eBay My World: shopathomealot( 698)

Read my ME info by clicking on me next to my feedback numbers. But if I had to say in short here...I am a nice person, fair, honest, and patient. I love ebay, although I don't always like the sellers who have been less than honest and even greedy!

Just about everything! I have hundreds of things to list but not enough time as it takes 1/2 hour to list one thing for me. BUT, I do have jewelry, teddy bears, womens/mens/girls/infants clothing, photo frames, pokemon cards, nintendo games, videos, dvds, vhs movies, vases, jewellery boxes, books, antiques, vintage items, tea cups, toys, seasonal holiday things, china, crystal, linens, and more, more, more. I am going to sell more huge lots.

Everything! I am an avid ebay shopper and have spent alot of time and money on ebay!! I hardly ever go out to shop anymore. I can get EVERYTHING I need, want and more right here on ebay, including my clothing, new and used! I have only been disapointed about a dozen times in buying over 800 items.

I really don't collect anything, although I do like things with birds on them. Lately I have been interested in real paintings from Paris, France, and also in gathering some Enid Blyton books, especially the older ones as she is my favourite author and I would like to introduce the books to my own family.

English

My favorite book of all time is called THE MIRROR, and it is about a girl and her grandmother who switch places in time into each others bodies because of a freakish mirror. But it is not scary. I found it very exciting with all the differences in time. LOVED it. I also like Mary Higgans Clark books and Enid Blyton books.

My favorite movies, hmmmmm, Forever Young is probably close to the top as well as Ghost when it comes to romantic. Action would be The Bourne Supremecy Series, and any Claude Van Dame (spelling?) movies (the guy is so sexy). For interesting and mind bending, I loved The Butterfly Effect. For moving the soul, I liked Contact. And of course the adventure I really liked is Pirates of the Carribean - The Black Pearl (the first movie) Johnny Depp with sexy Johnny Depp. For comedy, there have been quite a few, I think my favorite was Uncle Buck and another around the same time...it was called Parenting with Steve Martin ...hmmm...I will have to look that one up and watch it again. I also liked and still like Bill and Teds Excellent Adventure and Back to the Future -(mostly the first one). GOSH, IF I THINK ABOUT THIS TOO MUCH THERE ARE QUITE A FEW!

I have not really listened to much of anything since my Mom passed away in 2001 as I get sad from music as it has so many reminders. I have always liked from long ago, Fleetwood Mac and the BeeGees. I like Enya, and I like Cher and Billy Joel. I like two of the girls who won American Idol that my kids listen to, but my mind is blocked as to the name....oh! Kelly Clarkson, and also the blonde who does country style? I like all types of music, Rock and Roll, Country, Jazz and some of the Classical, as well as the oldies, Frank Sinatra and Elvis.

Update 2012 ...I really love The Walking Dead Series, and its not because of all the zombies. (in fact I close my eyes), but it is because it has always been a curiosity to me how people would survive if the world were to be in a state of complete break down in any way. This show has so much more to it than the walking dead... it has the walking living which is what keeps it going for me... how people interact and survive. I like to think there is some positive in everything, but how can a world like this heal itself, and of course it cannot or there would be NO show... Arrrgh.

To Travel, but that is a whole other story. See my (me) info at the top of my auctions or next to my feedback to learn why it may never happen. I can still dream though.

I really enjoy sales and have been doing sales since I was 15 years old. (THAT is a lot of years of experience!) THIS is the hardest I have ever worked for the littlest financial return, and it gets me down sometimes, but I cannot work outside the home anymore. Each auction that I collect $25 for (item AND shipping) I pay $4 to $5 in FEES, so I only start to make any money AFTER the $5 mark. IF I have calculated the shipping too low and my buyer is not very understanding about the real costs, then I am usually out of pocket. I DO love the challenge, just not the beatings I take sometimes with all the work and no play, no pay! That said, thanks to all my bidders and supporters! I have SO much vintage or antique or collectable stuff to list yet.....!!!!

PAY YOUR FINAL INVOICE WITHIN 24 HOURS AND I SEND YOU A FREE THANKS FOR YOUR SPEEDY PAYMENT GIFT!! DO NOT pay invoice until you are done shopping if buying as a combined shipping parcel. I accept Paypal. Contact me if you have bid and don't have paypal, and perhaps there is something we can do.

I ship within 48 hours of payment, unless a holiday or weekend, then I wait until first open postal day. SOMETIMES I do take 3/4 days to get something out to the post office if my illness is really flared up and my hubby is working then I have no way to get out. But this is rare, and parcels have all arrived in good time. LOCAL PICKUP IS FREE BUT AT MY CONVENIENCE DUE TO MY ILLNESS. Please message me or email me at shopathomealot@yahoo.ca

I only do returns (in the form of a merchandise credit) on things that are clearly misrepresented by me. So I guess you could say I do not do returns. Because all has been great. SEE MORE INFO in ANY of my auctions... JUST CLICK ON THE LINK AT THE TOP OF AUCTION PAGE...THAT SAYS....RETURNS,etc.

I like to be contacted only through the message system on ebay as I don't check the email often. There is no need with this system.

Send me a message if you have any questions. I try to answer everyone within 8 hours. Thanks

Let me know if you are looking for something? I might have it and can list it for you. THANKS FOR TAKING AN INTEREST IN ME AND MY EBAY. PLEASE MARK ME TO YOUR FAVORITE SELLERS EVEN IF YOU HAVE NOT BOUGHT FROM ME AND THEN YOU CAN CHECK BACK QUICKLY AND OFTEN WITHOUT FORGETTING ME!!
