    That`s not mad, that`s proppa british character, big clap (from the big girl down the lane...)

    Lovely Iron Maiden tat, :) Liking that... and nice scar on your left arm, even nicer trhan some of mine, I can`t join Ebay ( :( ) but like the person who offered, will offer my own services, and turn up with a branding iron and brand some text if you want THX...

    You can`t say fairer than that :) *_+

    strewth i thought it would have done better than ?21 , is the bidder going through with it THX ?
  • thx1138thx1138

    did not sell highest bid was ?21, reserve not met.

    but, I have had an extra 400 hits on my about me page, an e-mail from a journalist who wanted to interview me about my experincing selling on eBay, 2 extra phone calls from people asking me to sell things for them as a trading assistant - who saw my ad through the auction, and my turnover on eBay is now already over $2,000 a month. People have been linking my auction all over the place, and I think the ?20 I paid in fees was worth it, just for the publicity my ebay shop got.


    I still think that it was a good idea, becuase of the type and style of tattoo I was going for. Unless you are heavily tattooed, like I am, it would be hard for some of you to see it from my point of view.

    It was a disappointing result auciton wise, publicity wise, it done me very well. The biggest flaw, being the approved bidders list, I think it deterred people. However, if I hadn't done that, I am fairly sure it would have been wrecked by people on purpose - and that could have got messy, if I had got stung with high fvf fees, and had to chase eBay up to get them returned. I was slightly suprised that no more bids came in at the last 5 minutes, but that's life.

    As for the tattoo in question, I'll probably still get it done anyway, a variation of what I had in mind. A barcode on the inside of my left arm, with a number, and not quite sure what the writing across the top would be.

    not one of my best auctions, but not a total disaster considering the fringe benefits it brought.

    Why not have the barcode put on the back of your neck?

    Amy's thinking of having a tattoo put on her t***!

    And you lose a turn... I'll give a clue - it's another work for a popular item on a female body, sizes vary. With Amy, these particular items are big...

    If my girlfriend got a tattoo done, I'd be devastated. They're a complete turn off for me. Fortunately, she doesn't like them either :).

    Wrong again...

    Amy's feet are only a size 7 compared to my size 11 feet.

    If no-one can guess, it's her breasts she's thinking of getting tattooed..

    What don't u believe? The foot size or teh tattoo? If the latter, she's not got it yet!

    Feet - it all has to do with size - I'm 6'3" and she is 5'5"
