actually tbh I'm more concerned I'm going to end up with "mr slow" (as I like to call him under my breath) as he works SOOOOOOOOOOOOOo slowly it's painful to watch

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 21/11/2008 12:57

woohoo - 16 parcels all posted - took about 20 minutes - there was no queue when I arrived, a huge one formed while I was there, and by the time it had all gone again (been served by other people lol).

The woman that did it was lovely - although got slightly panicky when the computer "lost" the 9 items she'd already put the through lol.

Lilyloo What a nightmare. I don't think i would have offered money off. I would want them all sent back at their cost! Seems to put them off returning them lol!

FAQ Thanks. Not a problem to wait for the rest. Hope to post Tuesday but i have a pile to post already! If not will be Thursday if thats ok?
I have a Mr Slow at my PO too! Really annoying!! And he doesn't put any info on the reciept to say which parcel it goes with! The other one either types it to verify postcode or writes the postcode and house name/number on it.

DD1 and DD2 WILL be going to bed in about an hour then i am going to list as much as i can onto Turbo lister then upload to Ebay. Will do 7 day listing and lots of BINs i think. Hopefully that will get it all done and i can send before my op.

SNOWBall4girlz · 21/11/2008 19:34

Well i have 13 items on two bids 7 watchers and not many sales lol
my stuff
I have a load of girls age 2 yrs designer stuff to go on but want a least a fiver for the sets hope this does not put people off

..catimini 3 piece and a baby darlings 4 piece inc coat

kenzo play wear set as well I have been hoarding it keeping it all but need to get rid as my girls need the space in the wardrobes.

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 21/11/2008 19:47

Tortoise Tuesday or Thursday is absolutely fine .

Oh and snowball - I posted your whatsit today - so hopefully will arrive with you tomorrow or Monday

tortoise · 21/11/2008 20:13

I have just spent £50 on the Boots website lol! Saved £17 doing 3 for 2 plus they are giving £10 worth of free points for the next 3 days so i got that too.

Lilyloo Your link takes me to myEbay! Not to your listings.

I am not getting on very well! I'm trying to get pics off DS2's camera. My friend borrowed mine to take pics of her sons bed for me to sell for her. But she forgot it lol! Plus PC on a go slow.

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 21/11/2008 21:45

Lilyloo · 21/11/2008 21:46

right what am i doing wrong

Lilyloo · 21/11/2008 21:48

aaha here

tortoise · 21/11/2008 23:01

Added strawberry shortcake doll to my watch list! DD2 loves her!
Didn't i see someone on MN asking for sportacus moustaches the other day?

I managed to list a whole 5 items! Just couldn't get into it tonight.

skramble · 21/11/2008 23:06

Oh yes I forgot you can use ebay at boots, transfered some money already to use for Christmas treats, I might use some there to.

tortoise · 21/11/2008 23:36

I am still trying to get DS1 a PSP. The price just goes too high unless it is faulty! Even then they sell well!

Lilyloo · 22/11/2008 10:33

tortoise yeah i replied but she never got back to me so thought they might help out another little sportacus fan!
Such a shame about the psp wish you had responded to my thread earlier. Am still looking for you!

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 22/11/2008 12:34

right now the serious ebaying begins - just done my last table top/car boot of the year (took £25 - including £10 from my BF's DH who bought my hifi off me lol - although he's taken it and is going to give me the money next time he sees me) - so made £20 in total.

I've set myself until just before Christmas to sell the lot of it. If it's not sold by then it's being freecycled - I am NOT taking any of this stuff with me when I move.

Have left all the boxes I took with me in the hallway - so about to have a fag then get the first box and start getting them onto Turbo lister - and will upload them later tonight............wish me luck - there's a LOT of stuff pmsl. Once everything in each box has been ebayed I can then take it back upstairs and put onto DS2's bottom bunk where I'm storing most of my stuff.

tortoise · 22/11/2008 13:20

Thanks Lilyloo please find me one lol!! There is one on Ebay BIN £50 but the analogue stick is missing. I did see someone seeling the part but not sure how easy it is to just replace. Maybe i should just go for it!

Good luck FAQ! I am going to ignore DD's i think and get listing onto turbo lister to upload tonight. I have loads of books but is it worth listing them all? Or do i try a book bundle?

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 22/11/2008 13:27

Thanks haven't started yet lol - delaying it.

I'm going to list most of mine in book bundles I think - apart from one or two that are either

a) in really good condition (hardly used)
b) my hymn books and some of my music ones

Aiming to start at 2pm................(was always aiming to start at 1am lol)

tortoise · 22/11/2008 14:13

Hope you have started FAQ!

My comp shut down and have spent the last half hr plus getting it set back up!

DD's are making more mess doing art and crafts stuff.

guyFAwkesreQuiem · 22/11/2008 14:16

Yes I've just made a start - have my BF's DH pop round to give me the £10 for the stereo - and I was explaining (or trying to lol) Ebay to him

Babywhiting · 22/11/2008 14:30

I wish i could sell on ebay but because i live in this rented house which has obviously had an ebayer living here before who did something wrong i guess! They kick me off everytime i register this address!!!! gits !!!!

tortoise · 22/11/2008 14:35

Babywhiting Have you tried phoning Ebay on their helpline and explaining to them? Must be very annoying for you.
