Glad to be of some help Rosy ! As I said, I use ebay for just about everything today. It is the biggest and best second hand bookshop in the world, for instance ! Cartridges for my printer, a new doorbell, a wonderful mousemat, with a Spitfire on it, and some special dog shampoo are only some of things I have bought recently. As Elina has said, Click and Collect is wonderful, and most things seem to be available postage-free.
So, make ebay your first port of call in the future...you will be amazed !
