You found another new use for the iPad I see?

So there is a snarky joke in there about taking the tablets but spending your birthday fishing and relaxing negates any insanity issues.
Glad is was enjoyable.

Ok, so I have changed my password - not a major problem.
But...I use FleaBay on my PC and my tablet - and I changed my password on my PC.
So what do you suppose happens when I run the FleaBay app on my tablet? Yes, that's right - it works fine (presumably) with my old password, since I haven't told it the new one, and haven't used the FleaBay app since the tablet was last power cycled. Not a huge problem - I just have to sign out and back in with the new password, but shouldn't it at least check my password when I try to use it?
OK, I'll suggest it to them...
...have you ever tried to find how to report a bug to FleaBay? Look like you have to call them (nope, not gonna) or use their live support (with huge delays because everybody is trying to change the password) and no way to email a bug report...

Yeah, sometimes it's OK.
For example I've sold stuff on there for more than it's worth...
A couple of £10 off vouchers I couldn't use because it would cost me more to get to the shop than I'd save. Put them up for £0.99 starter and sold them for about £15 each...

Nope!
Some people bid above face value for money off vouchers... And the really worrying bit is there were at least two of them bidding...

Lets hope they don't get together!
I recall a story where a cryo was awakened to a city where the cars travel at 30kph and make wooshing noises to convince the driver he was going fast. The moral, what happens in the future if you allow all the idiots to breed, a truly Darwinian story.

This?[^]
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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?

The mind boggles sometimes.
My daughter is currently flogging some no longer wanted clothes on our version of eBay (TradeMe) and two morons are currently in a bidding war over a pair of jeans which has now passed the original retail price....

No, that would have been even sillier - if I'd won, I would have had to pay FleaBay and PayPal for the privilege!

I wouldn't give you a red cent for it... But there is a good chance of serious money!
Mind you, you could probably post it up on QA and get a couple of bids...

People buy the damnest stuff. I've got quite a bit off Fleabay and have had pretty good luck.

That's a scam at work there, the buyer claims they never arrived and Paypal refund. You have to be very careful selling on ebay these days, always assume you will be ripped-off and when you're not its a bonus.

Always send with a signature required - and you have proof of dispatch and proof of delivery. And make it clear that the postage will include this. Your exposure is vastly reduced and you shouldn't lose money.

Doesn't make any difference if you have a postman like ours, just shoves everything through the letterbox or rings the bell and leaves it on the doorstep - doesn't wait for a signature! Can be quite useful at times!!
Still working on it........................
