Am a bit dumb about these things but can someone tell me what turolister/ auctiva do? i want to be able to do all my listings over the week and put them all on at the right times. i find i can only do about 5 items a night and would like to try and put a lot on each day. sorry for being stupid.

    The rain finally stopped so OH has saved my sanitiy by taking the little ones out for the day.

    I can tidy the dining room and ebay:T

    17 items now listed - all at 99p start. One has a bidder and watches on another 10 items.

    The paralympics is on the TV - recently my 6 year old with severe quad Cerebral palsy got his grade 8 gymnastics badge - he can do the moves if he is supported by 2 gym coaches as he cannot stand. Proud mummy moment!!:j

    Can I ask how long you normally put 99p items on for. Im not sure if 7 days best as 10 maybe too long?? Only sold 2 things so far and have one listed so have no clue if 7 days the norm or not.

  • Hi everyone

    @mrscmr and @floxxie Thanks for your warm welcome and helpful advice.

    Just question wondered if you could help me with...have any of your guys ever posted to Poland? I read on a couple of forums that people have had probs sending stuff to Spain and Italy.

    Had a question from a potential buyer yesterday about sending some perfume to Germany but today a buyer from Poland would like to buy my hairclip!

    Thanks guys hope you've all enjoyed your BH :cool: x

    @sunshine - i list most things at 99p and then for 10 days. im only just sort of getting bolder and listing things for bit more. i have no idea if thats right or not - guess i will find out!
    @shakethatmoneymaker - i have sent things to germany, finland, serbia, maderia even usa - and i often get buyers who are abroad - have not yet had a problem but i know people have plenty of times.

    I list for 10 days too to get the most for the listing fee (if there is one). I also try to list on a thursday that way it's up for 2 weekends and ends on a sunday

    Be sure if you don't want to sell your item to certain countries to set your seller preferences so that no-one can bid from countries you don't want to ship to.
