Selling on EBay is a great way to earn some extra income if you need a fairly sedentary job while awaiting or recovering from injury, illness or laser spinal surgery. 

I have sold on EBay periodically on and off for years and I am proud of my high 100% positive fee

I wrote to EBay's customer relations people for several days about an issue I was concerned about in a minor buying and selling account and they would not assist me.  I told them they would loose four EBay accounts over the issue if they did not provide me with fair justice and I provided them with all the evidence they needed to see I was in the right.  I received non reply emails from them as a result saying they would do nothing.


Last night I canceled 130 listings on EBay, a selling manager program and my EBay store and re set up my own private sales store as you will see, above.  This morning EBay contacts me to say to disregard all the other emails they sent and that they will look into the issue for me.   It is a bit late EBay...I have set my own store up.  I enjoy looking after my customers and will love to do so without the middle man.  

Feel very welcome to look at my Flower, Horse, Landscape and Portrait galleries accessed from the above link bar and know I will never send you non reply EMails if you have a concern.  :-)
Best regards, Kathy

Over the last 24 hours and continuing tonight, I am smartening up my Kathy Shell Art website and saw the art lessons I popped in there, last year.

As I know there are a few artists friends about I'll share one of these lessons a day and do some more when I'm back in the studio to add to these.

The creative life and environment of Kathy Shell

This painting of the Robe River is one of my favorites and it may be purchases as an art fridge magnet or art card from the artist Katy Shell.The original art work is 20" x 30" oil on stretched canvas, collect only from the artist's private collection. Inquiries welcome.  Gallery price $3,000.  This is a beautiful investment work.

Comments left here will be seen by the artist and replied to.

  I started the day by finishing reading Lorna Doone. Beautiful flowing old world language and description of a courtship. Trying to keep the blinkers on and not see chores that need doing so I can continue to write. Need to do a few essentials today though, seniors flu shots, tyre repair, and the important one, my local, Angus & Robertson bookstore in receivership clearance sale.  I usually buy my bargain books from Fishpond, see link below.

I have made up 13 groupings of my art fridge magnets, and placed them for sale on eBay,
