So far some still check out with ebay but no more holds. </p><p>I also think if you keep in contact and let them know this is causing problems for you since you put the item in the mail and have no $$ to show for it.. it presents a problem if the buyer is dishonest and the seller is punished unfairly for 3 weeks. </p><p>Moral of the story... use some form of tracking and charge more for shipping to cover that cost.... I keep a fairly high shipping price anyway because the cost is more than just postage... such as bubble mailers tape etc.... it all ads up when your selling little $$ items. </p><p>Hope that helps </p><p>Liane[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
