Any e-bay addicts out there?

[louisse28]

I just love e-bay and cannot resist the lull of a good bargain for my toddler. I got a Next coat today for him for only a £1, and was so excited as the clock counted down to that "winning bidder". Am I sad or are there other like minded mums out there?

I'm a confessed addict too. Feedback is only 114 but I have loads to sell at the moment to raise cash for the house move.

Well I bought loads of stuff for our holiday to the Maldives but now we aren't going so I've resold it all, actually made more than I paid for it all!

TIBS - experience ebayers say it's best to get used to the system by buying first, then take the plunge and sell. Not everyone buys/sells by Paypal and it's up to you the seller what you'll accept. Transactions take longer if you're dealing with cheques (obviously you have to wait for them to clear before despatching) but many people do.

If you have a lot of stuff to sell you can dowload ebay's Turbolister tool, so that you can prepare a batch of items for auction and post them up in one go. Makes it easier for multiple sales. And watch out for free listing days too, which helps to save a bit of cash.
