aww.wardy-ne'er mind chuck ;)-i'm so paranoid about not diddling people i usually pay the postage myself-i dont trade on ebay tho......i try not to be cynical about peoples motives and what not but they  usually give me ple-e-e-enty  to be cynical about :-\ >:(
13 years olds are a bvit different to when i was 13....why-we were happy with a whip and top-bowling our hoops along.....and a sniff of a kipper fer supper.

I've been reading thios thread with great interest.I'm afraid I take things at face value & trust people. I hope that I continue to do that because despite examples otherwise, most people are fair.

You have to watch yourself on ebay as there are some pigs on there.  I thought the postage charged was fair after they'd weighed the parcel being sent.
According to my husband who spends alot of time on Ebay most people are straight but you do have to look at the postage carefully. Some sellers inflate the postage because that isn't suject to Paypal charges.

I put one on there this morning, it was posted and has now disappeared. The board is obviously monitored, and they don't want it filed up with our messages. They have left one on there tho.

He's hopefully been rumbled and they won't be sending him any more freebies.

He goes back quite a way asking for free seeds.  Cheek, more front than Selfridges!

Been following this thread very carefully and found it a bit disturbing. I'm glad that I've been having to wait for my seed to ripen otherwise I might have been caught out. I certainly WON'T be letting A13 have any of my seed  >:(

It reminds me of "Can you spare some change for a cuppa, guv?"

I have met one member from here (because it is such a small world!) and glad the mint worked out well. I have sent and received seeds to/from a few nice people here and have lost track of whether I have sent or received more (not that it matters to me). But then, I have got to know them a bit through posts and messenger and feel that they have become my friends. Reminds me - if it stops raining, I need to get to the post office to send 2 lots off.

Thinking of ordering some hairy balls - anyone want some but too afraid to order?!!! Madmum - would be quite a feature in a school - can hear the sniggers already!

I think no more messages concerning Adam13 should be posted in the T&M guestbook
