Someone just left me "neutral" feedback.

Again, they did not bother to contact me first. Yes, it was a new eBayer. I'm getting really pissed about this. I could easily have fixed it somehow, with a partial refund or something.

She was unhappy that things were broken. Even though the title included "SECONDS" and the description mentioned that every single item was damaged. Sad part? I always throw in a few things that are barely damaged, say, a little teeny chip or something. I always lose money on these lots, and to lose money and receive sad fb totally makes me crazy.

Hopefully my email to her about it won't piss her off.

*ginormous sigh of relief*

It only took countless photos, a new email account, new Paypal account, new eBay account, a new template, several hours checking out existing auctions, an hour of measurements, several hours with Photoshop, and several near-meltdowns.

And of course, there is always the impending feeling of doom. I doubt I'll make any money on this at all, especially after seeing the competition.

Recently, I mentioned [livejournal.com profile] earthenwood in my journal--she's a longtime RL friend, a ceramics artist, and the force behind a lot of fabulous jewelry. She also happens to be one of the nicest people on the Earth, and for me, it's an honor to call her friend.

Her partner in crime now has a LJ! [livejournal.com profile] lukacsart is a fantastic illustrator. He's done work for Magic: The Gathering and countless other cool things. He rocks, utterly. Check out his LJ if you're interested. He's pretty new here, so there aren't many entries, but you can see some of his beautiful fantasy artwork.

squee!!
