xe.com - The Universal Currency Converter

Need to know what Australian dollars translate to in your currency? This live online currency converter is the best I've found, and can convert between just about any currency you can name.

Online Measurement Conversion Tool

Being in Australia and therefore using the metric system, all measurements in my listings are given in millimetres (mm) and/or centimetres (cm). If you need to convert these to inches, here is a handy online tool. This same website also contains conversion tools for weight/mass, temperature, speed, volume, date/time and just about anything else you could think of!

eBay Clothing/Footwear Sizing Guide

This is the official eBay sizing guide. As clothing/footwear sizing can vary significantly from one brand to another or between countries, this link will help you to determine your standard size. Measuring instructions and sizing charts are provided as a general guideline and there is even a printable tape measure. Very handy!

The Official Australia Post Website

Just what it says! The website contains all the information you'd ever need to know about postal services in Australia, including a postage cost calculator, postcode search tool, and postal guides for domestic and international mail.

Auction Snipe and JustSnipe

Like to snipe? Some eBayers hate snipers, but I don't have any problem with the practice. Both these sites offer a free service which automatically places your bids at the last possible moment, although each has a limit to the number of "free snipes" you receive. Schedule your bid at your convenience and the sniping sevice will place it with seconds to go, leaving you free to go about your business without worrying about when to bid next. I have used both on occasion and can recommened them.

The Australian Horror Writers Association Website

Lastly - and on a completely unrelated topic - here is the official website of the Australian Horror Writers Association (AHWA), a non-profit organisation formed 2003 to provide a unified voice and a sense of community for Australian writers of dark fiction, while helping the development and evolution of this genre within Australia. If you're interested in gothic, dark fantasy, mystery, thriller or horror fiction and/or films, then you might want to visit this site and even consider joining the AHWA.
