The third one was a stroke too many. I joined in 3 years back, I bought and sold 18 items, not what you would call hyperactivity, but I used to rather enjoyed my foray in the big action house in the sky.
Then about a year back, I bought a vacuum cleaner. After the auction ended the seller refuse to send me it unless I paid another £30.
6 months back I sold a vac which the buyer claimed was faulty, strange as it was not when I sent it. Being nice I sent a refund effectively loosing £30 pounds or a vacuum cleaner which ever way you prefer look at it.
But the last time did it. I put for action Le grand livre de cuisine d'Alain Ducasse, new it would cost £180. The auction was rather exciting, there was a bidder that kept sending me questions, you could see he really wanted it. Sadly for all, he got beaten at the post by another bidder who came out of nowhere.
This is it, I have learnt my lesson, ebay was fun then something happened and really it turned out to be a bit of a nightmare.
I sent the book, I should have sent it recorded delivery but the post was already £17.00, wrong move. According to the buyer it never arrived and since Pay Pal covers 100% the buyers by giving them a guarantee of a refund with your money, I lost my book or £90 which ever way you prefer look at it.
