    Hi Floxxie - I would buy another handlebar off ebay and sell the buggy as perfect. Dont sell the raincover with the buggy, but list it seperately when the buggy is sold. ...oh, and then sell the knicked handlebar seperately too!!

    p&t buyers seem to be quite picky, but there doesnt seem to be much logic at times...one of the little wind / rain shields at the back which no one ever uses went for £22 today on ebay - no idea why - there is even a b-i-n for about £4.

    I will list a pair of spare knuckles and a spare front and reat wheel seperately.

    Should I give my buyer the little windshield?:confused:

    I think that I have had about 2500 trips with my p&t:T:T

    Thanks LHB, that's a great idea. I was wondering about that little windshield, couldn't work out what it is for. While I buy a new handlebar, I shall continue listing.
    Damn have already forgotten how many I have listed...hold on...yep, 84 active listings! (but only 3 with bids at the moment)

    Right will go and find handlebar to buy and get on with some more preparation of listings. Not going to put them on tonight but will get them ready for tomorrow night. Hope lots of things sell.

    :rotfl:BB, I've been listening to club classics and Motown - it's given me a ringing head but I have a good pile of CDs which I shall pop onto Amazon tomorrow morning.

    The amount you have listed is fantastic. Hope to catch up with you soon!

    I can't believe the amount of items some of you have listed. I thought I was doing well with 44 items on lol.

    I have a pile of kids books and some clothes to go through tomorrow and sort / iron and choose between the ebay / charity bag.

    Tonight I have packaged up five items from this weekend that sold ready to post tomorrow, but am running out of packing items now so need to get some more :(

    Hey i guess everyone is all ebayed out :confused:

    I have had alot of items selling over the past day which makes a change for me its usually just stuff at 50p to 99p

    This month so far i have sold 35 items for a grand total of £74.01 :j this is before all the fees have been taken off so i know it wont be as much as that but it gives me an indication of how much stuff i've sold.

    Just need to get some new stuff listed :rolleyes:

    morning ladies
    i have a question... you all seem very 'up' on pushchairs etc. i have 2 in the garage - one maclaren stroller which is fine but bit grubby and the other is a Hauck Jeep which is def grubby but i was wondering if i should just try to sell the chassis of the jeep pushchair? it cost me about 300 and is 3 wheeler trendy type... what do you think?
    i took 10 parcels to post office yesterday, have only 2 bids on my 26 items and today I WILLL LIST!!! yes i will!!!
    have a great day!

    Hi mrscmr,

    why not try and clean them both up and see how they come out, you may be surprised by the jeep..

    I would try them on your local friday ad - the buyers can be less picky and you have no courier charge, and no selling fees:jif under £53.

    I bought an older maclaren on friday ad - a great buy!!

    2nd question of the day...
    regarding cd/dvd or video listings. suppose i sold one of them but there was a prob with the cd that i didnt know about? like it skipped or the dvd stuck. what should i do? im a bit scared of listing older ones just incase there is something wrong and i dont want to watch or listen to them!
    advice welcome!

    I list all DVDs and CDs without checking they play ok. If it looks very scratched only then do I check it plays ok. If there is ever a problem once the buyer has it I give them a full refund

    The older ones tend to fetch more money I have found - especially when it comes to CDs
