This was the thread I had in mind when I posted earlier in the other thread relating to her as a seller - hope it helps those trying to make a judgement about purchases.

Answering machines. For both numbers. Even during what she lists as normal business hours. That's okay, I sent enough emails, and hopefully the paypal dispute will be clear enough.
I would cry too, dont feel silly. How can anybody package a bag that way? The cost makes it worse but any value of bag should be packaged nicely.Aw... thanks! I actually shed tears when I got this bag (and that makes me feel so stupid!) But it's that feeling of being taken (ripped off, actually). Thanks for the kind words!!
I'm curious about this as well. I always assumed she sold her own things. I know it's lots of merchandise, but I presumed that she hit garage sales, consignment stores, etc. I hope someone knows the answer to this one. And you are so right, imonpurseblog, I would have a hissy fit if she packaged something I consigned in that manner!
A good deal of it is consigned, but some is stuff that she found/has herself. It really depends on the item!
Has someone emailed her to tell her it's a fake? If so and she doesn't take it down, she's going to lose even more credibility. Hmmm...
She should definitely be careful with her consigned items. I would seriously have a problem if she treated my stuff like that. I wouldn't let her consign anything for me just from what I've read about her lately. She could totally be a nice lady, but I don't like the way she's been doing business lately.

Don't be silly, you should not feel stupid about your emotions.
I would have been crying too, only it would have been out of anger
I bid you good luck on your dispute
I hope you win!

I have bought a few Hermes items from her in the past and have always received good service.
I am sure it is hard for her to satisfy everyone with her volume of items, especially with the tons of crazies that Ebay tends to attract.

I am watching an item of hers from Ebay now. After reading this thread, I think I'd better pass. Its not worth all the trouble 
Bummer.
Bummer.UPDATE on my transaction:
I returned my item via priority mail on Saturday and Linda's stuff received it early Monday morning (record time for USPS!) Anyway, she gave me a full refund including my shipping charge. She also explained that they do not work on weekends, so that's why my emails and phone calls were not answered over the weekend.
I'm still not thrilled about either the condition of the bag or the haphazard packing job, but a full refund certainly helps!

i'm curious if she relists whether she will point out the folds caused by the poor shipping (and reduce the price) and ship it more carefully next time. i guess we will see....
