eBay/ebid 10 a day challenge - any joiners?
Comments

Hey guys. I made a tenner last week. I was trying to save my ebay profit but ended up buying other stuff for the baba with it - oh well, at least it hasn't cost me anything. Just listed 7 items this morning and have 10 items ending tomorrow, with only 5.00 made on them so far.
I am scratching my head as to what to list next, I think I will end up with an empty house soon. Whats the most weirdest thing you have sold?
A relica sword for re enactments, I can't say exactly what it was as the swear filter will remove it, but it was a half 'person with no named father' sword.
I have also bought a set of armour and some chain mail that almost gave the postman who delivered it a hernia.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Wow buddiebabe, that is amazing going. I dunno where you find the motivation!
I didn't sell any of my ebay tat yesterday... nor did I list anything. I did sell a couple of bits on other sites though, so I guess that makes up for it. Sort of :S0 -
Just spending a boring afternoon wrap up items to send tomorrow bout 21 and do the postage via paypal as it so much easy then going to the post office in town plus i dont drive and it 3 miles away from home.
Wow 296 items buddiebabe!!! Everyone doing great!!!! Well done!E-bay saving pot = £0.000 -
well ihave slowed down due to kids being off school on hols. They definitely get in the way when I am trying to photo stuff!
i have 1 item ending today and have 28 listed with 5 will sell. quite a few watchers and even some bids on my other items which is good. i think bids adds up to about £26.00 at mo.
must must try and list more but its finding the time.
i have to take loads to post office tomorrow but bought some mailing bags last week so that makes it easier as i really hate the packaging process.
in 4.5 weeks i have made 899 pounds which is amazing - less postage and fees but still - thats just the tip of the iceburg... or is it the tip of the 'tip' ha ha. when i think of the good stuff i threw away it makes my blood run cold!
happy ebaying everyone

Hi All
buddiebabe: that's an incredible amount of eBay listings - that's a proper marathon effort!!
Listing are doing well so far, and I had a warrobe rummage and found some more stuff to go on...it really is never-ending....
Made £60 from 5 items of clothing at the weekend, someone bought a primark dress from me for £16 that only cost me £12 originally and then sold a random pair of Topshop denim shorts that I haven't worn in 3 years for £16.50 - so all in all a very profitable bank holiday weekend....
Really is incredible what people will pay though...
Had a girl purchase two items last week, she's a busy seller with 4,000+ feedback, low and behold I look at her listings and the two items I sold to her last week are in her listings - one of the skirts I sold as worn and she's listed it as 'this seasons' and implied it's new.....hmmm.
She bought another two 99p items from me yesterday - but I don't really mind as she bid on another listing and lost the bidding - so essentially she's just driving my prices up
Happy Bank Holiday all xxxxxx
