1) About me


Hello,
I'm a 60+ Mother, Grandmother and carer 

After many years of being both a buyer and a seller on that other auction site, 
years with a faultless record, I decided things 'over there' were going places I did Not want to go.
So, in order to have a more 'level playing field' I moved to also sellng on eBid.

Please be aware; I have faults... folks tell me I do not suffer fools gladly.
If you think that is a 'fault' then, Please, ... Do Not Bid.
'cause They Are Right!
LOL

When you 'win' one of my auctions you should be able to count on a good, speedy and efficient service, as that is what I would expect from anyone selling anything to me.

I'll most likely be selling items that no longer fit me or that I have 'grown out of' age wise... although some will be of the 'aging hippie' variety ... making them both 'Vintage' and 'Fashionable' to those in the know!
LOL
Other items will be 'pass alongs' from friends and relations (some of whom require 'compensation' for their actions!)  ;)

My partner, who is what Glaswegians call a 'Big Man', is also having a clearout of his wardrobe so you can expect large sized items of men's clothing which is both in good condition and which has been hanging in a wardrobe, unused and unworn, in many instances, for decades!

So,you can Grab Yourself a Vintage Menswear Bargain too!

Whatever I'm selling ~ I like to think the items are Always something I or my partner would be happy to wear or use ... as I always say, ...

Second Hand ~ Maybe - Second Best ~ Definitely Not!
~.~.~.~.~

Whenever I'm buying ~ I Expect to be treated the same way I treat others
We don't get around as much as we used to so here on eBid I'll be looking to buy clothes and nice things for my home...

~.~.~.~.~
 

• Whether I'm buying or selling ~ I like to experience a level of 'service' that meets with my own, rather high, standards.

.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

3) Feedback.  I always leave positive feedback for good buyers just as soon as I know they have received their items and how they feel about our transaction.

4) Returns Policy.  
I make it a policy of mine to accept returns.
However, for reasons of hygene, no jewelery or underwear item returns can be accepted.

I keep to UK distance selling regulations at all times.

For a refund of Item Price (not postage) you should return your item to to me in the condition in which you received it. The return package must be postmarked within 7 days of my posting date.
Postage charges are, in All cases, borne by the buyer.

International Returns
I only ever ship Internationally via Royal Mail Signed For (tracked).
Refunds will Only ever be agreed/offered when an item is received by me within 14 days of when it was shipped, providing it is rturned in the same manner and in the condition in which I shipped it (records are kept at all times).
I am not responsible for any 'damage in transit'.

I feel I should state once again;  it is my policy to only ever refund the Item price and Not shipping costs.

Non payers.
Due to Non payers costing we sellers a lot of wasted time and expense I have a zero tolerance policy. 

Non payers
*will be blacklisted
* reported to site admin
*their details shared with other sellers

I am reliably informed, non payers are usually banned from this site and have their ability to

make future online purchses restricted
