Well, sure, but it's for the image, not because she's actually scared. Nobody around here is gonna be scared of lil ole me

i can be scared if thats what you want. *bats lashes and looks innocent*

*swallows* Yeah, that innocent look, that works too. Fearful works for the image I'm thinkin' of, but I like that eyelash-batting, innocent look too.

Well, I'm really very good at that innocent look! Can I come along with KC? Purty please? *bats eyelashes to prove how innocent I can look*

Dear me,

You've put a lot of symbolism into today, and rightfully so I think. This is a big step for you. You've been afraid of this simple little things for quite a long time, and while piercing your belly button may not totally concer your fear of needles, it might help with the fear of piercing.

This is also a big step in your relationship with two very special people. Maybe this will help you to rely on them, call on them when you need them. But you have to come out and ask. You can't just wait for them to volentere to be there for you if you don't let them know you need them. You asked them to help you with this, and they are, and they will be there for you the whole time, and long after. You get the whole day to be excited, show off, cry, and feel what ever other emotion comes over you, and you'll do it with their suport. I know you've never had friends that really lasted long, and who were there when things were rough, but these guys are really ready to stick it out with you; they have already proven that.

You have concored so much this year. Just look at you. Your apartment is YOUR apartment. You are the only one on the lease, you are the only one paying the bills, you, you did it. You got one more step up the ladder, we both know how hard it was to get to that step, and how hard it's been once you got there, but you're there baby. Yes it is tough now, you know how hard it was to get this far, well it's going to be just as hard to make it up the next step, or even get out of there if that's what you really want. The point is, you can do it. You're not the inexperienced little house wife looking for a part time job any more. You have experience, you made it to 2nd assistant in 30 months, that's less then 3 years you went from being a part time no body to 3rd in charge. That's big stuff baby girl.

I know you still have questions about what you want out of life, what you want as a career, and even the posibility of going back to school, but you have time. You are still young. And you know you have it in you to accomplish anything. This was a big year, and you've come out of it a shining star.

I'm proud of you.

wenchie

I just wanted to tell you how much I loved reading this post of yours! Your words really resonated with me, and I'm so very proud of you, too!! I think it's great that you're able to say that you're proud of yourself, as well.

Two nights ago I was doing reading homework with my just-turned-eight-in October niece, and when she didn't miss ANY words at all and improved her reading time by quite a bit, I made a big deal of it. I kept telling her how proud of her I was, etc, but she didn't seem too impressed. I finally asked her if she was proud of herself, and she shrugged her shoulders and said no. That broke my heart, so I think it's FABULOUS that you're able to recognize your achievements and be proud of yourself for them!! CONGRATULATIONS, Wenchie!!!!!

Dear Nit-Picky Person,

I am terribly sorry the condition statement in the item you purchased was confusing. I agree it could have been worded more clearly, and am sorry you are unhappy with your purchase. Given that the flaw you found was LISTED IN THE FREAKING AUCTION, I feel it was perfectly reasonable to offer you a partial refund as a compromise, but of course I'm willing to refunding in full, plus shipping both ways.

Now that that politeness is over with...

Seriously - chill. You got a freaking 100% cashmere wool sweater for under $30 (with shipping). There is no reason to call me unethical, no reason to tell me I'm an "obviously shady seller" or that I'm intentionally ripping people off. It's called communication/counter offer to allow us to both walk away satisfied. I'm sorry you feel "excellent" vintage condition = 50-year-old-fresh-from-WalMart, and sometimes it seems like it does, but not always. Our condition statements are present at the bottom of every auction; Excellent is rated as having minor flaws but being perfectly wearable... which (IMO) the sweater is. I have almost 500 transaction feedback under my belt, I'm an 'effing PowerSeller, my feedback is ONE HUNDRED PERCENT POSITIVE (you twit), and my stupid (whythefuckdideBayevencreateit) star ratings show a customer satisfaction of roughly 4.8 stars out of 5. Is it beyond your comprehension that a person could make ONE mistake in over 650 total fucking transactions? Would it KILL you to have shown a bit of grace and understanding instead of going all Mommy Dearest on me?

GAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!

I do not make enough money to be treated like this... sigh.

Except for the sake of wanting to preserve the positive rating as a Power Seller............. you are way TOO nice CutieMouse.
Flaw was listed? Pfffft.... If it were me, and up to me.. I'd have told them to go effing fuck themselves.

Asswipe probaly didn't bother to read.. so serves them right. People are so lazy and do not read. idiots...

I sold a batch of toy soldiers once what had afew that were broken. I took pics of them. I described the breaks. I had a bidder ask about the breaks, and gave more detail, which was posted to the auction. That same damne dbidder bought the bacth , and then pitched a fit because... they were broken, and were broken in the way I described. He assumed that it wasn't as bad as I thought. Note - none of these toy soldiers were antiques or collectors items, and they were broken in a way that was absurdly easy for any modeller to fix. Dick-for-brains apparently figured that both I and the pics were lying to him.

 

[graceanne]

OMG - gracie has finally figured out her place in the world!

 

[graceanne]

Oh no... I politely quoted the part of the listing that stated the flaw, plus the part of the listing which contains our condition chart - showing that "Excellent" condition = noted minor flaws, but wearable - when I offered her a partial refund + free shipping if she chose to buy from us again. She ignored all that and went back to ranting on about how horrible a person I am and in her opinion Excellent should mean brand new unworn condition, even in a sweater from c1962...

I don't mind someone being upset with their purchase... I do mind being accused of having no ethics or integrity - that was just rude.

Don't you get to rate the buyer, too?

I'm sorry you were treated in such a crappy way. Some people enjoy taking out their misery on others. I hope she didn't screw up your good rating with nasty and untrue remark about you.

 

[Sir_Winston54]

"Buyer apparently has trouble reading English, especially parts that say 'This is in "Excellent Vintage Condition,' which equals 'having minor flaws but being perfectly wearable.'"

Dear You,

Can we send a copy of this memo to Walmart... ? I found myself humming along with Martina McBride singing Silver Bells yesterday....

 

[NALA CAYENNE]

I second this emotion. I went to Odd Lots and Walmart this weekend and saw more Christmas than I cared to see so early in November.

Can folks at least wait until Thanksgiving?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
