    Can i join for £10 a day please, i have put loads on amazon and have sold five already. Thats the good bit but i didnt realise amazon take about 80p per item !! The other problem is finding the money for postage !!

    Does anyone who sells with amazon know, if it says standard delivery does that mean it has to be first class ?

    Thanks

    mizmir,
    didnt know you did dog training? whats that entail then? training dogs obviously i know... :rolleyes:
    A friend of mine "dog sits", I love dogs and the idea has occured to me before to do something similar, but to be honest- my dog malts that much that if i had any more dogs in my house it would just be coated in fur! :rotfl:

    Well, try mystery shopping - on saturday they are giving me a £35 budget for a meal for two at a local cafe-bar place - £35 will get us plenty of nosh :D

    hiya

    ive sent two books off for amazon today by 2nd class mainly because i didnt charge enough for the books lol!! dont think that amazon actually say whether it has to be first class or not (they dont seem to send theirs by first as it takes ages for your stuff to arrive if you go for standard delivery with amazon themselves!!!) they just say that you have to dispatch items within two working days:rolleyes:

    hope that helps! oooh and hope i'm not wrong lol!

    I only send my Amazon sales by 2nd class, they don't pay me enough to pay by 1st!! The buyer doesn't expect 1st class (I hope :o ) so I don't give it.

    Hello! Have done a mystery shop today so that's todays £10 sorted out, going slowly at the moment, but I thought that last month at this stage. I've started sorting some stuff out to ebay, though am put off with the seemingly high fees - may dip my toe in the water to see if a profit can be made. A small mystery shop is lined up for tomorrow and then nothing....... yikes!
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!
