eBay My World: gnatelee( 1170)

I try to provide a safe and honorable way to share items that I have or that I have acquired that I am able to share with others. My main purpose for Selling is to help pay for my many prescription medications due to a degenerative condition.

An amalgamate of woman's fragrances, some designer purses, designer sunglasses, Victoria's Secret Items, 'Things that I hope others would want or have an interest in'. I am always open to discussion and change. Personally, I LOVE nice things, so generally I will sway toward items that I like and attempt to sell them.

Unfortunately, whatever is 'stuck' in my mind. I take the 'shoot to kill' path when I place bids. If I don't want something I do not usually bid; but when I do want something, I will do whatever it takes to win it. Of late, I am only buying what I can not drive to purchase most notedly wee wee pads for the dogs and a retractable key ring clip for me, the pads are for the dogs...Further, living on SSD now, really throws a wrench in the spokes of my eBaying.

English

Reading, studying and researching medical conditions, pharmacology, law, whatever I am interested in at the time. I also like to play Mah Jong.

The English Patient, After The Affair, Onegin, Oscar and Lucinda, Spider ~ anything with Ralph Fiennes, I believe him to be the next 'Lawrence Olivier'. I believe his acting to be brilliant and nothing short of that. He must have had a gun to his head when he singed on to be in Maid in Manhattan with Jennifer Lopez, but I have forgiven him.

From Rachmoninoff to The Future Sound of London, I also love movie soundtracks.

Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Bernie Mac, Cedric The Entertainer, America's Next Top Model (how embarrasing......)

I REALLY do take a personal interest in each and every person that writes to me with a question. I truly wish to make the eBay experience a pleasant one and beleive that, as in life, communication is the key to understanding. I have been known to send out the wrong package to the wrong Buyer on two occasions due to all the medications and how they affect my thinking. When this happens, I do EVERYTHING I can to correct the error. The one time this has happened everyone affected was very kind and my feedback remains at 100% positive. Again, communication is very effective, I don't beleive it is used enough on eBay. Some Sellers and Buyers just want 'the item' they will not communicate to a question or suggestion and that's alright for them, but not me.

Most of my adult life I have been in upper management/customer service. I have trained, written manuals, counceled and helped others to achieve Excellent Customer Service. The 'industry' is a dying breed, but there are a few of us left that really care about the customer.

PayPal Only

Usually USPS Priority Mail Service; First Class Mail (if item is under a pound). Some Media Mail if Item qualifies. I DO NOT SHIP OVERSEAS. (Because I don't know how.....)

No Return Policy, my business is way too small and many times I have nothing listed. I am always up for discussion, and if it is my error in a listing I will refund your money, but you must pay the shipping to send the item back to me.

I have never left bad feedback for another Seller or Buyer until recently and only when the Bidder is a 'No-Pay'. I leave them for the vultures that are much to ready to leave poor feedback without hearing what the other has to say in reference to a sale. As with most items it is a simple misunderstanding that can easily be resolved. I will always try to clear up any misunderstandings before I just jump at the chance to tear someone down for something that they may not have done. I have let bidders out of the Auction Process when I have been counceled not to; I try to put myself in the 'other fellows shoes'. I am sure I have been taken advantage of, but that comes with the territory and my 'outlook' is looking for the best in others.

These are people that live and breath. Not a cold computer screen. Most try thier hardest to stand behind thier items or are understanding when you wish to return something. I have made a very dear friend in Virginia through eBay and would not give that up for anything. Message to Mar: ''put that cigarette down'' !! ha !
