eBay Adventure – No Happy Returns

                I just received a return from a lady who said that her feet were too big to fit into my shoes. My store said no returns. Also the customer never said that my merchandise was defective. I consulted with eBay and the company said that this customer was not covered under buyer protection. That saved me $100. I admitted that after around 2 months on eBay, I never received a return. What I did not know was that when a customer requested a return, it automatically went to PayPal. I checked my account and saw that negative number. The minute that I denied the return, my profile returned back to green. That was crazy but the return taught me something new about selling on eBay.

Don't Make the Same Mistakes, Make New Ones

            I’ve just returned from meeting an author that I'm helping at Busboys & Poets.  I am motivated more than ever to write my book and contribute to hers.  I know that I can write a book.  I’m think about writing a middle to upper management book because I’m a GS-14.  I can tell you how to sidestep all of the mess!  My motto has always been: don’t make the same mistakes, make new ones!
