eBay Mi mundo: kestraub( 4868)

I am a Christian wife, mom and ebayer. I love Lord and feel He has blessed me with being able to stay at home raising our kids by helping out doing ebay.

I love tins. I have quite a collection. Not worth much but I enjoy the advertising on them. I also collect pez. Before I was married and living out on my own, I couldn't afford much. So Pez were inexpensive so I started collecting them many years ago. The kids aren't allowed to play with them and thats just not fair you know. I still pick one up every once in awhile. My favorite collection is good deeds. I believe they can be a rare thing these days. Just random acts of kindness that only you & your Creator know you did. Its a good feeling and it doesn't take up alot of space!

My hobbies, well my family. There is not much time for anything else. I am a Girl Scout Leader, soccer mom and lead diaper changer.I enjoy to sew or golf if time and money does not play a part. I miss the sound of the ping and watching the golf ball soar through the air. I will enjoy my kids learning these skills and sharing the hobbies as a family. Right now clubs are a weapon for the toddler to use on his sister.

The bible. It never gets old. I also enjoy this book called, List to Live by. Moms should be issued one of each. Its a good balance.

I love music. All kinds. Uplifting, soulful or just fun & loud! I love to sing. I won't win a contest but my kids love it.

TCM, AMC or Reality shows. I love the old sitcoms from the sixties. Could watch them all day. Now that I have been doing ebay for awhile, I watch to see the back ground items & accessories. It helps when I am out and about looking for lost treasures.

I have been doing ebay since 2001 and have enjoyed it. I have come across some really nice people and just a couple of not so nice. Ebay was a great invention. It has created quite the stir in our society. The cyberspace garage sale. I love it and happy to be apart of it. I try and treat buyers & sellers they way I would appreciate to be treated. I am flexible and fair yet at the same time not willing to be walked all over.

I prefer checks & money orders. Paypal is great and quick but they also have fees for the seller. I am tring to keep as many pieces of the pie at home that I can.

I do try and ship often and timely. Some days they don't go as planned but it will get shipped. Insurance is offered and rarely required but I can not be held accountable once it leaves my home. I do usually charge .25-.50 for handling. If I have to use bubble wrap then the charge is more. That is just covering the bubble stuff. Its not cheap. Newspaper is most often used to keep shipping cost low. I believe that too many people make money off of shipping and not the item that they are selling. Why do I charge the .25-.50? I use an old food scale from the 40's-50's and it is not real accurate and for the poly bags for clothing or padded envelopes used for smaller items.

If I really failed to describe something and the buyer wants to return it then as long as I receive it back in the same condition I will return the purchase price.
