    I've got loads more to get listed but I've decided to go to a maximum of 10 listings a week! This is only due to my work load and the fact I sometimes have to go away with work so I'm unable to get the parcels to the post office quick enough! Tend to end mine on a Sunday or Monday evening so that gives me plenty of time to get to the Post Office during the week.

    Ohhh - Im sat here twiddling my thumbs.

    I am still waiting for the paypal verification to go through - supposidly they transferred money into my bank account, and I have to then contact paypal with those accounts to verify myself...that was on the 17th and the money isnt yet in my account - all the details are correct...

    Is it a scam, has anyone else been asked to do this?

    I should have added,that paypal has my credit card details, whhich is what I use to pay.

    Why do they also need my bank account details?

    everyone who verifies their paypal account has to do this. It does take a while to come through, think i waited a week. and the valued are really low like 25p. they need your bank account details for when you take money out of your paypal account.

    They did it to me too on all my accounts, they just seem to like to have as much info about you as possible!

    Sold a toy car last night for £25, one that I'd got free from collecting stickers off the other cars packets. Still no bids on my other 2 auctions but 10 watchers on one. Quite a few things shifted today from my other Ebay account which is always nice!

    evening all
    had a busy ebay day on things ending so i have not yet worked out where i am moneywise.

    yes i had to verify my account too. i also had to verify by phone with a code when i got to 2000usd in 12 months.

    i have one buyer that is no longer registered and therefore what do i do with the item? relist? i have tried to contact but no reply???

    happy ebaying and listing to all!

    Ebay should give you a fee credit asap - you should be able to relist it or offer the second highest bidder the item if it was a decent price

    I had to do the bank and phone verification too

    Hi guys since the forum is going to be closed, i just wanted to stop in and wish you all a mega listing weekend!

    I have been really slack this week - really annoyed with myself but it's been an emotional struggle so i'm not going to feel too bad about it! I am definately going to get some more things on over the weekend - i am aiming small at the moment but i want at least 10 Brand new listings done - anything else is a bonus! I should be able to manage that since i managed around 40 last saturday, but don't want to over commit as if i get lots of sales i will have to package all that etc too

    To all the new guys make sure you list this weekend and run for 7 days as these will finish right near pay day and things always sell better near payday!

    Don't delay do it today!
