THANK YOU KATH!!!! It is so hard to get buyers to understand UNTIL they actually sell themselves..what is involved in these sales..YES we sell because we want to sell something, make a bit of money and make customers happy..BUT..Ebay is not the happy little selling place it used to be when it started..NOW..it has become a huge..soul less organisation..and it hits sellers where it hurts..in the pocket!! The fees are riciculous and Paypal should be ashamed of themselves..making such a profit out charging for transactions..Quite honestly I am seriously thinking of quitting Ebay forever and returning to having Garage sales..PLEASE buyers,,,Think....WE not only JUST list our items..which takes time and internet and computer resources...and following our sales and chasing buyers..THEN THERE ARE THE FEES!!!!.we then do the leg work of wrapping posting which means long queues in post offices and petrol and driving and THE COSTS OF THESE are not cheap..include in that the stamps, the bubble wrap, the paper, envelopes, tape, pens..and on and on and on......Anyway..I say if you are not aware as a buyer of how we are coping with this stuff then PLEASE MAKE YOUR SELVES aware before you criticise us..THe majority of sellers are genuine honest people who are doing this to make some money and have a little fun and make people happy..BUT..there are those unsrupulous ones too..Ahhhhh..the joys of ebay are fading for me!!!!!!
