EdieMcredie That is fab. Do you have lots that are worth good money?

Have listed a few more bits. Can't see me making much out of them though. I need something worth more to make enough money. Time is running out!

I will join this, I ahve lots to sell.

Spink · 29/09/2008 14:51

expat has just inspired me to join this thread - I'm already making a pile of things to sell, will prob photograph them on Weds when I have a free moment and start selling!!

Really good to hear the success stories so far. How much did you get for your DS game, Edie, I've got a few that I'd happily shift - hadn't thought about selling them til I read your post

katz · 29/09/2008 14:55

count me in, although i may sell some of the toys through the nearly new sale they have at the beginning of nov.

I have to sell

Vsmile console, games, art studio and dance mat.
ELC garage
various other toys
buggy snuggle cosey toe
thousands of girls clothes!
must have a hunt around and see if there's anything more!

i need to get stuff onto turbo lister - count me in too. £350 would almost pay for xmas

Wuxiapian · 29/09/2008 18:57

Just added a few more bits for your perusal.

tortoise · 29/09/2008 22:24

more stuff listed.
Still only 1 bid though!

EdieMcredie · 30/09/2008 11:33

Spink-I got £16 for my game!

frogs · 30/09/2008 12:15

Here's my current list and I'm about to add some more on Thursday. I'm up to about £221 since August, after selling a mega-bundle of dd2's clothes for £122 .

About to put a load of Brio on, and some more boy's clothes. Must ask the dc for any Nintendo stuff they don't play with.

MascaraOHara · 01/10/2008 07:40

I'm going to spend some more time listing some things today.. If I can make another £400 it'll pay for my holiday I don't exoect to make that much but it's kind of motivated me!

I will post a link to the things I have listed later.

My cot went but the other 3 items are all still without bids atm

MascaraOHara · 01/10/2008 12:45

here are my items so far

libralady · 01/10/2008 18:27

Count me in. I'm in the process of phtographing all my stuff so will take some time to list.
My stuff is here

tortoise · 03/10/2008 18:31

My 1st 9 items end tonight and they all have at least 1 bid
Might list a few more items later if i get a chance.

Upsadaisy · 03/10/2008 18:40

Me too! have a box of stuff to put on ebay and could do with the cash for christmas

newshmoo · 03/10/2008 19:10

thankyou tortoise for the info ebay is just sooo addictive ..like i go into practical trance state..DH is getting used to it btw

FAQ · 03/10/2008 19:12

You know I think I may join you on this one - I have a (large) double bedroom FULL (literally - I can't get into bed atm, and the floor is totally covered in boxes) of stuff to get rid of - hopefully before Christmas.

Won't be listing anything for a few days at least though as I still need to sort through it all properly

Lilyloo · 03/10/2008 19:40

ooh tortoise i have that poncho that both dd's wore for christening but prob won't wear again will have to put that on !

tortoise · 03/10/2008 20:03

Lilylou Worth putting it on i think. (I paid 99p for it in a charity shop. )

Lilyloo · 03/10/2008 20:43

wow double bargain dd1 aunty bought it for her for her christening was about £25 -30 i think! But would never dream of putting dd2 in it it's too lovely to be slavered upon!

tortoise · 03/10/2008 20:49

wow £25-£30. No wonder it has a few bids. They are getting a bargain.
I keep refeshing to check for more bids lol. Total money in bids so far is £40.86 I am very happy with that.

Lilyloo · 03/10/2008 21:01

I am just gutted i have sold most of my stuff now However am sure i can find more! Makes the listing worthwhile watching the bids come in!
P.S ds loves the Horrid Henry book have just got him more for xmas off ebay!

tortoise · 03/10/2008 21:27

Trawl the charity shops for more! Lots of bargains to be had there!
My ds2 loves horrid henry too but had the ones i was selling already. I have got him more for his birthday.

tortoise · 03/10/2008 22:55

£47.09 Not bad for one night.
Has paypal fees gone up? Payment £7.50, 46p goes in fees .
So i have really made less than that after the millions of fees everyone takes!

Wuxiapian · 04/10/2008 16:27

Yes, tortoise, they have.

I was pretty alarmed when I signed in to paypal.

Why are they making so hard?!

tortoise · 04/10/2008 16:36

I had an email saying i need to update info because of the amount of money made this year. I had to phone up because they wanted buisness info and credit card details. I have neither. He showed me how to do the business bit but insisted i must put a credit card on! He just couldn't understand that i don't have one!
