    knew this would happen!!, i hope it would be later, rather than sooner.

    Its to cancel out the 99p listing:mad:

    so that they can make more money.

    It really doesn't make any sense to me, how do we as sellers make money.:confused:

    definately not on anything listed for 99p.

    well, i guess this is definatley the kick up the backside we all need:rotfl:

    well i guess amazon is looking more and more appealing now:rolleyes:
  • I have been stalking this thread for a while. I have been using Ebay for a while but it has been really hit and miss for a while. I have loads of books and cd's so i thought i would dabble with Amazon and was amazed how easy it is. I also like the bit where it gives you an option for how much to list. Wish i had done this ages ago as some of my DVD's are listed for a lot more than the 50p i was selling them for on Ebay. The only thing i cant get my head round is how to sell house items i.e. like a lamp or candle holder, there doesnt seem to be a function to give it your own name - any advice would be welcome.

    Thanks a lot guys for your inspiration xx

    I suppose this will push me to start listing (what's left of) my accessories this weekend.

    ^I don't think clothes are included, just accessories and clothing/shoe CARE items (I'd guess shoe polish, laces, dye, etc). At least that's how I read it :S

    Just wondering if anyone knows - can I pay an uncrossed postal order into my bank account? Or can I only get the money of the PO counter? xx

    completelylost you can cash it at the post office for instant money, if its a large amount i would take some sort of id.
    crossed postal orders are only for bank accounts.


    So clothes are safe?
    i guess i better list all my other tat 1st:D

    I've had a good day today. Listed a Wii game on Amazon last night and it sold this morning. Got a few things listed on Ebay but no watchers or bidders as yet.

    Thanks Floxxie.
    I wouldn't go to bed last night until I had listed my 5!
    Tonight struggling, only done 2, running out of things to sell. Going to have to have a good sort out tomorrow. Find some more stuff.
    On the upside made £42 from stuff that has ended this evening!!
