    Morning all:D

    I have decided to list most of my books on greenmet and just my really old ones which might be worth (hopefully) a bit more on amazon thanks to the advice given on here, I am going to start this evening and also try out the turbo lister on ebay ready for the weekend:beer: How long does it take to download the application?

    Turbolister shouldn't take too long to download - will depend on your PC and internet connection.

    Love your signature - yep I think a lot of us are in hell at the moment with this challenge and agree with the others, my whole house is a bomb site. Thought it might motivate me to get a move on but I have sat here wondering where I could hide it all before anybody visits.

    I'm going to be listing magazines next week. I was going to add a second category to list but I think I shall just concentrate on magazines as I have over 70 ranging from cookery to heavy metal. Am also going to use my other account to list these so I don't get confuse people with my eclectic range of items.

    Will pop in over the weekend to see how everybody is doing but just to focus you....if you started the challenge at the same time as I did (11th October), by Sunday you should have:

    90 items listed if doing 10 per day
    45 items listed if doing 5 per day
    27 items if doing 3 per day
    9 items if doing 1 per day

    Easy! :rotfl:

  • Thanks Floxxie! It actually relates more to my drinking habits though:beer: :rotfl:

    We have broadband connection so hope it will be fast!

    I don't have any mags to sell unfortunately - what is second category?

    We wanted to let you know that we're aware that 'Title and Description Search' is currently not displaying all items correctly. We've identified the steps we need to take to resolve the issue, and expect to have fixed it by the end of next week. We realise how frustrating this is, and will try to resolve the issue as soon as possible.
    If you're a seller and the item you're selling is not displaying in a Title and Description Search, please contact Customer Support. They'll refund your fees once they've confirmed that your item is affected.
    If you're a buyer, these items are always available by using Title-only Search (which can be run by unticking the 'Include title and description' box when running a search). You may also consider temporarily changing any 'Favourite Searches' you have set up to search by Title only.
    Regards,
    The eBay Team

  • I have 22 items listed, did have 24 but sold 2 children's DVD's.

    Was wondering, this free listing weekend, what length are you doing your auctions for? I will probably do 5, 7 and 10 day listings, have so much I want to do but have all 3 kids here today and one is ill and off Nursery so will have to get to it tonight when they are all in bed.

    Had a quick look for my magazines but couldn't find them so will have to have a hunt later on, I wanted to get them done for this weekend but can't remember where I put them.

    I shall be looking around Ebay this weekend to see if I can find some bargains as people are always getting my items cheap, need a few stocking fillers for Xmas.

  • Just been down our Annex and have found the magazines - yippee! Hope I have the energy tonight to take pictures and get them uploaded to Turbolister. I also found a lot of cuddly toys, some Clarks slippers, a toilet trainer seat (new) and some other baby bits, will do all 99p starts and see how it goes.

    Want to get loads listed this weekend as I've just had my next hospital appointment changed from 27 November to 28 October, am so pleased, had to have an MRI scan yesterday to check if there are any gall stones in my Liver before I have my gall bladder out so will need to make as much money in the next month or so to pay my debts while I'm out of action for a couple of weeks.

    Bring the weekend on (shame bf is working both days as I could of got lots more done)
