I think you can only add a BIN if there's no bids yet. You go into 'revise listing' and there'll be an option. Think its a few pence to do it, not done for ages. But, most people who want it want you to sell outside of ebay so they can get it quick (in which case you can take a chance, then withdarw the listing, even tho its slightly aganisny the rules!). Al;so, if someone wants a BIN, its either cos in a hurry, or cos they want it really badly, in whih case they'll bis high anyway, so you mihgt be worth waiting. They'll offer you a lower BIN than willing to pay of course.

What is it?

CantSleepWontSleep · 16/10/2009 12:06

Just a boden top of dd's. No bids yet - only went on at 10pm last night, and they had asked by the time I got up this morning. I'll set a level that I'd be happy with, and if they don't want to pay that then I'm happy to let the auction run.
Have sold a few bits lately - was pleased to get just over a tenner for a pair of dd's old clarks boots.

I've got a few things to put on, but just not got round to it. Unless any of you lot are in the market for a scuttlebug/thunderbirds duvet cover/ xl Zara velvet culottes

EachPeachPearMum · 16/10/2009 23:05

No baby today then Flame? Sleep well

csws- did she go for your price then?

Jas · 16/10/2009 23:14

Where have you put the bookcase mrm??

mustrunmore · 17/10/2009 08:25

Front room, corner diagonally opposite door. Terracotta sofa next to it, leather sofa at right angles to it under the back window. Bookcase opposite it in the gap between back window and chgimney breast. Treadmill under front window. PC cupboard on left as you walk in through door.

Thankyou What happened to the other exercisey thing? (Can't even remember what it is called)

Ok so MRM doesn't have an elephant, but does have a bookcase.
Flame is lumpy still and pissed off re both that and her dh's possible job going tits up
CSWS is making an ebay killing
Jas's dh is working all hours for reasonable dosh
Have I missed anything?

We have a new shop here and this site has icons since I last was on here! we opened today and all was good, dh was over there, whilst I helped out at Ripley, with the girls in tow too, who behaved themselves all day!! and played games/ds's nicely, whilst I oversaw the proceedings We're all working in the new store tomorrow, so fingers x'd that they're as good then too....am leaving them with dh for the last hour, as gran in in hosptial just down road, so am legging it to see her, though apparently she's not recognised anyone for the last two days, so will have to see if she's lucid or not

CantSleepWontSleep · 17/10/2009 21:07

Haven't heard back, so I guess not EPPM!

Poor ds is ill. Rash, threw up everything this morning (inc stomach lining) and running a temp. Am assuming non-specific viral and doping him up with calpol and nurofen. Poor thing, and poor dd, because it's impacting on people wanting to play, naturally.

Congrats on new shop Friz.

Frizbe · 17/10/2009 21:09

Thanks CSWS, but oh poor ds give him a big hug from me, poor little mite....hope he's over it soon.

Phoenix · 17/10/2009 22:17

For new shop Friz.

For dp's work Jas. What a long day but i guess when he's getting paid by the hour it's not bad and gives you some peace from him

Flame - I daren't actually ask the question (especially as you're now overdue)but you know what i mean

for poorly ds csws.

We've all been full of cold here. Noah has had a cough and coughing alot after feeds and bringing all his milk back up so i was a bit worried about him getting dehydrated but the gp assured me he was fine and that is a normal reaction for babies with that type of cough because they can't cough the mucus crap up like we can. Fingers crossed he's getting over it though cos we've had no been sick today although still a slight cough.

EachPeachPearMum · 17/10/2009 23:31

Frizbe- many congratulations! Hope you're not too shattered my dear.

csws- hope ds is better soon poor boy People don't want to catch it? strange folk!

Phoenix- love the new photos- ds2 is a v smiley baby! Hope he is better soon though... I remember ds having yellowy mucus for ages after he was born- more with a cs than vb, cos it doesn't get squeezed out of them.

mrm- how many times a year do you rearrange your furniture? Seem to do it every few months!

Flame- big hugs (though of course, not if you don't want to be touched atm!)

only move furniture when is good reason, cheeky . Had to move a little bit to get 2metre bookcase in and before that, we moved cos exlodger brought us huge tv which I thought wouldnt go in place of old tv, but as it happens, it did fit, so we moved stuff back again! Criss trainer got freecycled ages ago Jas, cos it was a crap one. When I said I'd have it off Dad I thought it was a bit better than it was.

Frizbe · 18/10/2009 19:42

{{{{Hugs}}}} to Flame, I reckon it sounds like its on its way out though it'll be really quick when it happens this time eh! Shower curtains at the ready!

Xmas Grin at MRM

Thanks EPPM and Phoenix, am tired, but happy! dh has just crawled off to bed with 'man something' has sore throat and is feeling pap, I guess he's deflating now that its open, he's not good with stress.

I seem to have a black lap warmer, that's drooling on my hand as I type

CSWS how's ds today? better I hope?

I think I'm off to attempt to finish a book, wish me luck!

FlameIsOnDay2 · 18/10/2009 21:00

dum de dum...

mustrunmore · 19/10/2009 09:09

Friz, whats the name of the warmup track in combat 41? Its driving me insane! Is it a remix of Rhianna or something?

I had a dream last night about doing the ballroom blitz track over and over [

Wish Flame would just get a wriggle on. Anyone know if there's a small (ie cheap[[) baby thing she actually needs , rather than me getting some clothing item cos its cute? I cant imagine there's anything she hasnt got baby-wise by now!

damewashalot · 19/10/2009 09:36

Hello!

I realise I have been absent for ages but flame in labour has dragged me back

Did I miss anything exciting?

Need to go collapse for a bit now as have done school run for first time in a week and am knackered! (been on tamiflu since thurs having felt rubbish since last monday)

EachPeachPearMum · 19/10/2009 14:06

Hi Dame! Sorry to hear you're unwell (maybe I should check fb properly!)

csws- I have just found one of your old threads v useful
Sadly it was your flour weevil thread

I am not actually making carrot cake this afternoon after all

Come on with that baby Flame!

CantSleepWontSleep · 19/10/2009 14:39

lol EPPM - sorry about the cake!

Dunno re flame, but presumably that question was aimed more at her anyway .

Hellooooo dame! Can't remember when you were last on, so not sure what you've missed!
You know that Phoenix had a second boy don't you?
And friz has just opened a second shop.

damewashalot · 19/10/2009 14:49

I know what's happening with those I found on FB, well when I take things in that is!
I have lurked now and then but life is hectic.
