POSTAGE…  TWO WEEKS… PLEASE READ THIS

Please note…  This is from WA by STANDARD post.  It will probably go by ROAD.  Road-post is 5,000km & averages 8 to 9 business days (despite what Ebay & Australia Post say). 

So, for non-delivery,  please DO NOT email me until 2 WEEKS have passed  (ie 10 business days).  After 2 weeks I can help, not before as I cannot make it go faster.   Patience please  !!!!     Thank-you   Martin

## SORRY… PAYPAL ONLY

NO BANK TRANSFERS....  DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE PAYPAL !!!    WHY?

Paypal customer…    

1. Usually instant. (money straight in and auto-advises me)

2. I send goods. 

3. All over.

Bank-Transfer customer rigmarole.

1. I wait to see if Paypal

2. Nothing happens,  so I send general invoice as not sure of intentions.

3. Usually nothing still happens, so I write and ask intentions.

4.  I receive cryptic semi-illiterate reply like “a/c details?”

5. Before I send my a/c details, I need to check if they’re Nigerian, so I send  

an Aussie test-greeting ** and their reply will tell me if they’re OK.

6. No reply again.

7. After 2 more days I ask for a reply.

8.They reply finally.

9. I send account details.

10. I watch my account every day, (which is a pain as you have to logon and go through all the usual bank security stuff… unlike Paypal that auto-loads.

11. After no deposit for 4 days, I write yet again asking what's happening. 

12.A reply of sorts arrives " O wot buddy i bin so bizzy i 4got i wil send 4shore 2moro"  (a high percentage of transfer-customers communicate in this odd way...  little wonder our literacy is amongst the lowest of the Western World.)

Here’s an example of some gibberish I got recently which has no meaning  “ yo buddy yeah igot u no more 4 paypal crap ezee wen u say hey 2moro it wil be 4sure 2 U K? “    I’m unsure whether to categorise it under  Orwell’s 1984 or Kornbluth’s “Marching Morons”    (google MM if you don’t know it). 

13. Anyway, finally an amount arrives (if I'm lucky).   I go through and balance it to an auction now nearly two weeks old.

14. I send it.

15. Because they didn’t read my 2 week time information, they send yet another illiterate email in 2 days asking why their package hasn’t arrived…

16. Men in white coats arrive to cart me off to loony-bin… a sad end…

SUMMARY The time in this is phenomenal... and utterly wasteful... and I'm simply not going to do it.   For these low value items, I must get the time down.   When you are manipulating many items and re-listing the same item sometimes every few days, these long delays become very confusing.   What I can't understand  is that Paypal is paid for by the seller not the buyer, so it’s so easy for the buyer.  They will even do it if you have no credit card.  There really are no excuses for a buyer and it seems to be a certain type of person that can’t be bothered… this personality trait of course carries over to every other aspect of their method of doing courteous business.   

** why the “Aussie email”???   There are thousands of crooks out there trying to break into accounts and get stuff for nothing..  This is why I engage “bank-transfer people” in conversation first, to ensure their English is not Victorian (all Nigerians speak in a weird 19^th century Charles Dickens' English… they’re easy to pick)
