pamster, thanks so much for checking. I kept refreshing my page and it wouldn't show and it was driving me CRAZY. Maybe it takes them a while to refresh their database. What's flickr? And thanks again for getting my back! ;D As Spordelia said, it's a photo hosting site. It's pretty neat and not too hard to use. I'll PM you my address if you want to see my stuff. Thanks you guys, I'd never heard of that one. I figured that I could use Photobucket but that works, too. I'd love to see your stuff, please PM me!

Does anyone ship overseas? I have to ship one package to Germany and another to Great Britain and it's making me nervous.

As a Canadian, I have to say I don't understand why shipping outside the US seems to freak out so many US sellers! I now just use a US-based friend's address to get everything shipped to. I can see being worried if you were shipping it somewhere with a dodgy postal service but shipping to the UK and Germany just involves filling out a customs form. It's really easy, trust me!

Also, please, all those with listings can you post links? I want to see what my fellow Greecies are selling!
GG I think you're getting the eBay buzz. Watching an item get lots of bids is sooooo addictive and exciting. As is winning a heavily-contested auction. The psychology of it all definitely works in eBay's favour - I've paid more than I wanted, initially, for an item a few times just because I had to WIN.

Here is the jewelry I'm selling. It's very good quality costume jewelry, I just happen to have some almost identical to it.

Here's what I'm selling.I'm hoping to get at least $100 for the Yoda. fairfox, I just find the US Postal Service so confusing. I always have the feeling I'm paying more than I should.

Maybe people don't want to ship overseas because they're afraid the cost of the shipping and insurance would be way too much and there would be more of a chance of things getting smooshed in an airplane hold during shipping? When I was setting up an account one of my friends told me to put that. If I was selling something smaller and lighter I probably wouldn't put that. If I was selling jewelry or something then I wouldn't worry as much about things breaking. ETA: Up to 22 watchers. Of course I know that pamster is one of them, but at least I have that many which is really exciting. I've got the buzz something fierce fairfox!

Just making sure someone doesn't try to pull a fast one on ya! Thanks, I wouldn't know about that yet but I'm only taking Paypal payments because I don't want to deal with checks not going through or whatever. I'm getting so addicted. I got a really funny question from a potential buyer. All it said was "Who's the dude?" Haaa... But I should have put his name it in the listing (Dr. John, by the way). ETA: 23 watchers now. I don't know if that's good but it seems like it is. I'll post the new photos tomorrow.

I shipped a box of 8 track tapes to Germany a few years ago. I was wary- I got the buyer's town and went to the post office and they quoted me a cost $63. But he paid it! I have fond memories of Uwi.

Geez! Although it's not that surprising, I guess - shipping to Austria for me is really, really expensive. Which is why I avoid doing it whenever possible!
