    For my own use, inches, when selling, centimetres (when I remember!)... cos not everybody's an old fogey like me.

    Ah~ now when I see those cm things, I get confused.

    Sometimes it puts me off buying, coz I'm a lazy devil, who doesn't want to work it all out.

    Guess centimetres is the "norm" but still understand inches better. Guess I am an old fogie too.

    LOL Well, it's not like I'm selling anything that's size-critical. It would only be to say approximately how tall a vase is or something. If I was selling something like clothes, where the measurements were important, I'd probably give both.

    Cauld be a little confusing if while selling cloths, someone would say "about so many inchs", right?

    Inches, but you know US, behind the times. We don't even know what a cm is!
