    Agree Soolin, it wasn't too many years ago that you had bidding wars over stamps and FDCs but it has become very quiet. (But even with that in mind mine are worth more than £4!) Have decided that I shall list some with a 'family research' theme focusing on the envelope/address rather than the stamp itself.

    In the future I am going to go direct to SG and get a valuation. As I have thousands of other things to sell, they can go back into their boxes until and if the market picks up.

    Thanks for the advice on stamps - im going to leave them in storage - they can sleep for a little longer!

    @sleepless - omg - thats some listing total - it must have worn u out. keep going and think of the good feeling when they all sell!

    have a good day all

    Completlylost get that stuff down to the post office, i always feel better when i've sent a batch of stuff on, as i know i already have the cash. Get them out of there and get on with the next batch!

    For once I *did* get up and take it. I really couldn't have stood having it in my room over the weekend :o

    I have 7 items ending tonight, 4 of which have bids so that's good :D My aim is going to be 5 more listings tonight (can include relsits) - if I do a few at a time, it doesn't feel like such an arduous task!

    Sleepless, 41 listings is great going!

    Hope you are all having a productive weekend x

    lol i'm the same mrscmr! Between work and ebay I post probably 20-30 parcels every week! I now know the woman who works there so well she lets me leave all the parcels in her wee office and she works on them when she has a spare moment through the day! ha!

    8/14 items ending today have bids! :)

    hi everyone!

    i currently have 28 listed, 3 will sell for a grand total of £4.49! 13 items are ending 2day - i would be over the moon if i got 99p for each of them but with only around 5 hours and 41 minutes left i find this highly unlikely lol!!!

    have a few more items to hopefull list 2day!

    thought i would let you know that my mum has sold a USED avon black eyeliner for £16.01!!!!!:rotfl: i think it is discontinued now but even still - it was only £4 to buy new!!! i am defor go to list my eyeliner now!! ha ha!!!
