I think it is a Mumsnetter who has bought it. I hope they like it

mogs0 · 15/11/2009 20:58

Just uploaded this lot! Got one watcher on the Jaeger items already!!

Tortoise · 15/11/2009 22:09

Like the boots Mogs. Bet they do well. (Better than my crappy boots lol!) I have a ready bed listed too!

Wow, you've been busy!! I can't face listing any more tonight and I've only done 8 items. I did take all the wooden car/garage stuff downstairs to photograph but got distracted and have now brought it all back up again. I might get on to that Tues or Weds when I'm not working.

I've tried the boots on again tonight and think I will keep them if I don't get any bids this time. I do like them but if things don't get worn used regularly in this house they go mouldy. I've just looked at my baby back carrier and it's totally covered .

IdrisTheDragon · 15/11/2009 23:30

That is an impressive amount of listing tortoise .

Have discovered a vintage fashion wheel and see they seem to sell OK so that will be my next one to get listed. And will probably relist what hasn't sold.

No idea where the digital photo frames went - am worried they were "tidied away" too vigorously.

Tortoise · 16/11/2009 10:49

Mogs Most of it was done on Turbo lister which made it much easier to list. I would never have got that many done in an evening. Some have 1 watcher already which is great. Let's hope the bids roll in.

Even using TL you did well!!

I've posted out my items that have been paid for just waiting for 2 more payments then that lot are done.

Tortoise · 16/11/2009 13:52

Thanks. Now have to hope they sell. Although that would be a nightmare trip to the PO lol!

Ha, ha! I know. I took 5 items there this morning and there was a huge queue behind me by the time I was finished!! I must start filling in POP at home before I take parcels, will save a bit of time at the counter.

Tortoise · 16/11/2009 17:25

I now have 2 BN V-smile games to list.
No more bids yet but a few more watchers.

Just uploaded a few more items. I'm getting into it again this evening but I find if I get distracted even for 5 mins I lose all motivation - which is a pita because I have mountains of stuff left to put on!!

Ds just caught me ebaying his pjs and was a bit horrified to see 3 pairs on there because he hasn't had his new ones yet - I must get new ones in the wash asap!

Tortoise · 16/11/2009 20:06

Cute PJs. You are brave putting trunki on for 99p. Bet they sell well though.

OP posts:
mogs0 · 16/11/2009 20:14

The scratches on the bottom stopped me from starting it any higher! TBH it's been on top of my wardrobe for so long that I wouldn't be too disappointed if it went for 99p (though a couple of £s more would be nice!). I love the pjs too but they look ridiculously small on ds now he's 7 - and managed to get some new ones at a discount price!

I've just made a list of another 25 items I want to upload tonight or tomorrow. I'd better go and put ds to bed before he thinks I've been abducted by my pc!!

mogs0 · 16/11/2009 20:32

Ooh, I've got 4 watchers on new listings already!

Tortoise · 16/11/2009 20:39

I went to re-list about 12 items from unsold and clicked delete by mistake. Now i will have to totally re-do those listing.

Listed 2 new V.smile games. Both the same £7 BIN free postage. Fingers crossed.

OP posts:
mogs0 · 16/11/2009 20:42

Oh how annoying! Can you find them on Turbo Lister?

Tortoise · 16/11/2009 21:15

No these ones weren't done on Turbo lister. Will have to do them again at some point! Not now though!

Have 4 items with a bid now.

Divatheshopaholic · 17/11/2009 11:44

I have only one bid, though

Tortoise · 17/11/2009 11:47

Hey Diva - that is brilliant. I have 8 things on - couple have watcher and 2 have bids - am so pleased with myself

Divatheshopaholic · 17/11/2009 14:46

Thanks, i have missed free lsitings all through summer and early autumn as i was always away or not ready.
I pleased i have done them all up on ebay this sunday, fingers crossed some will sell.
Well done you two having bids already.

NickNemo · 17/11/2009 15:21

Urg, I have 7 watcher and no bidders on the harness and reins set. Come on you watchers!!

Will be listing a super cute Junior J red and white cherry and flower print fleece lined mac later tonight, hopefully I'll make some money on that.

IdrisTheDragon · 17/11/2009 18:26

I have run out of things to list at the moment. Will have to find something!

mogs0 · 17/11/2009 18:34

Idris - how far away are you? I've got loads of stuff you can list!!!
