Maybe What...?

RECESSION: For some people it is the time for cutting down and cutting back. , Although I do this a little during the interim period, I come from a background of belief in myself, so I have to find a way to make more money and not do this, to ultimately live a better life in THIS situ or whatever situation... so.. time to beat the recession ..

Ebay - Tried that been there and the trouble is that if your 2nd hands good are label and brand name - they gonna shut you down quick time - and time and time again they gonna track you and shut you down - their charges are high - dont get me wrong there is profit to be made here, but with tons of patience... no time to waste here..
Next!....

On-Line Betting - Tried that too - tripled my money in a week - so it IS possible - but VERY risky - lost it all a few weeks later- really depends if your heart and your bank balance can take it and I decided to get out before finding out - could've been a millionaire, shoul've tried harder, would've had a chateau - all coulda woulda shoulda to me - I knew instinctively (and through forums) it wasnt a good thing.
Next....

Shares - So Far Very Exciting, far less risky, in fact perfect for someone like me - I quickly popped over to London and attended a little seminar to learn some more, got back, learned a bit and chose/earmarked some - they are rising! I am waiting to do it with REAL money. I bought a few shares last month before I knew how it works properly and thank goodness they are making money too... so all good but have to ACT NOW - GET IT WORKING!!!

Maybe its the answer - watch this space!

How to get round your Ebay Ban ...

Forget paying 20 pounds for the information in an e-book - if you like what you read below, please click on one of my adsense links on this page.

So, you are reading this because you have probably been banned from Ebay like I was a couple of times... mostly totally my own fault selling my old designer goods without the receipts so the ebay police think that they are dodgy. And then the last shutdown was totally unfair - awarded by four bad feedbacks - from the same buyer who wanted me to reduce my postage by an unreasonable 23 euros.

So can we start again?
YES

1. You need to clear the cookies on your PC first.

On your internet browser to to TOOLS - CLEAR PRIVATE DATA - and check - CLEAR COOKIES..

This gets rid of the massive 59 cookies that Ebay manages to set on your system.

2. Get a new email account

Use hotmail or yahoo, simple and free

3. Get a new paypal account

Use your new email address to open a new paypal account.
(Add a new bank/credit card so that you will be able to trade on Ebay - if you only have one bank card you will need to go into your old paypal account, empty your funds and close the old paypal account with that card attached before you continue)

4. Open a new ebay account

Use the new email address, the new paypal account and you should be up and running straight away.

After all these times of being banned and trying to reopen my account by getting one or the other of the above sorted out - I realise that you DO need to go back to the root and delete the cookies and get new everything to proceed on Ebay without incurring repeat problem within 48hrs or so.

Ebay Shop - Ebay warning!

For about six months I have been building up a lovely little ebay Boutique as we call it here in France, selling my designer tops old and new, venturing into gadgets and electricals and finding it to be a fairly profitable way to experience all the NEW things on the market.

My shop was ticking over nicely when BANG

Ebay decided to shut me down for the sale of chanel tops.. which maybe they were counterfeit - who knows, i bought them in good faith and they were lovely garments which people were quite happily bidding on... my car was up there with bidders too...

I read on google that its almost impossible to get re-opened once this happens. But having been suspended in the past i was determined to get my account opened, sent at least 10 emails to ebay and was then instructed to send a fax confirming my details, which i did and I'm fairly happy to say...

My account has been reopened HOORAY

I am still fighting with ebay for all my adverts that i had already paid for to put up in my shop that no longer exist, watch this space for further advice...

La Poste ou la banque?

Well.. they make me laugh..
An average day (of an ebaying mum) involves a trip to La Poste, not the quickest establishment in the world as you can imagine.. open with very strict hours and as im finding rules too...
You could be in line for up to 40 minute while people pay in 50 euros and draw out 20.. its incredible....

The gucci lady at the post office down the hill says she CANNOT send anything other than a letter at letter price... which involves a colissimmo at 4.30e minimum but the older lady at the village up the hill one can send whatever for whatever... to a point, so i may send a couple of items for 3 stamps.. like 1.62e or whatever.

Then... the next time i have to pick up an item and it happens to be down the hill so i decide to send my 2 parcels while im there... madame gucci sets some rules.. she is going to be on her own behind the counter like every afternoon and one morning so dont be coming here with more than one colissommo at a time, none of my usual 10 parctels to send... i always arrived totally organized having got the slips the last time and filled them out prior to my arrival, all she has to do is weigh and scan and add and take the money - its really not rocket science, and SHE IS A POST OFFICE AFTER ALL - but it IS too much to ask!

At this point i pinch myself and check, yes I AM IN THE POST OFFICE, and yes I HAVE WAITED HALF AN HOUR, and most of the people before me have in fact been dealing with their POSTAL bank accounts.. it hardly seems fair.

I want to send parcels and now i will be restricted to only some afternoons to do this!?

Now, mostly I only go to La Poste up the hill be i feel that they may have had their xmas lunch or met up as she has stopped accepting parcels as letters and i now have to pay the full price.

So.. i have a new scam.. i buy stamps and put them on and post things in the box outside after i have paid for the obviously too large to fit through the post box slot items. I know its silly but somehow I have to stand up for my principles and my mum always said count the pennies and the pounds will come.. though im not sure about how true this is! LOL
