can you send me the link please!!! :D


Another thing you can try to do is periodically check out the link below here, at the bottom of the webpage, whenever you see "Trailer Park Boys Sale" .  This brings you to many TPB listings on eBay.  From there you can click on "Advanced Search", click the box beside Search title and description, scroll down and also search for Items available to United Kingdom.

This whole topic makes me sad. My little hometown's main street is now like a ghost town . . the Walmarts and other "big box" monster stores in a mall at the edge of town have totally destroyed dear old main street - where there were a couple of independent movie houses, great little cafes and tailor shops - now that's all boarded up and dead.

And I suspect our ebay purchases are the wrecking ball of personal contact in the marketplace of the future.
It's like ATMs or ABMs killed personal, one-on-one banking . . little by little technology isolates and minimizes real human contact. Ooooooooh :shock: !

Have you read it?  Have you have you?  There is a reason I have linked so many times, and it's related to why I am here in a forum to begin with, also many of you though you may not know it.  I may just have to make the link my signature or something.

To me, online shopping (whether it's eBay or another online selling venue) is no different than when corner stores started popping up everywhere and starting taking business away from local grocers.  It's also supporting free enterprise on a wide scale.

It saddens me, as well, when I see a local favourite store close down, but with the expanse of items available on the Internet (many that are hard-to or near-impossible to find anywhere else), it's something we can do little about :(

However, I am still personable with anyone purchasing from me, by email, and also to sellers I have purchased from.  Not much different than being personable in a forum or in a chat room.

JMHO, of course :)

Don't go with the insurance. What people don't realize is that everything under a certain dollar amount is already insured.

This is not completely accurate.  eBay automatically insures the value of the puchase between $25USD and $200USD.  Nothing more and nothing less.  To illustrate some possible claims:

$25 purchase = $0 refunded from eBay
$50 purchase = $25 refunded from eBay
$200 purchase = $175 refunded from eBay
$1,000 purchase = $175 refunded from eBay

You need to account for the fact that you will not receive the first $25 or any amount over $200 back from eBay when considering the purchase of additional insurance.

Some item paid for through PayPal receive additional protection (up to $1,000USD or $1,250CDN).  The seller has to meet certain criteria for this to apply.
