Summer Ebay Challenge!!! Shall we try for another £300?

I need motivating to de-clutter and make my bank account look a bit healthier!!! I've got loads of bags and boxes packed with car-boot stuff that didn't sell the other week so might start with that and list those things at 99p just to make a bit of space.

Anyone with me? Shall we set the deadline for end of Summer term (about the 18th July here)?

Wow, crazy night on Ebay for me, lots of questions and my Jason artwork sold for £200 which I am really chuffed about, but will miss it Also had a best offer on the graphics card so sold that too. Lots of shop clothes have sold which is weird as it was V quiet yesterday! Only managed to list 4 items of mine tonight HERE already a couple of watchers though!

I have a bid on the FAULTY PS2 already!
Bubble Glad things selling well for you.

Had to remove DS2's Nintendogs toy. Bloody dog decided he would chew it's tail off.

bubblerock · 11/05/2009 12:04

lol - sounds like something my dog would do! I might bung my faulty PS2 on if they sell might aswell get rid of it! I have a bid on my Skechers and watchers on the Next dress which is good. If I stopped buying bloody birth/marriage/death certs for my ancestry I might actually be better off

Dog-Free to good home! Likes cuddly toys and things that squeak. Very fast runner! Likes to steal food off plates. Any takers?

I have just over £63 in Paypal but i have a feeling that is going to be spent soon by DS1! He is watching lots of phones for me to bid on if they don't go too high. He will owe me any extra i have to pay abouve the £43 he has.

Aims Yeah i have stuff everywhere too. Had to shove some in the cupboard because i have 8 of DD1's friends coming Saturday for her birthday party!

Tortoise · 11/05/2009 18:24

Aims I think the skirt will fit DD1. Might be a little long but she will grow into it lol! I don't normally bid until the end though!

Thanks tortoise - have said I'll refund his paypal payment to me so hopefully he'll be OK with that.

Now have to decide if I'd be willing to send a laptop to Spain - I've sent cheap things there before. Do they not have ebay in spain I wonder?
[goes off to weigh laptop + calculate cost]

Tortoise · 11/05/2009 19:58

Notcitrus Hope it gets resolved with no problems. I personally wouldn't send anything of value abroad. Or make sure it is sent via the safest postage. Which will probably be expensive.

The silver ones would go nicely with sparkly top and skirt! But i shouldn't be spending money. I am meant to be making money!

Tortoise · 11/05/2009 21:44

yes that is one way of looking at it! But if i don't make some real money, we won't get a holiday this summer. And i promised last year and failed. Don't want to let kids down again.

SNOWBall4girlz · 11/05/2009 21:45

I know I go dd2 a pair of sandals I am now watching the same shoes in dd3 and dd4 's size will cost me bomb lol
does not feel like real money if it straight from paypal

TheOtherMaryPoppinsDiets · 11/05/2009 22:08

Gah don't you just hate going to list something (finally!!) and you notice a mark on it so have to put it through the wash again

Have listed a few more things including GHDs, PS2, Bug carseat adaptors, ring sling.

Tortoise · 11/05/2009 22:15

TOMP Yes i hate that!

I am worrying about lack of watchers on stuff ending tomorrow.
After reading shoes thread i am going to look for manky shoes from charity shop to sell!!

Aims I have items ending tonight too. Most don't even have 1 watcher!
Can you put a tape measure/ruler inside the shoe and get the measurement that way? Or just measure the sole. That should be pretty much the same as insole.
