Elana's Fund and Ebay advice

We were sitting down to Fresh off the Boat, a very funny show, and Angie happened to look up Elana's fund.  It has been around 29.00 for a couple of months.  We had all but given up hope that people would give to this.  Low and behold, it had gone up to $223.40.  Since we do not know who gave, I'd just like to thank whoever did.  It really means a lot to us.  Like I have written international adoptions are currency intensive.  Not only that, but she will need medical assistance when she gets home.  Feel free to use the link off to the left if you'd like to assist.  Every dollar will help.  Thanks again.

Getting back to Ebay.  We sent out our third poster.  Hopefully, this one will not get damaged.  I double tubed the poster.  The outer tube is stronger than the inner one.  I have learned another thing that I would like to share.  The post office does not refund shipping.  Why?  They damage the package, but keep their fees.  I just don't get it.  I think from now on, we will value our posters or whatever we sell with the shipping.  Then, we will offer "free shipping".  Instead of $5.00 for the poster and $7.00 for the shipping, in the US, we will just say $12.00 with "free shipping".  That way, if the PO damages the poster, we can get the value of the posters back through the claim.  If you do sell on Ebay and use the PO, you might want to consider this approach.
