    Lol. Nevermind. Thanks for the heads up. Guess that I am running out of time to get my carp listed and sold!

    Hope you're ok PP. Will pop over to your thread when I have a bit of time and I don't feel so poorly - who's been passing the bug through the thread? :rotfl:

    Morning guys,
    Update with broken item, I sent a message & posted the cheque back & I have heard nothing !!!! Feeling a little scared to list !!! (dh says I am being silly!!!)
    Don't think I will get rid of all my stuff.... hope they don't bring in that rule about certified sellers, are they trying to get rid of the personal sellers & move towards business users only????
    Carry on sorting out ....better get listing quick..

    Thanks for the heads up PandaPaws - Ebay seem to be trying really hard to destroy the relationship they have we "us", the people who made their site what it is. When they started up those big sellers were not using the site but normal sellers were from the start. Its ridiculous that they keep bringing in stupid changes. I am meeting with some of their team in July through work and have some questions I want to ask them

    Woke up this morning and decided to spend the day listing - not feeling quite so motivated now :(
    Not been here in years! Hi everyone. Make £10 a day challenge = £78.45/155

    wow, thanks for the info pandapaws,
    i am interested to know what 'certified' REALLY means
    what are they gonna do, just kick all us little sellers off at a set date?

    i am sure they are making a good profit, even in this recession

    so why do they keep changing things?

    Are ebay that greedy? or just stupid?:confused:

    I only ever list at the very bottom price I am prepared to take maggiem ................

    ...............Check what your item weights when packaged up against the postal weights on the Royal Mail site to make sure you do not underquote on the postage. I usually add 80p/£1 for packing materials too on top of the actual postage price


    Thats exactly what i do, that extra, pays me for the time it takes to pack up items, also trip to post office, the waiting time etc...:D

    thanks for the info panda! that sounds like a dreadful plan! stupid ebay! Up to 25 items listed now, going to spend the afternoon uploading items onto turbo lister.

    Does anyone use ebid? I think a lot of people are moving over there since ebay is changing so much. Just wondering if anyone has had any success with it?

    Haven't popped in for a while... but I relisted 5 items last week (things that I've relisted a zillion times before) and all 5 have bids on them :D

    I'm gonna aim to list another 5 things tonight, as I have gotten rid of all my relisted rubbish now :j:j:j
