Vacation A Calling

Finally the day to go back to Singapore is arriving soon.

I didn't realise that it's this Friday, 23 May - just 2 days away. At the back of my mind I know it's soon but NOT that soon. Seems like I still have lots to do. Clothes, bags, shoes and etc to buy.. never mind that I have to pack for the boys as well. Nevermind that actually, I can do it in a jiffy. When one goes to Singapore, all they need is passport and lotsa cash or many workable credit cards - or just one titantium card. You can buy practically everything you need there... yes.. including Aspirin (because I had a late night and a late morning).

Now the other thingy on my mind is, do I close my ebay store temporary or just keep it running. I think many buyers will not look at the 'mail after which date' notification. They pay for their items and expects them to be in the mail box the next morning. Talking about patience.. and threats ! yes threats of non-receipt or dispute claims to Ebay and Paypal.

Talking about Paypal, besides collecting money on your behalf and taking a percentage out of it and touting that they protect buyers and sellers alike, what do they actually do? They tout, yes! They don't protect - if they do, they charge you a certain $$ for their work. Upsetting? YES! Fortunately I have not many case to deal with but just one is enough. I have a tracking no. of an item I mailed out to France which never arrived. Paypal told the buyer to sort it out among yourself and get the seller to refund. Hellow... I spent 18 euros on postage and don't I have a say? I'm suppose to bite the bullet and refund meekly?! 18 euros could feed a family for a whole day - not just slices of bread mind you. I'm talking about fish, meat, rice, vegetables, soup! Well... not without a fight I tell you.

Ok let me calm down now..... so tonight, after my facial, I'm off to the mall and hopefully I could get my hands & feet on a couple of pretty stuff.... I'll worry about the bills later...
