Random mindset millionaires. MJ had a ranch named Neverland (Peter Pan's home) where children never grow up.

Everyone had dreams and wishes. In fact, many millionaires have dreams that all their money cannot buy.

I gt some question for ebay/paypal

i am going to setup a paypal account and dont own any credit card.My bank account is POSB ,now i have several questions

1) i know that sending $$ doesnt get charged but the receiver will get charged by whatever % listed there .I also saw a "return fee" what does it do?

2) I read about the reverse of transaction and didnt understand this part.Eg: you are a seller in ebay[sell small stuff like cards] and the buyer choose regular mail .So the buyer pay $ then u click "ok to ship" right?? After that the buyer decided to play cheat and claim item not received.What method do you use to settle this?


3) I want to link the posb acc to the paypal ,should i use a credit card or debit card?? which 1 is preferable?? Is there anyway to apply online or must go down to the bank and do the application??

4) Lets say i sold a stuff in ebay which is $10,when the buyer pays the $$ the amount of $ i receive is lesser than $10?? [minus $$ due to ebay charge and paypal charge]

Your help is appreciated ,thanks.

Try to imagine this:

You have a novel, a comic book and a TV series that are all based on the same show.

Novel = Light Novel
Comic Book = Manga
TV series = Anime

To explain light novels it's probably best to imagine a manga with much less illustrations and much more text.

Nitrous Oxide. Have you ever heard of pigs laughing at the wolf from inside their house? Well they are all addicted to that, and it kills them fast in large doses.

Now answer my question : WHO IS THAT CUTE LITTLE THING? I want to know before I bleed to death from her cuteness!

Doesn't Nitrous give boost as you are driving when you tap X ?

I have a question about Japanese/Asian clothing sizes
I saw this wonderful skirt:
http://translate.googleusercontent.c...L48EE10I9gPVvQ

However the size chart is confusing to me, specially the waist part:
http://www.nissen.co.jp/sho_item/size/080300722.asp

This skirt, is it supposed to start at your belly button or higher? I don't get it do Asian women have tiny waists or something?
If I measure my waist at my belly button I come to the maximum of 79 CM, but the other measurement they have listed for hip is then far too big for me, my hip size is around 2 sizes smaller than the amount they have listed with the corresponding waist size

^As far as I know, Japanese clothes, size-wise, are measured at the same places as Western ones; however, their sizes - at least for men's clothing for things like 'S', 'M' and so on - are smaller when compared to U.S.'s.

From that sizing chart, for each size given from 58 to 76, it looks like it's breaking down the dimensions for those 4 listed areas. A size 58 should be suitable for a woman with (up to) a 60-cm waist and 90-cm hips, an inseam of 52-cm, and 125-cm circumference (or whatever that is called ) as measured from the bottom.

Not everyone fits in some marketing idealistic size chart anyway; I'm sure you know this.

If the question is "do Asian women have tiny waists or something?", the answer would be yes.

The healthy girls we have here really do have a figure like anime characters.

According to the picture and description it seem that you wear it waist high. And yes, these sizings seem to have a bigger difference between waist-hips than westerns usually have. I think the difference in waist-hips in western(European) charting is usually about 25-26 cm, here it's 29 cm. So the more accurate thing to say here would be that Japanese women have wider hips, which make their waists look smaller

If I was you, I'd only look for the waist here, since it's a skirt, and the design is more puffy anyways. Do what you think is right...

Thank you ^^
I know those sizes seem very weird.. same with sweaters and shirts, for some reason they hardly have bust measurements fitting for people who have a C-cup either >.<
