A bit like Windows update; how come they always work on my system?

It reminds me of Windows Me: how come it always worked flawlessly on my system?

the updates work because the system not used for work?

More importantly it is used for personal gain.

Maybe, if you sell weird stuff, you get weird buyers?

I sold a Hue Hub, so not too weird.

I used to buy and sell on eBay. Now I just buy.

Good advise, I may follow your example, there may be other better options though.

That's why I use tracked delivery: if it's signed for, I can prove postage, and delivery.
Never had a problem. Mind you, I don't sell much on FleaBay anyway.

Would that actually work if someone tried scamming you? AIUI Fleabay operates under a "the buyer is always right" policy; all they'd need to do is claim the driver delivered it to the wrong spot and someone else forged their signature to steal it.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I usually do, in this case I took the risk and offered slightly lower priced postage. Sadly it didn't pay off for the buyer or seller.
I'm sure a tracked parcel will have arrived OK. I wonder if these people search eBay for items offered with no tracked postage option, knowing they can claim it didn't arrive.

Yeah - I think it discourages "professional claimants" - it's hard to argue with the Royal Mail when they have a signature, date, time, and address of delivery!

But was it delicious, or is home cooking still the best?

Yes it was. So good I almost lost control.

I thought of a completely different pun for "insert", but I decided not to post it because this is the Lounge!

Something about Ends, Backspaces, and driving things Home. Yeah, I had the same thought, but then I looked the Page Up on the Lounge requirements, and Paused.
