as $2.50 for a envelope. I usually use the prepaid satchels..$5.30 for up to 500gms in weight. For up to 3 kilos in weight..$9.30 prepaid satchel. I do not charge any extra at all for packaging. If a buyer pays a lot for a item, I will register the parcel.

I would try my best to please a buyer, that's why we are here, aren't we?

I am always open to any email questions..In fact..I welcome any Constructive criticism...Not so much Destructive criticism.
