More eBay experiences shared......

We had our classic "I ordered stainless and this is grey" email again today but this classic just landed.......

"Have received induction hob but when connected to mains it will not warm up.



Buttons give readings up to 9 but not heating is occurring.



The item was delivered when we were out – it was left in porch!!!



Your observations please."

I stopped short of offering to sell a new set of pans.

I'd offer to sell them new pans. Got to be a few extra quid in it!

There's no point making stuff idiotproof, god will always create a better idiot.

Don't ring him up when he's ironing......

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

I advertised an Alfa on behalf of a friend, and I showed his contact details inthe advert.

Never-the-less I had a couple of enquiries, both asking was the car left-hand-drive? This despite the advert clearly showing that it was right hand drive. Maybe they were just hoping that I would change my mind, and say it wasindeed LHD
