I thought that might happen... Gutted I missed all the action! I feel bad for the seller being messed about though.

Perhaps some people should get their facts straight before they open their mouth!
I Could of paid for it and would not get my mum and dad to pay for it, I earn my own money, I was just so overwhelmed at the finishing price but it has all blown over now so can we just drop it!

"I think some people should get their facts straight before opening their mouth! "
And I think that YOU Alex should be aware that nowhere was your name mentioned in this thread. YOU are the one making it worse by chipping in. YOU are an adult, YOU are responsible for your actions, and YOU have to accept that people WILL talk about others, fact of life.
Look at the first thread. Someone came on asking where the messages went. So someone told them. That is all. You keep pointing out that you are independent of your parents and that you are an adult, yet the way you are behaving is a complete contradiction.
You made a mistake and you want it to drop. Fine. Keep a low profile and it will. Keep butting in and you will only fan the flames.

Benny, it was clear that I was the one being referred to and you know that. I was the one that pulled out, remember? I don't know how you could forget, there has been enough talk about it, despite it happening constantly with buyers on eBay all the time.
I am mature to a point, but as you persistently point out I am still young, but I am not impeccable as most of us are not, I just don't see why the fuss has to be continued, I apologised profusely to the seller and they forgave me, I think we should let it be.

You said all that already. Do you know what fanning the flames actually means?

fan the flames (of something)
Fig. to make something more intense; to make a situation worse. The riot fanned the flames of racial hatred even more. The hostility in the school is bad enough without anyone fanning the flames.

Why bid more than you can afford / want to pay in the first place?!?

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">Does anyone remember when there were lots of NIB Compact vacuums on eBay? Several folks here bought them; I would have bought at least one before they were gone. By the time I found out about those new in box Compacts, most were already sold

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;"> </span>
<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">Maybe someday I may get a new Compact

Hang fire...
Without wishing to reignite anything, I listed on eBay as requested, sent out the vacuums, cancelled several bids where buyers got overexcited and sent out the goods and have had really really good feedback. Check my discontinuedbutdiscounted feedback on eBay.
I was doing my job and didn't get involved in any fighting/arguing.
If anyone wishes to purchase any cleaners they are welcome to contact me with their requirements / offers.

Woah, Lucy, I'm not saying anything here about your actions...I'm questioning the need for this whole thread from the start. Sounds like Glenste here really is just wanting the gossip and it risks raking all last week's drama back up again.
Lucy, we really appreciate the efforts that you've gone to with these cleaners, so thank you very much indeed for keeping us all in the loop with them. You've had to put up with a lot of rubbish over this, most of which was unnecessary. I can only apologise on behalf of the UK members of the forum for the behavior and attitude of certain people during this whole debacle.
Maybe when you have your next lot of vacuums to sell, it might be a good idea to start a new thread and draw a line under all this drama.
