      Yeah saw an article about the CBSL trying to implement paypal in SL, but it havent worked out. I got hold of a trusty friend whos is living abroad T think I can use his paypal account to transfer money.

      My brother is selling on ebay from very first days they made it availabe in Sri Lanka. He uses a forign account.

      Yes refunds are processed just like any online payment cancelation.

      Also using paynioeer & similar methods are not financially feasible either. ebay & paypal together keep about 10%-12% on final sale value. so all together we are losing about 20% money. considering shipping charges, etc it's not easy to make profit. But if you use a forign account...

      My item finally got sold to a poor bugger in US and I shipped it via EMS. But like MkX told there is not much profit cuz paypal and ebay took a percentage of the sale. and my freind has to send me money through his foreign bank account and that may cost some more.

  5. MR. Rest in anuradhapura, just as you pass the ancient city. Had a nice lunch and dinner with fresh water fish.
  6. At Ambepussa the restaurant that is managed by the hotel corporation. Hoppers and string hoppers were great as well as the short eats. Rest rooms were very clean and the service was ok, though ones I had to wait a little while for my order to process. Prices seemed a bit high.

  8. Just watched this. Nice movie. Endless loops and paradox, makes me dizzy thinking about it
  9. Apes was great, all the previous movies are starting to make sense now. Just watched Maze Runner, first half was good, but the plot could have been better.
  10. I also didn’t know that. I would like to see him back. What about a new live chat feature? I enjoyed the old one, though it may probably gobble up bandwidth.
  11. Can a 7 year old cars original paint be faded?

      Can happen. if its a metalic covered in clear coat n parked under the sun regularly. Otherwise unlikely.

      It would be more of the clear coat having issues than the paint perse.

      Thanks guys, Im looking at this 2007 black allion. It is re painted, cant seem to find any accident repairs. The owner said he repainted because the paint was faded due to parking under the sun. Some exterior plastic parts seems to be faded too. So its probably true.

  12. Does the Featured Vehicle of the Day on AL home page ever change?

  13. ooh where can I get one of those?
  14. Didnt the carina had DWB on the rear?

      Thanks all for your comments, I didn't have time to check, but the problem seems to be fixed now. Anyway will take a good look over the weekend.

  17. ^ LOL! true that.
  18. If you are concerned about fuel go for a 2012/13 Aqua, because it looks like you will be running some good kms per a month. I have not personally driven a aqua but many say that its quite comfortable, maybe not as much as an axio, allion or a civic, but descent for its size. But ground clearance, rear passenger room and luggage space will be less. It will be a newer car than the others so repairs would be minimal, you will be able to run it without any major issues for at least another 5 years. Anyway it all depends on your requirements and preferences. Test drive some cars on your list and see.
  19. First of all I like your avatar Congratulations and a good choice of a car. Davy has given you excellent advice, get those things done and most likely all the problems will be solved. As Davy mentioned get a good tune up done, change the plugs and air filter with good quality ones, and change your ATF asap. Hopefully your low RPM issue will go away after that.
  20. Import tax for electric vehicles are reduced by 25%, nothing about hybrids. But probably all vehicle prices might go down with the proposed new tax scheme.
  21. Happy B'day and Happy budget machan!
  22. Nothern and Rathnapura Expressways to be finished by 2017: http://newsfirst.lk/english/2014/10/president-reveals-expected-year-opening-northern-ratnapura-expressways/59679
  23. Yes its a part of the Northern Expressway, which will connect Kandy and Jafna to Colombo.
  24. Think she works at HNB assurance, at least she used to be, before becoming a super star. That's one el-cheapo ad.
  25. At last the president has given priority for the Northern Expressway, construction will commence next month. http://www.adaderana.lk/bizenglish/construction-of-the-portion-of-the-northern-expressway-from-enderamulla-to-galewela-and-the-portion-of-the-link-expressway-from-pothuhera-to-galagedara/
