    Fingers crossed for the place on the degree course, I know when DD applied for her place it was nerve wracking for her and us until she got her letter.
    Is it much the same selling on Amazon as Ebay and are there fees when you sell and to list?

    I keep checking UCAS online....getting slightly obsessed:o

    As for Amazon...it's very easy, you don't need to take any pictures, but there are no fees to pay unless your item sells. They give you an amount towards postage when the item sells, but take rather a steep amount in fees (you do get told how much fees will be before you list, so can decide if it's worth it!)

    But you can list stuff and it stays for 90 days listed I think, so worth a try:p
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

    DD has just told me that UCAS can be really slow, thanks for the info on Amazon I will look into it further. My buyer collected her 2 items earlier and she loved the body lotion, she has just contacted me and asked for the 3 other body lotions that I had listed and will be paying cash again so no fees.
