Didn't do to bad last night. DS's robot wars toys went ok, some didn't sell but will try them again at some point but will have to start lower so that listing is free!

ok have added some things to ebay today - omg it takes so long doesn't it?

here

really need to get rid of everything we no longer need so we can move house and as we are so short of money - being out of work is no fun at all!

ElizabethWakefield · 21/09/2010 20:57

Hi, I have not been on ebay much since I was stopped from listing earlier in the month, but I added a few things tonight

Here they are

Hoping to get a few more items on tomorrow night too.

ElizabethWakefield · 21/09/2010 22:17

Have been asked if I would consider a buy it now on the Monsoon coat. I have asked what kind of price they were thinking. I have 4 watchers on it so far!

notcitrus · 22/09/2010 12:38

Well from 20 items, a couple still running, and made a whole £25. Whoop-de-do. Some bits I'll dump on the charity shop but I'll re-list a few of them.

Annoying when lots of watchers don't result in any bids.

SNOWBall4girlz · 23/09/2010 10:18

not doing much better sold about £12 worth last night but keep plodding
got one parcel missing has to be the one thing that sold for over £20 last week :(

happy ebaying :)

overthemill · 23/09/2010 13:37

just spent hours listing girls' clothes - hope some at least sell.

discovered abebooks buyback for books - they don't buy 'anything' but its quick and easy to use!

OhCobblers · 23/09/2010 14:13

up to £139 but a 1/4 haven't sold - some i will re-list - few other bits i'm going to wait 'til Oct/Nov as think they're good Stocking fillers!

Finally sold a pair of Designer trousers on its 4th listing - would have bet money on them going 1st time round!

LoveBeingInvitedToTheVIPSale · 24/09/2010 16:44

Right gonna have a big ebay weekend i think, hopefully all the stuff from the free listing weekend will be finishing and I'll do well Smile

Tortoise · 24/09/2010 17:49

Yay Free listing weekend again! Grin
Will re-list unsold bits (Does this work for free listing?) and sort out the cupboard to see if anything worth listing in there!
DD2 wants to get rid of most of her my little pony bits but i think better to list them nearer to Christmas!

LoveBeingInvitedToTheVIPSale · 24/09/2010 17:58

cool

ElizabethWakefield · 25/09/2010 14:54

I have had a few offers now on My monsoon coat, but i have decided to let it go to auction. i noticed that exactly the same one in the same size sold for £40 the other night, so fingers crossed. It is only at £1.20 just now but has 37 watchers!

I also have 24 watchers on my hat and scarf set, but no bids, and 17 watchers on a cardigan. Hoping for lots of last minute bids on things!! Still a few days left to go tho.

ragged · 25/09/2010 15:08

I am jealous, I have loads to list but will be pleased to get 30 quid profit when the sales are all finished, never mind 300 Grin.

roosterroo · 25/09/2010 15:57

Hi everyone,

am busy looking for things to list, tripp trapp sold and was collected - very pleased with that!

Ds2 has now decided that the robots are his favourite toys so wont be listing those for the time being, until he forgets about them Wink

roosterroo · 25/09/2010 16:48

ok, here we are all listed here
shop.ebay.co.uk/lrud3454/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p4340

good luck to everyone else who's busy listing !

13 weeks to Christmas Hmm

Tortoise · 25/09/2010 19:07

Wow EW. Lots of watchers is good. Hope they bid. Smile

Will hopefully sort items out tomorrow to list. Bad head today has stopped me from doing too much. Sad

Tortoise · 26/09/2010 15:29

I still haven't got to pulling out the cupboard. I seem to have another bad cold. Sad Not is drippy and i keep sneezing. Sad
Will try and do some listing tonight.

OP posts:
overthemill · 26/09/2010 21:00

i have done £384 but that is mainly two big things and now waiting for all the little bits and pieces.

Tortoise · 26/09/2010 21:11

Very disappointed that i only got around to re-listing unsold items. Not sure that was free either! Oh well!

OP posts:
JudyPink · 26/09/2010 22:23

Yellow ladies! I've made £112 tonight. Listed loads more here tonight. Going to list even more on Wednesday too; thought I might aswell now I'm in "the zone". heh

overthemill · 26/09/2010 22:34

judypink haven't you done well, so far. well done!

louvert · 27/09/2010 11:17

Have done a few recently and definitely need to sell more for Christmas. Listed lots of plus size clothing over the past couple of weeks. Plus various other bits and pieces. Listings here

I mostly use turbo lister but have done it directly over the weekend and it actually feels easier.

SNOWBall4girlz · 27/09/2010 12:13

relisted a lot but need to update my auction as lumping stuff together as bundles but no managed to swap the pics about yet.

one bloke has already messaged me saying that the pic for the leather jacket wont fit him and he would look daft in the pub in it lol will sort the pics out tonight
ebay not a priority today hate mondays :( lol
