This could be trouble.
I recently found out how to work ebay. Don’t laugh!
I don’t think it’s a good thing, that I know how it works now. It’s pretty identical to etsy — the homemade place where I have been buying clothes, and Christmas presents for the past two years. Ebay is exactly the same, but etsy is a lot more user-friendly to navigate.
On my first purchase, I did the “buy it now” as the auction wasn’t available. I’m glad I did it, because I didn’t like the stress of knowing people are willing to pay more than me on a certain item.
This gorg, lululemon “Run:Race Tech” tank. It’s coming from Florida. Neat huh? I’m currently bidding on two things.
Ruehl white purse (is Ruehl going out of business?):
… and these Lululemon Run Empower Crop II’s (yes, the same one’s just a different color!). I think I’m losing this one though. The people need to understand they can just order them online, right now. For LESS than what it’s going on ebay. Tsk tsk tsk.
I’m not willing to go over a certain amount of $$$ dollas, which I like. I don’t have to keep checking back and bidding. I’ll know if I won, if I won.
Have you ever used ebay for buying or even selling? I think you could make a few bucks here and there. Especially if you’re a Lululemon addict like I am. I could buy all the things in the loot section and then go and sell them on ebay — new with tags — for double the money. I’m not that interested in doing it though. It’s silly what some of the stuff sells for or even what sort of stuff even goes up on ebay, like a free life insurance quote.
Bad things come in 3’s
Why must that happen? Why can’t good things come in three’s and bad things just happen one at a time? I tell you, it’s very frustrating. Let me get situated here and tell you all about my mini-ordeals going on this week.
One: Last Thursday I received a “Final Notice” Canada Post packaging slip in my apartment mail box (in the door slot), and since I had already been to the post office a day prior, waiting for the lunchtime rush, I decided to wait until the weekend to pick up my parcel. Safe bet, seeing as it said on the notice itself that it will be held until December 19. I went in and showed my postal slip and it wasn’t there. Same thing happened to a girl earlier that day. My parcel was either sent back or never retrieved. Um, I only received the mail slip 3 days ago. The postal worker took my slip of paper and wrote down my telephone number for someone to call me in the morning — Monday morning. No one bothered to call me yesterday about it, so I phoned them myself … a few times. I decided to finally leave a voice mail. Again, no returned phone call. I called this morning and left another (fierce) voice mail. If I don’t hear back from them today, I’m going IN again. Waste of my time, but where the EFF did my package go? Seriously.
Two: I ordered a couple of things on Etsy from Bejing on October 31. A day after someone else had ordered the same bracelets online, but she was located in Texas. Texas lady had already received her bracelets weeks ago. While I’m going on week 8 waiting for mine. I e-mailed the Etsy seller asking for my money back as I stated in 3 previous convo’s to her that it was a Christmas present and would be TOTALLY useless if I received it after the fact. “Let’s wait one more week and then we’ll see what’s happened” she replies. Wait until December 21 to get my money back? Okay. Negative feedback for you as well? Okay. Guaranteed. I ordered it way in advance of the Christmas rush in order to get it before Christmas arrives. I’ll never be ordering from her again.
Three: In September I subscribed to 3 different magazines from a co-workers child who was giving out discounted magazine prices from a catalog. I picked Elle, Flare and Real Simple. In late November my credit card was debited $55 — to cover the cost of the three magazines. Yesterday I received a bill in the mail from Elle asking me to pay the subscription fee. I was confused because I had already paid for the full 12 month issues for all three magazines. I tried searching Elle Canada’s website for a phone number to call, but couldn’t locate one. So I decided to shoot them an e-mail. Of course I no longer have that proof of purchase from my subscription because it was debited $55 from my credit card. I better get my magazines, or my money back.
Why do I feel like I’m being screwed over in every way possible?
Where’s the flood?
Full of fail fashion all this week. My pants shrunk? Clearly, I need to go out and get some new winter pants. I love however, that I am wearing one of my top finds on etsy. This necklace is super gorgs, and I bought it here.
Do you ever get a nervous stomach for the unknown? Fear the unknown. That’s what I’m all about :(
When I go to a new Doctor and I’m waiting in the examining room and I don’t know if he’s young, old, grumpy… all of the above. I get nervous. I get so nervous, that I’m literally sick to my stomach. That is what my stomach is feeling like today — a jumble ball of mess. It doesn’t have to be because I’m going to a Doctor’s appointment, it could easily be something like: SIGNING UP FOR THE GYM. The gym that I used to attend (and quit, in May 2008 lol) is in the same building that I work. My boyfriend’s office is 300 meters way and we’re planning to head back home and pick up our gym stuff (because we conveniently forgot it this morning) heading back so we I can start losing some body fat % (he’s a triathlete, he has like 1% B.F!) . I don’t have anything to be scared of except for the fact that I’m extremely competitive with myself and I try and go further and harder than the last time. I feel like I plateau, but I really don’t because I never work out for more than 8 months at a time. I want to break that record. I want to make a life changing decision and have a life style change. I don’t want to be an unfit elderly person. Since I can’t play soccer anymore for a while, I need a new activity! Sitting on the couch all the time just won’t cut it. Stop. Being. Lazy. Your pants need to fit you, Nancy!
I had a dream the other night that I won my first Triathlon. I think that pushed me over the edge…
