You mean INSANE RARE stuff. Or UNICORNIOUS looking things? How about AMAZING ties?

I already know the answer the Mac guys are going to throw back at me, so I will direct this to the rest of you. When listing a new item, I typically use the sell similar item button and just edit the title, pics and details. Lately when I get into the editing area, the entire description is missing. There is just a blank box. I've tried finishing the listing and going back in through edit listing, but still the same. It happens while I am using Chrome, at home....works fine at work. I can work around it by using IE, but it gets really slow. Has anyone else ever had a problem like this?

Yes. Do you know how I solved it?

I bought a Mac

Wonder how this will end up.....

[TR] [TD][SIZE=10pt]Dear weso0119, I have now paid you for this lovely coat after eBay finally resolved to end the open case in my favour and pay me missing funds. I ask however that you please help me in avoiding utterly outrageous customs charges this end and mark the parcel as a low cost gift. I'd be very grateful if you please support this request as I am tiring of paying double the cost of items in top of madly exuberant s&h. My regards - arrabbiati33[/TD] [/TR][/SIZE]
[COLOR=FF0000]Dear arrabbiati33,

Thanks for your great communication and payment. As for your request, I must decline. As stated in my terms and conditions, I will not mark purchased items as gifts on customs forms or alter the values, as it is both unethical and unlawful to do so.

Thanks for your business,
Wesley [/COLOR] Dear weso0119,
That's a shame Wes as its gonna cost double to collect which I think we could've navigated. Ethics do not feature here as far as I'm concerned just good cheap service which includes the way in which the item is handled. Shame really.

Might have to....my wife has been bugging me to get her a new laptop anyway. She could have mine and I could switch. I would just have to buy all new CAD software for it....

Nope the buyer already paid, and it was shipped.

It probably will. But mainly because your chest measurement isn't for a 42R.

+1...a 21" p2p is a 42" chest, which indicates a 40R, not 42. Gotta have room to breathe in there.

 

[Orgetorix]

+1. At least 40R, maybe even 38-39. Modern cuts often have 3-4" extra breathing space in the chest.

In your experience, BIN sells higher? I set my auctions to start at what my BIN will be so if anything gets bid up, it's gravy, like the Robert Graham shirt I sold practically at retail that I would have never listed BIN at $80. The only down side is the relisting fee when things don't sell, so it's a balancing act between pricing things so they will sell without too many relists, and keeping my prices up when they sell with only one bid.

Dang, all of your listings make mine feel inadequate.

I really need to step up my photography... Must get studio lighting and backdrop setup that doesn't involve my on-camera flash and a blanket.

The only feedback:

Quick response and fast payment. Perfect! THANKS!!



What should I do? Message him and make sure he's not going to pull a fast one on me? He already paid, but that doesn't make me feel any better.
