Suspicious buyer - Should I cancel their order?
A while ago I sold an item which the buyer claimed it hadn't arrived. I replied in good time and sent the buyer several messages, which they were very slow to respond to. Their responses made me somewhat suspicious that this wasn't a genuine claim. A...

And which genius decided to delete the picking list option from ebay
Once again here we go, the office boys in ebay have decided to take a perfectly good system, and get rid of it. There is NO picking list option, which means if I have 5 orders separately from the same buyer, I have to manually find them from the list...
Is it time for me to pull from Ebay
