To divorce her..........or to eviscerate her......?

[Benicio Del Toffo]

I won a copy of London Jazz Four 'Take A New Look At The Beatles' on eBay at the weekend for a price I was more than happy with. Been looking forward to getting it all week and then I get this today:

"Hi Ben,
i'm afraid i have had to issue a refund for the London Jazz 4 album you recently bought from me. The batch of records that i had sold over the weekend were taken wrongly, by my wife, to a local charity shop on Tuesday!! I've managed to rescue some, but not all!!! Sadly this one has found its way into someone elses hands. I'm really sorry Ben. I've given you a full refund - see your paypal.
Many thanks and apologies. Billy"


There couldn't be too many judges in the land who would convict you for disembowelling the daft bint for that. Them lot with ovaries just don't get it, do they?


Ho hum. So, I've not lost out per se, but I'm rather disappointed and the waiting game begins again. Chalk it up to the ever growing list of eBay-related mishaps.

I've got some flexi booked tomorrow and had been reading through old CSCs (I'd recommend it, they're still very entertaining) which inspired me to have a bash at my own mini CSC tomorrow. I'd like to think that I'm now owed a decent break tomorrow. Pfffft!!

Ouch, I feel your pain mate....Good luck in the charities tomorrow.

Speaking as a female with a collection of about 3000 albums gathered over 20 years of collecting I do understand your frustration over losing a record this way but imho uttering serious threats towards women (let alone over lost records) and wishing bodily harm is no way to vent your frustration in a public forum.
Lighten up a bit, it's only a record pal.
Also, did it cross your mind perhaps that the seller is bullsh!ting you, changed him mind and made up a silly excuse to avoid selling you the record?

THIS!!!!!!!!!

Had you clocked this earlier, you could've saved yourself all that female murder fantasy angst as well.

That was my take on it too - story sounds pretty unlikely somehow.

Bad luck Ben. Sounds like a bit of backpedalling by the seller. I've had it before where I've won items for an absolute steal, and they mysteriously don't turn up and I get the slightly deflating refund. The (obviously,so why point it out) Basil Fawlty style diatribe seems to have ruffled a few feathers. I showed it to Mrs Treeboy who got it in that context straight away. She has one box of 45s from her teens incidentally if we are comparing who has the largest c********n.
You can borrow my well used shit (oops!) storm umbrella if you like.

Maybe they're the sensible ones?

The older I get, the more that becomes apparent.

Yeah, that's a new one, "wife donated it to charity". What's wrong with "the dog chewed on it"?

Only yesterday I was thinking "I wonder how Tom is, haven't seen him for ages?"

And now I know - he's superb! Good man.
