I recently bought something on ebay. I know you’re curious so I’ll tell you what it was.
It was a set of Laura Ingalls Wilder "Little House on the Prairie books". I am so much into my second childhood it’s unreal. I wanted to read those books again. I am on the fourth one and thoroughly enjoying the books. Here is another small example of my second childhood action. When I received the books I entered a positive feedback on the lady’s Ebay site. I waited a week or so and didn’t get a feedback from her so I wrote this to my seller. Word for word this is what I said, "Do you not leave feed back for your buyers?" She responded immediately, "You didn’t need to get so nasty about it, I’ve had a death in my family and I am the only child so all the burden has been on me and ebay has not been on the top of my priorities". I didn’t want to start World War Three so I dropped it at that point. I see she left me a positive feedback. She said I was a great ebayer. I didn’t ask her to lie about it, she knows I am a nasty person and not a great ebayer at all. Not much to write about around here. Till next time.
Glad you like the books. I need to find something good to read again for that long plane ride.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like your books.. I have had that kind of issue once on ebay too..
ReplyDeleteBut oh well. .what do you do..
people can be rude..
have a great weekend...
Clothes rack? Perhaps after September. Right now it is just a huge thing that I trip over. I'll have you know I did a whopping two miles so far. Suddenly twenty a day seems abit far...
ReplyDeleteG2 (who also loves Laura Ingalls Wilder) You go girl! ;-)
Does enjoying Laura Ingalls Wilder mean I've entered my second childhood? Oh mercy! I'm doomed to die young then! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy you're enjoying your books! Have a great weekend!
Many hugs............

My 33 year old daughter re-reads the whole Laura Ingalls Wilder series at least once a year. It is a fantastic series. I recently went back and read all the Anne of Green Gables books again, I love them :)
ReplyDeleteG2's clothes rack was free, lol. I've kinda been wanting a treadmill myself, but I look around and just don't think I have room for another clothes rack :)

Very unfortunate remarks from the lady. Do death and grief give us the perfect excuse to be nasty? Uh-oh. Maybe it is she who's having a second childhood episode. ",)
ReplyDeleteYou could have no way of knowing what her life situation was and it did not give her a right to be nasty. She could have just said she was busy and would get to it as soon as she could.
ReplyDeleteI love love love Laura!
Happy Pink Saturday

Thanks for the comments. As to the rude lady, I crossed her off my list of people to buy from. I am so happy to hear that so many people share my love of the Laura books.
ReplyDeleteHaving just helped a friend empty her deceased brother's apartment I get the stress of a death, but the seller should have simply put off responding to eBay email at this time.
ReplyDeleteI boughgt Little House in the Ozarks at Half Price Books. Maybe we could all start a book circle for second childhoods.
