10-15 foot sound walls alongside the motorways. Makes it hard to spot landmarks or simply make a long trip go by watching the scenery.

Hope they dont start charging for recycle bags in the future, buying black bags is enough because they only provide 2 rolls to last for a year

People who don't leave feedback on ebay when you have sold or bought something, and sellers who withdraw a sale on ebay when you are bidding on that item.

Re: Your very petty pet hates

My only gripe about eBay is that I wish the stuff I'm selling got as many bids as the stuff I try to bid on because it seems that whenever I bid on something not only do I invariably get outbid but the bidding often goes right through the roof! And the mindboggling part is that many of my interests are arcane enough to where you wouldn't think there'd be very much interest in it so you'd think THAT would work in my favour!

Re: Your very petty pet hates

I never leave feedback now. I can't be bothered. I hate the way you have to write a comment instead of just scoring stars and being done with it.

Re: Your very petty pet hates

I just leave one word comments such as "Great!", "Super!", "Thanks!", etc.

Re: Your very petty pet hates

I've experienced both extremes with eBay over the years. All it takes is two "got to have it at any cost" types getting into a bidding war and the price can get ridiculously high, even when it's not something especially rare or unusual and there are at least a dozen other similar items on eBay at the same time going for much more reasonable prices. On the other hand, there have been occasions when I've been pleasantly surprised and won an item which I thought would probably make at least £40 to £50, only to find I was the only bidder and got it for £5 or less.

Among the things I sell are vintage Snoopy pins (my "inheiritance" -- long story! lol) which I start at £4.99 and it usually sells for that much but I've had a few which had sold for around £60 and each time either the winner or one of the bidders was in Japan.

Re: Your very petty pet hates

The key to eBay is sniping. Love it or hate it, that's the best way to go about getting stuff you want. Getting into a bidding war is for fools.

Re: Your very petty pet hates

Undoubtedly - For anything I'm really trying to win, I decide my upper limit and always make just one bid in the last few seconds.

Shopping in Tesco I spotted this youngster trying to push her trolley whilst messing about with her smart phone,not watching what she was doingI could not believe what I saw bad enough to hear them on their phones without having to avoid her and her trolley
