Slightly depressed.... (CBPOB)

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Damn them bastards!

Will be made up for another time, no doubt, don't worry 8)

I'm rather P-d off at some arse who bought a camera from me on eBay and claims it's dented and therefore will not function but doesn't seem to feel like sending me photos of the camera over so I can actually see if it's badly damaged. As a result my PayPal balance is a couple hundred euros in the red. Damn him!

Anyone got any experience with Paypal's claims handling from a seller's point of view? I didn't escalate it, he did :urff:

Once they have made a decision either way then that is the decision they stick with. If your money has been reunded to the buyer then thfat's that, although you can ask for the camera to be returned. They're a bunch of bastards!

As with many things in life, it's a question of degree.
At one end of the scale you have Vince Cable and at the other Silvio Berlusconi.

Two very different types of politician in my opinion.

It's also worth keeping in mind when considering the expenses scandal that even the worst of these jokers only registers about 0.1 on the Nixon scale.

While politicians have definitely grown more bland during the last fifty years we should be thankful that Nick Griffin possesses none of Hitler's charisma or oratory skill.

Not being able to speak or understand German I have no idea what his oratory skills were like. I always assumed, maybe wrongly, that Germans were just gullible and easily led.

You don't need to be able to speak German when watching footage from a Nuremberg Rally to see Hitler's ability to both hold and whip an audience into a frenzy. Obviously, a certain amount of pomp and ceremony were employed, and people, not just in Germany, were looking for scapegoats on which to blame the depression upon.

and by the law of averages, some of them were stupid, gullible, easily led, bullies and/or opportunists. or all of the above.
