I can look for an item on ebay if I put the name of what I'm looking for, like you do. Then, while I'm looking at said item and I decide to look at what else this seller has, I click on 'See other items', but nothing happens. It's been like this a fe...

Do your eBay sales "develop" into anything?

Strange question, but I find a number of my clients like to correspond after the event. Once they've bought an item which they're happy with - normally a puzzle in my case, they're quite happy to send you back a snippet about themselves like: "I enjo...
