   Myrna from dinnerwarereplacements.net sent in her thoughts on buying and   
   selling online.  We've published all the responses, but here is one that just   
   came in:   
      
   "Bought an item from a person on the east coast. When it arrived here on the   
   west coast, the item (in bubble wrapping, paper towels, etc) in the box was   
   dirty but not damaged.  The seller claimed it must have gotten dirty during   
   travels with the shipment processed as it was clean when packed.  I managed to   
   get a refund from them but to this day still donCÇÖt know how an item gets   
   dirty CÇ£inCÇØ a package. Must have been very small particles finding their   
   way into all the wrapping."
