Last month I decided to buy some chisel tip Sharpies from this guy on eBay. Initially I ordered a packet of 12 blue (bargain at just under £5 for 12!) but he sent me 12 Red instead.
I wrote to him and he realised that sending them back wasn't going to be worth it so he told me to keep them and sent again.
However, when I opened the second pack, I realised that he'd sent the wrong item again, this time he'd sent me 12 blue Super Sharpies. So I wrote to him again, faintly embarrassed, and asked him for my blue chisel tips.
This time around he sent the right thing and we were both relieved. I got to keep the whole lot, thus acquiring 36 sharpies for the price of 12. Great feedback of course as he was gracious and quick in dispatching.
Initially I had planned to just use the blue chisels for water and skies, but with this much red to use I figure I had best do some blue and red pics.
This is what happens when Obama eats too much chicken.
The remaining Sharpies are up for sale on my eBay profile
[UPDATE - When I posted this on my Flickr profile I managed to rub someone up the wrong way. Another user saw this and thought that my fat Obama was disrespectful and started mouthing off about how "If you disagree can't you say something intelligent". I replied that actually I don't disagree with Obama and actually quite like the guy. Just cos I can't draw him very well doesn't mean I have sinister political motives. Naturally the mouthy twat didn't reply with an apology about getting the wrong end of the stick. Sad really that people are so quick to shoot their mouths off, but not so quick to admit they may have been wrong.]
