Anyone recognize this Cantarelli label? Is this a mainline suit that is fully canvased?

It is! I actually tried to respond to your question multiple times on the app after writing two messages, but it kept throwing up an error every time I tried to send it.

As soon as I can get to a desktop, I'll try again, but it is half-canvassed.

Maybe a weird question: You know how some ties come with a tiny straight-pin that holds the folds together on the lining side? They can be useful with 7-folds to keep them from splaying open. Does anyone know EXACTLY what these are called, and better, where to get them? When I go on a sewing supply website, the variety of straightpins is usually overwhelming, without a good way to search for such a specialized use. Anyone?

Got my first negative from a first time buyer. Accepted his lowball offer by mistake but I still honored the sale. Horrible mistake.

Spoke to 5 different reps so far. They all agree that I did nothing wrong but feedback is an opinion and can't be removed as per ebay guideline.

Case was opened for item not received and closed in 10 mins by him. Any ideas on getting this removed?

question regarding recognizing expenses. wife's taking a business trip to the midwest in a couple weeks. i was thinking of taking a couple days to go up there with her considering the hotel will be paid for and she'll have a meal allowance and i would have a couple days fully dedicated to thrifting. is there anything wrong with recognizing the cost of the flight as a business expense? i'd basically be thrifting the entire time she's working and that would be the main point of the trip.

You guys ever get done taking photos, upload to computer and discover 1 tiny hair or piece of lint photobombing your otherwise beautiful shot?

Seems legit to me. You should also be able to write off any additional costs with regards to traveling around while you're there (rental cost, gas money, etc.).

Well, after 14 years on eBay it's finally happened...my first ever SNAD/INAD case against me. Item was a BNWT overcoat.

Buyer:

• Joined on date of sale
• Located in a different country to me
• 0 feedback
• Different payment name on Paypal to delivery name
• Claims item was not BNWT and "covered in stains"
• Claims I never responded to messages when every message was responded to promptly
• Opened SNAD/INAD case immediately upon receipt of item without communicating with me
• Slightly different delivery address spelling to actual correct delivery address supplied by google maps
• Claims package was damaged in transit, although signed for package on delivery of goods
• Hasn't (so far) supplied anything to support these claims

I've spoken with eBay at length about my concerns and their response was effectively "call back in a few days".

Buyer wants a full refund but this is a 100% scam. I don't want to give back the money as I'm incredibly sure I'll be out of both that and my product.

Any ideas as to what I should do?

But photo managers have a tool to fix it that takes 2 seconds

Idiot thinks I am gonna work with him after giving me a neg

If a buyer is taking their sweet time to pay for something, can I decide to re-list it while I wait? Or do I have to cancel? Basically I don't want the item to be off the market while a buyer waits around until their payment deadline passes.
