New Year challenge

202 replies

NappyShedSal · 31/12/2010 20:55

I missed the Christmas challenge as my mum died and I spent a fair bit of time with her, then the funeral etc. So I have today listed 32 items and still have a few more to list tomorrow. So, shall we start a new challenge - what shall we make it?

Here's my listings so far
my items

Any tips / comments from you regular ebayers as to how to improve any of the listings? I've tried doing a BIN price with most of them this time - not sure if this will improve my chances and whether I've pitched the prices right.

Me too tortoise straight from ebay they do nice purple and gold ones too.
Saves time and look nice as well.

SNOWBall4girlz · 08/03/2011 22:57

SNOWBall4girlz · 09/03/2011 13:58

I have a few bits ending today the monsoon trousers only have a couple of watchers but a few bids :)here

tortoise you after sz 1 trainers?
got a white and pastel slip on type from m/c new ?

Tortoise · 09/03/2011 19:59

baabi Had a look but nothing in those bits Smile. Not being rude but why £3 postage on the white long sleeve poodle top? I imagine it would possibly fold small enough for large letter. Smile

SNOW DD1 not quite a size 1 yet but maybe interested as i can put them away until they fit Smile.

Tortoise · 09/03/2011 20:41

Baabi I am SadAngry I clicked bid to bid on dalmatian top and it came up 'thank you for signing out' Hmm WTF! Of course i left it to the last 15secs to bid so it was too late to sign in again. Sad

Oh and DS2 just pointed out that the title said mini Moden not Boden. I hadn't even noticed.

I will go on and pay for the dress from the other day now. Smile

baabi · 09/03/2011 22:37

Tortoise, thank you for pointing out the postage for the white top. It has now been corrected, obviously pressed the wrong number! Trying to list as much as possible in one go as I have so much to put on an end up making errors. The dress will be posted on Saturady if I can get to town otherwise it will be on Monday. Thanks

Tortoise · 10/03/2011 22:55

I am not happy! I bought a ps3 game for DS1's birthday and the seller has just contacted me saying they wish to refund me and try again to sell it for more! Is there anything I can do about it? I have told them to send it or I will report to ebay but will ebay do anything about it?

SNOWBall4girlz · 10/03/2011 23:30

You can ask them not as you will leave a neg saying why ....its against policy as a sale is a binding contract surely?

You sold your ds for the opening bid you were disappointed but kept your end of the bargain

why is ths seller dfferent bit cheeky we all want more than we get lol.

SNOWBall4girlz · 16/03/2011 15:08

well how did you get on tortoise with the game ?

someone said there might be a free listing weekend soon so getting some stuff in my scheduled folder :)

got three things that are selling and a few things on but really slow this week.
how is everyone else doing?

Tortoise · 16/03/2011 16:14

SNOW they said they would send in the next day or two but still nothing. I emailed them yesterday but no reply. Not happy as is for DS1s birthday. It has been 2 wks now altogether.

SNOWBall4girlz · 19/03/2011 02:16

well its late and just got in from work and winding down with my favourite threads )

hope you have all got lots of suff scheduled for tomorrow and sunday free listing :)

Tortoise · 19/03/2011 08:28

Free listing? Guess I'm not eligible again. Not had email. All down to the stupid star ratings. I don't know why I get marked down on comms when I email to say item being sent or been sent.

SNOWBall4girlz · 20/03/2011 06:57

tortoise not getting an email does not an that you are not eligible have you tried to list this weekend?

Tortoise · 20/03/2011 14:27

I will try and list later. I have 2 very nice child's Monsoon dresses to list.

Tortoise · 20/03/2011 20:36

Four items listed
It wasn't free but i listed them anyway! Are the pictures/description of the dresses ok? Very hard to get a decent photo so show just how lovely they are.

Tortoise · 20/03/2011 21:10

Re-listed 7 items too.

mygirllollipop · 20/03/2011 21:37

Just took me an hour to upload some pics to photobucket! Not impressed. Have listed 26 items and already have 3 watchers even though they've been on 30mins!

roosterroo · 21/03/2011 18:15

Here are mine this week,

thanks for the mail bag links - I had been paying far more!

shop.ebay.co.uk/lrud3454/m.html?_trksid=p4340.l2562

now need to compose myself for meeting with ds2's teacher tomorrow evening think someWine may be in order

mygirllollipop · 22/03/2011 12:16

Wow already 30 watchers and 2 bids on my stuff.
Had hoped to get some more on yesterday but SH had other plans. Hoping to get a bit more on tonight.

SNOWBall4girlz · 22/03/2011 22:07

well despite being poorly I had a load of listings in the scheduled bit so got a fair few things listed and relisted on the sunday and already have a few watchers on a couple of things inclding a girls lilli gaufrette top and a polo shirt from joules.

Not managed to post a couple of things from over the weekend as not left the house but e-mailed and hope the buyers understand.

here

PotatoesOfTheCarribean · 23/03/2011 02:01

I want to blow a huge raspberry to the daft girl who failed to pay for one of my items. I've now relisted, and already LOADS better off this time round.

Tortoise · 26/03/2011 22:44

My items end tomorrow and they are, quite frankly, doing crap! Sad
One item has 3 bids, from the same bidder! Hmm
Monsoon dresses don't even have 1 watcher.

JarethTheGoblinKing · 28/03/2011 14:56

Any luck with your listings Tortoise?

Listed a few things today, some Irregular Choice and Red or Dead shoes, and some Mini Boden.. hoping for quite a haul Grin
