I'm with Stupid --->

Sigh.

SIGH.

At the moment I am playing email ping-pong (or is it table tennis?) with an eBay customer who is upset that her parcel hasn't arrived yet.

eBay for Beginners: Part I

I have a love-hate relationship with eBay.

I have spent thousands of dollars buying clothing, shoes, electronics, makeup, arts & crafts and pet accessories from the auction site. Nothing beats the thrill of winning an auction. Unfortunately, that thrill can turn to despair when you realise that you overspent your weekly food budget on designer pet tags and fancy paint brushes. Especially when your cat doesn't even wear a collar and you have zero artistic talent...

Question: Are these boots grey? Do you have any other colours?

What I should have replied: Boots? What boots? These are gloves! And they are so obviously yellow!

I have little patience on the best of days but I'm coughing up lungs here and for some unfathomable reason it seems the landlord has decided today is "Make intolerable noises in the stairwell with a broomstick" Day... so give me a fucking break and use the few brain cells you have remaining to ANSWER YOUR OWN STUPID QUESTION.

Bah, humbug!!

Random eBay Rant

I super excited last week to have purchased a brand new Stella McCartney silk top from eBay for a mere $10. Less thrilled to find it in my mailbox this afternoon in a shitty A4 PAPER ENVELOPE, soaked through to the equally crappy plastic sleeve- you know, those ones you use for school?
