MEN ARE FROM MARS, WOMEN ARE FROM VENUS

Practical guide for improving communication and getting what you want in your relationship by John Gray. Once upon a time Martians and Venusians met, fell in love, and had happy relationships together because they respected and accepted their differences. Then they came to earth and amnesia set in: they forgot they were from different planets. Using this metaphor to illustrate the commonly occurring conflicts between men and women, Gray explains how these differences can come between the sexes and prohibit mutually fulfilling loving relationships. Based on years of successful counselling of couples, he gives advice on how to counteract these differences in communication styles, emotional needs and modes of behaviour to promote a greater understanding between individual partners. Gray shows how men and women react differently in conversation and how their relationships are affected by male intimacy cycles ("get close", "back off"), and female self-esteem fluctuations ("I'm okay", "I'm not okay"). He encourages readers to accept the other gender's particular way of expressing love, and helps men and women learn how to fulfil each other's emotional needs. With practical suggestions on how to reduce conflict, crucial information on how to interpret a partner's behaviour and methods for preventing emotional "trash from the past" from invading new relationships, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus is a valuable tool for couples who want to develop deeper and more satisfying relationships with their partners.

FREE POSTAGE TO UK CUSTOMERS – IMPORTANT INFORMATION.

All items will be sent via second class unless the item is over 1kg.

Since postage is free, if you are interested in or are bidding on more than one item, within a fourteen day period, please DO NOT PAY until ALL the auctions have ended, so we can dispatch items in one parcel and please contact us when the last one has, so we can send you an invoice.

If the Royal Mail is unable to deliver your parcel and you are unable to collect it from your local sorting office, if they return it to us, we will require you to pay the postage costs, for us to resend it…If this does occur, we hope you understand that since the parcel was originally dispatched free of charge, we cannot do so again, if you are unable to collect it from your local sorting office (NOT post office), as collecting items from there are the responsibility of customers (i.e. We cannot physically collect items from your local sorting office and deliver it to you personally ourselves). As items are kept at sorting offices for twenty one working days, before being returned, we strongly urge you to check with your local sorting office first, to avoid this occurring, as ‘while you were out’ cards are not always put through doors…(We have been informed by the Royal Mail, that recipients must check with their local sorting office, otherwise, we would do it for you).

UK AND WORLDWIDE

Although only UK p+p is quoted on the auction, we sell worldwide. So if you are a non UK resident and you are interested in this item, please contact us and we will be more than happy, to quote you s/h costs…..

UK customers, please note that first and second class (when available) is stated on the auction and that second class is only available up to and including 1kg, as per the Royal Mail.

COMBINED POSTING/SHIPPING IS AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE

Combined p+p (s/h) is based on weight (and in the UK, size too)…As specific amounts are not deducted for each subsequent item won, Ebay will not know how much to deduct, so please wait until you receive an invoice before you pay.

Combined p+p (s/h) is only available, if ALL items are paid for in ONE payment and for items that end within a fourteen day period….However, if you have already won items and are interested in bidding on others that end after the fourteen days, please contact us and we will inform you, if it is ok to wait for payment, until the other auctions have ended

If you are bidding on multiple items, please contact us, when the last auction has ended, so we will be able to invoice you, with combined p+p (s/h) costs.

If you have already received an invoice and you are bidding on or are interested in bidding on other items, please DO NOT PAY, until ALL the auctions have ended. Once they have done so, please contact us, so we can send you an amended invoice.

Although, we try and dispatch your items in one parcel, we may have to split your items into more than one, due to weight or size restrictions.

PAYMENT DETAILS.

Payment is to reach us within seven working days…If for any reason you are unable to pay within this time (for example, you may be on holiday, when the auction ends), please contact us

DESPATCH DETAILS

You will receive acknowledgement of your payment and will be sent details on when your item(s), will be or has been sent, via the Ebay message system.

We dispatch items once a day and within 24 to 48 hours of receiving payment…However, there are a few exceptions to this, but you will always be informed via Ebay’s message system.

Weekends – Items cannot be dispatched on Saturdays and of course, on Sundays..Therefore, items paid for on Saturday, will be dispatched on Monday. If it is a bank/public holiday on that day, then it will be the next available day.

Bank/public holidays in the UK – Non UK customers, please note that post offices are shut on these days, so your items will be despatched the next available day

Postal strikes – Unfortunately, this does occur and is beyond everybody’s control

Paypal does not always send payment details immediately and there can be quite a wait for them to do so……Therefore, if you pay for items on Friday and the daily dispatching has already been done, then your parcel will be sent on Monday, or if it is a bank/public holiday, the next available day.

PLEASE NOTE

Please bear in mind, that although items are always DESPATCHED when we say they will be, we are not responsible for how long they take to be DELIVERED as that is down to the postal services :)

If the postal services are unable to deliver your parcel and you are unable to collect it from your local sorting office, if they return it to us, we will require you to pay the postage costs again, for us to resend it

COLLECTION

It is no problem at all to collect your items…..However, please contact us, so we can arrange a conveniently mutual day and an approximate time…PLEASE DO NOT JUST TURN UP, AS WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT WE WILL BE IN.
