I sold something on ebay awhile back, and had shipped the item. The item was expensive retail, well over $225...Aye! I sold it for $50 just to get rid of it. It was in very good condition. Well, she opened a paypal dispute yesterday...I was livid! I thought how could someone lie this way? what is wrong with people? society? Im usually always trying to stay positive about people. I dont like negative thoughts and try to sway from it. Anyways, I couldnt find the receipt with the delivery confirmation...all NIGHT I was looking and turned my place upside down looking..I figured great Im scr-wed and this lady gets to keep my pretty purse. Well I woke up with anger in my heart, I turned on my computer to an email saying she closed the dispute. She put my faith back on humanity. Not everyone lies and tries to hurt others."despite everything i really believe people are good at heart"- anne frank IP: Logged |

Just accept that there are people that don't want to learn, don't want to grow, don't want to get a good hart.IP: Logged |
