Sorry debt obsessed can i ask how old you are? You have done well to pay off 10k, my debt is just a fifth of this and it gets me down! I dont know how you managed to get that much in debt but please dont think im insulting.

No offence taken in any shape or form! I'm 30 years old and have been accumulating this debt since I turned 18 when I first got those credit card offers drop on the doormat! After that it was the same old story of consolidating but still spending etc until about 2 years ago when I couldnt stand it anymore, I stupidly went with a fee charging DMP and realised that nothing was really going down, so this month I took back control and all things going well should be debt free by November 2011.

It is daunting but at the end of the day, its money. I still have my health so I don't let it get me down.

Exactly what a motivator, i need people like you to spur me on. I need to get looking and get going with ebay just now though, got my very first(of very very many i hope) bids

Good luck with it, i'm finding it quite addictive, I'm sure I'll start selling shoes that I actually wear, i'll end up walking around in socks! :rotfl:

Debt is daunting no matter how much it is, but we can only pay what we can pay so no need to worry too much x

Listed another 17 items earlier today bringing my grand total of active items to 87. Still only got a few bids. Loads of watchers though.

Hello and welcome to all the newbies.

Great to see everybody doing so well. It's next week that my ebay marathon starts so then I shall be able to post lots of how I'm doing.

Sad to say I have only just discovered this thread!
I'm going to be bombarding ebay in the coming weeks with the remnants of my room.
My personal goal is to clear my debt by the end of the year!

got 57 listed now, sold 12 in 2 days so got a mega day wrapping and then off to the misery man at the post office!
feels like i have not sold anything much for ages and now have £70 in paypal again so it soon adds up.
made £4.20 profit on a top i got for 50p at a car boot and didnt fit me!

I only relisted 28 yesterday as both my eldest daughters have been ill with temperatures so it hasn't left much time to get stuff uploaded to Turbolister. I'm away Wednesday for a week so have timed everything to finish Sunday/Monday and on Monday night I will relist everything for 10 days so it will finish the day after I come back.

I have 97 on one Personal account, 8 on another personal account and 32 on my Business account.

Well we've still only got 20 things listed and no bids and only a few watches. Hoping it picks up over the weekend. Its not costing to list them, but it is frustrating not seeing them sell.

We've also got a non-paying bidder from the alst lot we sold, its anonying cause its only £1.50 odd, have senta few reminders, but starting non-paying bidder process today.
