Steve O, I am not worthy!!!!

You rock along with my banner.  Thank you and sleep tight. 



Big hugs for you!!!!!!!!!!

This is a how to question?

Does anyone know how to reformat a blog banner so it show up?  I have been told that my banner shows up on internet explorer but my MAC runs thru Safari or Firefox and my banner has completely vanished on these browsers.  Does nayone know why and can anyone here help?

It's over. I am so sad......

.................................................................................................................................................

No more listing sale.  I saved a ton this month.  Even though I only had 1 or 2 items that were "free" I still saved a ton on my other listings.  Hopefully I will sell everything first time around.  Not expectin' it o' course.  Just kidding.  Nighty night everyone!

Wowwers! That is all I can say!

What did they put in the Ebay proverbial water cooler!!  My sales have gone thru the roof.  I already packed 6 items today for mailing tomorrow, and I just had 2 bin's that bought and already paid.  AND, I have 13 items bid on and some have more than 1 bid.  This is reminiscent of times a long time ago in a galaxy far far away.  Ok, not that long ago, but it feels like centuries since I had a great weekend of sales.  This is awesome!  Hope it has been as good for you!

OMG! I can not stop laughing!

This is absolutely hilarious.  Please just paste this link into your browser.  I don't know how to put in a live link.

Hilarious!  I promise!

Wow, sales have been brisk!

Funny way to start your Saturday

I posted this yesterday but a lot of peeps didn't get to see it.  It is worth repeating so here it goes........

A father asked his 10-year old son if he knew about the birds and the bees.

'I don't want to know,' the child said, bursting into tears. 'Promise me you won't tell me.'

Confused, the father asked what was wrong.

The boy sobbed, 'When I was six, I got the 'There's no Easter Bunny' speech.

At seven, I got the 'There's no Tooth Fairy' speech.

When I was eight, you hit me with the 'There's no Santa' speech.


If you're going to tell me that grown-ups don't really get laid, I'll have nothing left to live for.'

Well, here it goes....

I am off to a brave new world of a brick and mortar store.  I agreed to buy into a local jewelry store and I am heading in that direction shortly.  I am bringing about 20 of my handbags to put in the store and sell there as well as keep them listed on ebay.  I am going to change my store name and ebay id soon.  It will be weird.  I have gymmomj since 1999.  But i want to have something that will reflect my jewelry inventory.  I will be asking you guys for lots of help and will run a contest shortly on a new store name.  I will award the winning name with some of my coolest Bebe stuff.  Start thinking and send good thoughts in my direction too while you are at it.  Cya later.

The realities of manhood....

HEY READ THIS.  IT IS REALLY FUNNY!!!............

Would you cancel this buyers bid?

I have a buyer who has bid on a pair of boots.  She has one fdbk and it is red.  She left the seller a neg becasue she said their shipping was too high.  Now we all know she knew how much the shipping charges were before she placed her bid.  I also ask all who have zero fdbk, or neg fdbks to email me before bidding.  She has not so I sent this email to her. 

Hello and thank you for bidding on my Bebe boots.  I see you have only one feedback and it is a neg.  You gave the seller a neg for having a handling fee.  By bidding on an item, you are agreeing to all auction specifics including whatever the shipping fees are.  My shipping fees are clearly described in every auction I have listed and also include a handling fee.  Selling on ebay is expensive and so are shipping supplies and other things associated with running a business.  If this is a problem for you and you feel you will not be able to leave a positive feedback for me for these gorgeous boots, I will be happy to cancel your bid immediately.  Also since you are a new buyer with only a neg fdbk, I will need assurance from you that you will complete this auction if you are the winning bidder.  That is also clearly stated in my description. Thanks for your immediate response.  Jodi D.

Would you cancel her if she doesn't reply?

For the person who wants to know

about leaving feedback and getting with the program.  If you want comments, YOU need to get with the program and ALLOW them.  Go into your preferences and click to have your comments allowed.  Also, not all fdbk left is good anyway.  I have a buyer right now who is bidding, and they have only 1 fdbk and it is a red one.  They left their seller a neg because they felt the shipping was too high.  That PISSES me off so i sent her an email and explained that I too, charge a handling fee and if that is a problem to email me immediately and I will be happy to cancel their bids.  By bidding on an item, you are AGREEING with all auction requirements including the shipping fee.  Don't like it, DON'T FRICKEN BID!!! Thank you.

I am such a good girl!

I got off my fat bee-hind and went to the gym.  Did 30 minutes of cardio and then about 15 minutes of abs and then a few minutes of arms.  Yay for me.  I told my husband that I went to the gym when he walked in tonight and he said good for you hon, now you are done for the year.  Funny guy.

Is there a listing sale happening?

Just read a post that eluded to a coming listing sale.  I NEVER get emails from Ebay anymore about these happenings.  

Ebaborique are u here?

Or anyone who can help?  My Jodi's Rockin' Blog banner disappeared into cyberspace and all I am left with are sparkles.  I can't fix it, that's for sure.  I don't do HTML.  And singing to it just doesn't seem to help, lol.

Good Sunday morning Blogland

What does your day ahead look like?  It is a gorgeous cool morning (finally) here in AZ.  I have band rehearsal from 11 to 3.  Should be fun.  Went to a party last night at my future partner's house.  Looks like the partnership in the brick and mortar jewelry biz is going to be a go.  So Fashion Finders will have to have a new name when that goes through.  I am going to ask all of you for help when that comes about.  So what does your day look like?

Damn scammers trying but not succeeding

on ripping me off.  I had someone from Sweden use a BIN on two, not one, but two sweaters.  She emailed me that she transferred the funds and asked when I would be shipping her sweaters.  I checked my paypal account because the ebay auctions were not showing as paid and that can happen occassionally as a software glitch.  No payment anywhere so I emailed her and told her that.  She emails me back 2 days later and said she is having trouble with her paypal account but she could wire the money directly into my bank account if I email her the info.  I replied, I do not send my bank info to anyone but I would be happy to give you a Western Union office that is close to me so you may wire me the funds that way.  I will give you three guesses on her reply and the first two don't count.  Damn scammers.  I feel sorry for the not so bright peeps out that would have sent this yahoo their bank numbers.  Oh well.  Unpaid dispute time tomorrow.

Hey UASHU...

Don't put your spam CRAP on other people's posts. 

Whoa has anyone else here seen Chris Crocker?

That boy is seriously demented or one of the finest actors of our time.

Got this email from "ebay" this morning

and I laughed my ass off. Who would fall for this?  I guess there are some that do or this would be id thief wouldn't send this out.  Check it out!
