Hi Marie,
     Congratulations on your first Ebay sale - it really is quite a thrill, isn't it.  I still remember my first online sale 3 1/2 years ago!  The more you put up for sale, the more customers you will build up.

    I noticed that you live in Japan - our son moved to Seiyo-shi, Ehime on Shikoku last September.  He teaches English and had lived in South Korea for 5 years before that.  He absolutely loves Japan and had tried to get a job there for a long time.  He's really happy and I don't think he will ever move back to Canada.  He is near mountains and enjoys hiking and bike riding and he loves the children he is teaching.   We get to see him once a year for a couple of weeks and he'll be home for Christmas.  It was hard at first, with him so far away, but email makes it so much easier and all we ever really wanted was our kids to be happy, so how can we complain!   Take care,

                                                        Hugs,

                                                        Brenda

Good idea, Judi! You can also add them to your website (like I do), but get permission from the person first... I only put the first name and the state (and/or country) of the buyer for privacy reasons bear_original
