I know there was a thread on this not long ago. Well, I win the "How Stupid Can You Be" award for today.

Sold a pair of ladies black shoes-buyer pays. Get ready to pack them up today. They're NAVY-NOT BLACK. How could I have made such a dumb mistake!!

Still waiting for response from buyer-I offered to cancel if they didn't want navy shoes. Geez.

I have a hard time telling navy from black sometimes. If I'm not sure, I hold the item up next to something I know is black and then it is easier to see the difference.

Shouldn't be a problem at all. Just do an NPB, FVF that you both agreed to cancel the transaction. I'm sure the buyer wanted black, but may settle for blue -try it eitherway. I've done dumber things and got away with it. People are human and subject to mistakes. That's how we got here!

Heard from buyer today-says navy will be fine and don't worry about the mistake. How nice is that! I sent the shoes along with a small gift to thank her for her understanding.
