eBay My World: dayglowmamma( 16)

I am Bob, Queen of the taco people! In my spare time I am also an avid crafter, semi-profesional painter (translation-I've sold less than 20 of my paintings), comic book geek (yes, fangirls do exist), and I make a mean meatloaf.

I make cigar box purses. Some are unique one of a kind designs, and some I make in multiples. I list auctions where the purse is not yet made-the winning bidder can order the purse they want-even including their own photos in the design if they wish. The name of my budding purse empire-Addictive Accessories; and if the name makes you smile a bit to yourself as you think of your closets, you are my target consumer. I have also listed some comic books from my personal collection to raise funds for my new and (hopefully) growing business. From time to time I sell some of my paintings, usually when I find myself in need of canvas or paint. hehehehe.

Shoes, jewelry, Bettie Page memerobilia, anything neat.

Everything, please stop me before I start another collection.

English

comic books, painting, cooking, sleeping, world of warcraft

Anne Rice, Kelley Armstrong, P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast, and Raven Silvermoon.

Gone With the Wind, Drop Dead Fred, Green Card

House, Heros, Bones

I've just started my business. I have been making my own purses for years, and my friends and co-workers have loved them and told me I could sell them. So when I found myself injured and with tons of free time, I started Addictive Accessories. After selling some locally through friends and craft shows, I decided to move to the web and see if I can grow a bit more. I achived my last goals of selling my first purse online, and selling out of my home state of Michigan. Go me!!! My current goal is to get my seller feedback high enough to open an ebay store. There is no better rush than seeing someone carrying one of the purses I made. Well, there was the woman who recieved the purse she bought and called me just raving about how much she loved it. That was a pretty good rush too.

I use paypal. It's easy and safe, and I just learned to use the invoice tool to make it even easier for sales that aren't made on ebay.

I use the good old US Postal Service, specificly the Priority Mail service. I like getting my purchases fast, so I assume others are also impatient and love to get their stuff fast too.

For my purses, I accept returns within 3 days of the buyer recieving them, unless personal photos were used to create the purse. The buyer can choose to either get a refund or exchange the purse for one of similar value. The reason I won't accept a return for purses using personal photos is that I can't resell a purse covered with someones personal photos, and would you really want some stranger walking around with your family photos anyway? I do not accept returns for collectables.
