  • Anxiety Provoked!

    Somebody wants to buy something of mine on Ebay.   They live on the upper west side.  If I can cut they shipping they will pay a bit more.  I want to sell these things, they have been collecting up dust and have been for sale for some time.  The person said they lived in a doorman building.  This is code for I can just drop them off.   It would cost me some transport to go drop them off, exactly 4 dollars,  leaving one dollar off the price they are willing to give me to skip the shipping. 

    I would rather this person pick them up here, outside on the street,  but the problem is I can't meet a stranger like that,  sell something and have the person come pick them up here, the NY World's Fair Glasses, but I'm too anxious about those types of situations.

    It takes some building up to do something like this,  a human interaction, and I just don't have it in me today... I have a Dr.s appointment at 4:45.   I just got out of bed around the time of the last past.

     I'm not afraid of the person, don't ask me why it is anxiety provoking.  I cannot meet a stranger.  What to do what to do.  I'll deal with it later.  I'll figure it out somehow,  face the small surge of panic juice.....

    I have met strangers before, don't get me wrong.

     I did it once before and managed to do it,  but it is highly anxiety provoking,   I think being sick,  have a phlegmy chest and cough, might make the anxiety worse.
    I'll ignore it today.


    This is all over $15 bucks by the way.   I must be sick.

    I just solved my own problem.  I'm mailing them,  I'm giving up $5 bucks profit.

    I deal with nickles and dimes, don't ask me why,  anybody else would just throw them out or give them away.  I will get $10 for them.

  • Five bucks is a small price to pay for your peace of mind. Simple.

  • $10 is good, especially knowing you didn't toss them away and you have your peace of mind. Oh snap, Queenie beat me to that.

  • TAKE THE MONEY!! LOL!

  • Oh I suffer the same problem from time to time, especially when I AM ill. I'm glad you cut your losses and remedied the situation unscathed. A small price to pay for PEACE.

    Hope that POPE leaves soon...I have to admit, I sure would like to wear that POPE HAT for a few ticks!

    BE WELL.
