Leasha ~ I just had an almost exact same situation. Ebay deregistered a seller that I had bought some of my wedding jewellery from before I had even got the item! I payed via paypal, so if you go to paypal you can lodge a dispute. Paypal covers you for up to $20000 so you should be fine if you paid via that way.
I did get my item though, the day AFTER I lodged the claim! - and i withdraw the dispute.
Hope that helps!
Yay for Shel being 'Domesticated'! Congrats! Can;t wait to see the pic!

Squidipa ~ Good luck today hunny with weigh in. Even if it isn't as big as Josiah's last weight gain, anything in the upwards direction is a plus! I'll be thinking of you!

MM ~ Funny, I seem to get distracted at 'particular' times during the day. Like washing up time, or vacuuming time, or folding clothes time...... LMAO

Pixie ~ Was doing the math in my head about all those age gaps but guess what? Got distracted! ROFLMAO tee hee
