Pay Pal Masters of Ebay and fees uncalled for

[poppyrowan]

Steve, your gold plated bars have misleading titles and descriptions (being generous)

When someone overpays for this garbage you may have trouble with their payment

I would have assumed the items were solid gold from the description

Are they not gold??? And then this is the very reason why Paypal are holding onto people's funds. If thet aren't gold then what are they??

Surely all we know so far is that one person has listed a gold bar, and another person has said it's only plated. There is no evidence or explanation to let us decide which position is right, is there?

It hadn't occured to me that i wouldn't be anything but gold but assumed that others knew differently

But they've given no reason for "knowing", no basis for their assertion. I can't see anything that justifies an assumption either way. But then, I wouldn't be buying gold bars anyway.

See i would buy gold bars - maybe not at the moment but then that would depend on the quality of the gold and the price.

I adore handmade jewellery - why pay an highstreet price for a piece of gold when you can have a bespoke piece made that is completely individual and costs a fraction.

I'd rather buy the gold, diamonds, stones etc and have summat made up - so I was rather interested in that chunk although it not being in gold grades that I am familiar with i stopped myself - at that price hitting the buy button :-)

Not that i have had much made up BUT have lots of stones and waste gold ready to have stuff made, just need more gold to get to the weight that i need.

Good heavens... if you can afford that price, what on earth are you doing hanging around here with us pedlars?

Well i'd not checked to see if it was a good price or not BUT I know that i should get a far better deal on a block of gold than buying it as jewellery and I am all for investements

Now I must eat my messages in case my hubby reads cos he really bdoesn't need to know about my shopping habbits

I have been good for the past 6 years, i did used to have a bit of a problem with buying things that sparkle.

And that is canadian gold maple which, i have never really seen before and so may be an excellent price and quality compared to gold we have in the UK :-)
