Opting In - Business Policies

While I'm sure eBay has its reasons, my eBay account did not have opting into business policies until recently. Well, ummmm, today. 

Business policies allow you to set return, paypal and shipping preferences so you don't have to keep typing them into every listing. All seller accounts were supposed to be offering an opt in the banner by 2012 but here we are 2014 and up until today I was still having to type in shipping etc.

Finally tonight I got the customer service person to send me an opt in invitation! Prior to that I was asked to have patience which was a year ago. Did I mention I do eBay with mostly one hand? Can you imagine how excited I am to not have to type in all of those same preferences every single time I list an item? 

Meanwhile I've let some eBay stress out by participating in my favorite Holiday...Oktoberfest! 


I'm not German but I love silly Polka. Our community got busy building these beer cup towers which were actually pretty amazing. 


My favorite polka dance besides the chicken dance is Alice. I find it amusing that old men playing polka ask young and old to say "Alice? Who the hell is Alice?" every time they say Alice. 

One more Oktoberfest weekend and then the Halloween festivals began. I love October. 

So much so I ombréd my hair in fall colors after watching a 12-year-olds you tube video. The Tweens these days get my thumbs up... 


And lastly, I bought this Chilly Willy ugly Xmas sweater on eBay today. I couldn't resist.


Over and out!

A Few Items That Sold This Week on Diva Monk

This New Charger Tee went for $16, and the buyers positive feedback was "lightening fast shipping." Go Bolts! The best part is the shirt was free, a friend donated it to Diva Monk!


These Bebe Sunglasses sold for $60 


Lane Bryant Sweater went for $32 in a week long bidding war.


This Style & Co sweater sold the first time I listed it for $23, which I felt like it would go fast since it's so cute. I bought it and the sweater above for $2 each at a second hand store that benefits hospice care. (I love that part and try and use them often since they run on volunteers.)


This Les Copains top sold for $25 I originally had it listed for $50. I was sure the European market would jump on it since it's high end but no, after a few months I lowered the price til it sold. It has a real chain woven in the neck line, totally Devine!
Lastly I wanted to share this dress set that went for $70, it was one of my favorite items in Diva Monk. I bought it from an African woman who was returning to Africa after getting her degree here in the States. What's cool is the fabric is actually telling a story of women in Africa educating themselves and taking leadership roles.  It sold to a woman in Detroit, I love how magic passes through the store.
