I love horses!

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

I have always loved animals. Especially horses. Unfortunately I was not raised in an environment that let me get close to them. I wish I had the skills and talents of the young lady in this video! (I also wish I had horses and lots of money, but if wishes were horses, then beggars would ride!) Anyway, this lady is spectacular!

Yuck! Makes me think twice about hotels, that is for sure!

I was thinking about buying some new glassware for our kitchen, and so I was searching the Internet for some new glasses. I found this instead! I know it is an old story, but it still freaked me out a lot!

Got the shipment

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

Well, I got a shipment from that ebay merchant but have filed a claim that was the first shipment that is long overdue and that the second shipment hasn’t arrived.  The merchant has promised to ship it out again, but I’ve put a claim through paypal to not pay it until the second shipment arrives.  I hope it works!  I don’t want a sleazy merchant to benefit from me!  On a good note, at least this time the garment fits!  I was really going to be annoyed if it was too small too!

I’ll fix their goat!

I have re-ordered the clothes from that same Ebay merchant that sent me the wrong items a few months ago and failed to make good on them.  The exact same items.  According to Ebay, the items were shipped.  When they arrive, you can just imagine what kind of feedback I’ll be leaving the merchant this time!

Paypal says it’s too late

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

My sister suggested that I put in a claim with PayPal to try to get the Ebay merchant to pony up with the merchandise, so I went to the PayPal website to lay out a claim.  I was quite annoyed when I realized that there is a 45 day limit to claims, and that the merchant that stiffed me had played me out over that 45 day limit!

So, with a little research I found that the purchase in question was actually charged onto my DiscoverCard, which gives me more time to dispute a charge!  So I called the DiscoverCard Customer Service today and explained the situation and they said that they will investigate and in the meantime will credit my account for the money.
