I have a question about combined shipping on ebay. I have a lady that bought 2 things from me today, and I sent her the combined invoice for the 2 items. It takes a dollar off each item purchased after the 1st item. Okay, she says I am doubling the cost. All it did was take the first item's shipping cost, then on the second item won's shipping cost, subtracted a dollar from it. (this is all in one invoice, not 2 separate ones)She says the people who use combined shipping ship things together on the first shipping fee alone. If I just shipped on the first fee alone, I wouldn't have enough to mail off the package. I am so confused. I thought I was doing it right all along, no one else has ever questioned it or said it wasn't right. I have even offered to send her the difference if it happened to be overcharged. Can someone please help?

I mean specifically---not that tired old chestnut "I studied and worked hard." Ditch diggers studied (and ended up digging ditches), and they work hard, but that alone doesn't make you rich. So, come on, serious answers only, not platitudes!

I've tried to purchase contact lenses online, from Clearly Contacts.ca.

The website was keep showing 'can't find products' when i clicked - so I phoned them.
This lady said the websites go wrong sometimes so she'll place the order instead for me.
And I have received the invoice e-mailed, rechecked the order, and made payments.

Today, I have received two packages.
One, what I have ordered and paid,
the otherone, some lenses with an invoice for those I have no idea.

I phoned them, explained what I've got.
They said it was ordered online and I have to pay for them.

I told them i have not received any notice or e-mail about this purchase, the lady on the phone that day did not tell me anything about the purchase,they didn't give any tracking # for this order.
I am not a good arguer. And I think they are using this.
Even I've explained everything, they say I'll still have to pay for shipping and handling if I return it.
What should I do?
I've done nothing wrong.

I'm working part time, but want a full time position. There is a full time position open during hours that I can work consistently, on time and do the job. My employer keeps hiring others, (who have other jobs as well), but tells me that it is because of the responsibilities of my other job.

Do I have a discrimination case?

This is my first time selling something on ebay
im selling a jersey and im confused about the shipping
is it the higher i set my shipping, the more money that will go in my pocket once someone buys my item
or is it wutever i set the shipping to, my paypal is also charged for shipping and the buyer pays for shipping too, so it evens out?
if the 2nd one's true, then will my paypal account be charged for shipping when i directly finish putting the item up for sale? or will my account be charged when my item is bought??

im soo confused :(

I just turned 18 years old this week and I am thinking about moving out at the beginning of next year. I already have a job and I am putting money in my savings account. I get paid SS benefits (around $500 a month) until next September. But I am saving for the first $1000 for a car and I am also saving up another thousand so that I can pay 6 months of car insurance without having to worry about it. I plan on living with a roommate. All I need is a room. I'm not much of a phone person so I'm not sure if I'll even need one if not already provided. I will be starting community college in Spring as well. Tips? I'm sick of living with my mother. She makes me depress and I'm happier when I'm not living with her.

All i can get now are the 19.5-23.9% rate and $6-$10 a month cards. Some day(6-12 months) I will get the low interest rates and no annual fee cards so what will i do with the others? They will have 6 months or more credit history on them? I don't want to keep on paying the annual fees? If i get rid of them my score will go down! I called one of the card company and she said the annual fee will always be on the card as long as you have it. If i keep them too long too much money going out...Please give me some advise you experts I have 2 cards 3 months now.

So I had an interview with a company for a position I desire. The next day after the interview, I called the HR lady becuase I thought I left my wallet there. She offered me the job and said I can start on the 22nd of the month. However, she said she needs to run the backround check and call my referal.

My backround is clean (Except a misdemeanor C) and the referals will only speak good about me. Yesterday I called her again to see how it went, she said that she is still working on getting one more referal and waiting on the backround check. She said that by today she will give me a call.

I did not recieve the call and didn't want to call her and bother her, because yesterday I called her twice. I am affraid that I will not get the job...Is this normal?
