Title: anyone here speak french
Post by: wrldstrman on February 01, 2006, 11:51:06 PM
I sold some items worldwide and the winning bidder doesnt seem to understand what im telling him..

The problem is ebays checkout they sent has global airmail at 150.00 dollars   I told the buyer that I took all the items he won to the post office and that I could ship to him for 33.35..  Im trying to explain to him that he doesnt have to use the ebay checkout that he can just go to paypal and put the amounts in himself.....everytime i send a email he keeps ranting about not paying 150.00 shipping  which I wouldnt either  but I can seem to get across the shipping is only 33.35.....Is there somekind of site that you can use to translate english into french.

i also put this in wrong forum could someone move it   thanks

You can use www.freetranslation.com to translate text...I use it frequently and it works like a charm!

i once dated a russian girl and i would use http://www.freetranslation.com/free/ to get my message accross. nothing is translated 199% accurate. i would make sure you keep your sentences short and sweet. for example:

i am using a translation web page for this email. i recieved your payment. i sent your game yesterday. what questions do you have?


make sure you take their text and translate it your self, with the link i provided. good luck.
