    Well done TC :j I've done photos of more stuff to be listed this week on Ebay - will aim to list at least 2 per day for the next 2 weeks.

    Thanks Pam, you're doing really well, AT least 2 items a day for 2 weeks sounds good to me. Today I have relisted 3 things and listed 1 new item.

    8 items photographed properly today, all clothes so I'm not expecting too much. Blooming pain getting them to look good on a plastic dummy-hanger thing I tell you!

    Once I'd done all that and got some se stuff done I didn't have the energy to list them or get anything written up in turbolister - not working second job tomorrow though so should have lots of extra time to get some listings up ready for July :)

    Getting the boyfriend to phone up in the morning and find out how much they'll give me for my car too, fingers crossed.

    I can relate to that, I have a right job getting the clothes to hang right on the plastic dummy I use, it's one of those with no back, so I have to peg the clothes at the back to make them fit!!!

    I'm new to this too - it gets addictive thinking up ways of reaching the target. I'll be over the moon if I make £300 this month. Welcome :j

    Hi everyone,
    I'm in again for July - £310.

    I managed to £426.95/£300 in June! Very pleased with that and I think it's only this thread that's inspiring me to keep plugging away. :)
