I'm not sure whether it's a bit early in the year for ebaying but I still have mountains of stuff to get rid of!!. Most of the over 99p stuff I had has sold but there is still a lot of things here that might be of interest to others.

After feeling a bit fed of ebay before Christmas I seem to have recovered a bit of enthusiasm for it again after receiving some lovely feedback on items that I didn't expect (I need to have more confidence in what I'm selling!!).

Anyone else want to join me?

MJ, good point I presumed as I selected girl in the other oprion it would filter! I will try and change. Thanks

Oh sorry about that Tortoise but thanks for looking anyway. I have a rain coat (well, proper hiking cagoule actually) which I haven't listed as it has got muddy stains ingrained in the fabric at the back which I can't get out. Most annoying as it is an extremely expensive coat in excellent condition otherwise. Grrr @ dd sliding down hillsides on her backside!

Dumbledore Mud is a nightmare to get out. Mine love to get muddy when we walk the dog! Sure your stuff will sell well. Lots of lovely items. And reasonable postage which does make a change on Ebay.

Ooops! Thought that message hadn't posted!

Dumbledoresgirl · 31/03/2010 13:03

Yes, I hope lots will sell. I have plenty of watchers - one item has 13 which I think is a record for me - but no bids yet. I wish I could stop checking for bids.

Dumbledoresgirl · 31/03/2010 13:04

oops, meant that the item with 13 watchers has no bids yet, not that I had no bids for anything. I am going to make a grand total of £5 so far

coolkat · 31/03/2010 19:33

Listed lots more now! and amended my others to say girls. I have that much baby stuff to get rid of all immaculate as I really check stuff before I list it. I am trialing put in buy it nows as I just want to get rid of it all!

hello again! I haven't had time to Ebay recently but MrNC noticed the free listing day 10 days ago and relisted all the stuff that hadn't sold. Couple items have gone for £10 after postage so that gets me to about £235 for Easter... have a bunch of watchers on a DVD this time which is good.

(hits refresh again as all items ending in next couple hours...)

Here are my current items. We've had quite a good week for sales this week. The paypal balance is currently sitting at £180!! Really hoping to hit the £250 mark for Monday.

Hi Mj

Yes would combine, I try to keep postage low.

ButterPie · 05/04/2010 09:04

I've sold £50.30 worth of stuff up to now Going to stick a load of stuff on there on Thursday on a 10 day auction, hopefully should be looking at making a bit more than that.

It's so exciting!

coolkat · 05/04/2010 09:08

Mines got lots of watchers but few bids bit disheartening!

ElizabethWakefield · 06/04/2010 20:52

Looks like you are all doing well

I have just added 28 items tonight here they are here so hoping to make a bit on them!!

Tortoise if you are still after a girl's jacket I have 2 listed there, although neither are waterproof so might not be what you are after, but thought I would mention anyway

ElizabethWakefield · 06/04/2010 20:53

1 bid and 3 watchers in the time it took to type the above out, woohooo

SNOWBall4girlz · 07/04/2010 13:09

put a couple more things up but have lots to add lol

[[http://shop.ebay.co.uk/izzybelle159/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p4340 my stuff

SNOWBall4girlz · 07/04/2010 13:09

ElizabethWakefield · 08/04/2010 23:26

Good luck snowball.

I have bids of £10.49 on my christening outfit with over 4 days to go. Really pleased

Tortoise · 11/04/2010 13:53

Back from hols. Guess i had better get back into selling lol.

EW I like the Gap jacket you have listed. Will keep an eye on it.

I we keeping the same thread or starting a 'make £??? by summer hols' thread?!

ElizabethWakefield · 12/04/2010 12:28

Hope you had a nice holiday

I sold a few things last night, but none of them went for that much.

Am really pleased that the christening outfit i have listed is at £28, with over a day to go

Good luck with the jacket, it has a few watchers, but no bids so far.

Another thread might be a good plan, I need all the monet for summer I can get!!!

ElizabethWakefield · 13/04/2010 16:41

I have a few things ending tonight, all but 1 have bids, so I am quite pleased.

This thread has gone very quiet

Tortoise · 13/04/2010 18:48

That's good EW. I am still keeping an eye on Gap coat.

I have sorted a pile of bits to list this week. Ironed and ready to photograph!

Tortoise · 13/04/2010 20:29

Got outbid . Price suddenly shot up too high. Great price though.
