I am selling a load of stuff on eBay, since we are moving and all. Some of it is quite big stuff (like furniture) and/or is just too oddly shaped or heavy or bulky for me to be faffed with trying to wrap and lug to the post office, so I'm selling it for collection only. I've put absolutely all the information short of my actual address in the listing about from where it needs to be collected, and why. And still like 5 times a day I get:

"Where are you located?"

"Can you post this item?"

No. Fuck you, no. Learn to read, you fucking moron. Fuck you.

hehe I've had that in the past.

To keep things low cost i only post within the UK on ebay. My account is set up this way, and i put it in bold letters on my ads but you can bet money on at least three people will email me:

"How much to post to Greece/Azerbaijan/Timbucktoo?"

I have to admit I still request postage if I really want the item.

However I wouldn't ask you to post a bloody couch.

people = too lazy to read

believe me, I feel your pain. And not only with eBay but with my job. At my work you have to ring the doorbell so someone can go let you in (it's locked for security reasons, we have fancy stuff sometimes) and if I'm around I have to do it. There is a sign posted clearly on the door to ring the bell once for our department or twice for the other department.

So many times you just hear the door being jostled over and over. In those cases I let them sit there until they figure it out. Sometimes they end up knocking, in which case I'll go over then inform them about the bell.

Sometimes people ring once, so I know they read the sign. I go to open the door and they want THE OTHER DEPARTMENT. Bitch, I know you READ THE SIGN since you KNEW TO RING THE BELL. WTF. RING TWICE ASSHOLE.

One time they had a student worker in the other department and every fucking time the stupid cunt would ring once, despite me reminding her. I think she had it out for me. I'm glad her little stint is over because otherwise I would have choked that bitch.
