I really hate being a seller.  Not only does it 
mean having to part with something, but it means 
having to deal with some of the gems e-bay 
dredges up.

I know this is next to nothing compared to what 
some people have gone through, but it just builds 
up to the point you want to vent a little and get 
that hint of reassurance that you are not alone  
=) 

Take this little example. Someone paid me via 
bidpay and never bothered to respond to any of my 
e-mails. So, I shipped out her items to the 
address furnished by bidpay. Well, they came back 
as "return to sender"  Several e-mail attempts 
later, she sends us the right address but doesn't 
want to pay for shipping a second time. 

It's not my fault that she was an idiot!  My 
sister is a lot nicer than I am about it, and it 
was her stuff we sold, but I want her to stick to 
her guns. I mean, I'd be expected to pay for 
shipping twice if I gave someone the wrong 
address. Shouldn't I expect the same?

I know it's not the end of the world, but 
shipping isn't cheap, and it's especially painful 
if you've got shell out the couple of bucks when 
you were selling stuff in the first place because 
you needed the money to continue to feed your cel 
addiction.

Anyone else out there have these kinds of 
troubles? I mean, you already ahve to specify 
everything and it's brother in your auction, 
should I have posted "you give me the wrong 
address to ship to and you have to pay for 
shipping again to the right address?"
