I don't know Eddie - they have made a few security changes lately which seem to benefit private sellers. Saying you can only have 100 x 99p listings in a month stops the business low-price posters swamping the lists!
Sorry butch, the space station will be back soon - and some of us find the eBay dosh extremely useful!
some of the things on ebay concern me. Like all the 99p "diamonds" from China. There seems to be no check on descriptions a lot of the time. I wrote to ebay about it but they ignored me.
I sent for a tiara from china just for the hell of it to see what the quality was like when my daughter was planning her wedding
the tiara arrived by freepost and it was beautiful , i was amazed , if i remember right it cost me about £2
