Even though yesterday was the big shopping day, I'll bet most of the malls

Actually, I don't think that's correct. It's been a long time since I read

sellers). That way, everyone who sells on eBay is an "i

You are being very forgiving and kind and extending the benefit of the
doubt. That's a good trait and something I try to do myself whenever I can

careless about the auction descriptions -- although I checked out at least

This is why myself and many others have been saying that the eBay feedback

unfair retaliation being left on whistle-blowers, it's the weight of sheer
