eBay/ebid 10 a day challenge - any joiners?

Wll I thought I wiould just see how everyone is doing as it seems really quiet at the minute on here.

I had a blip where a load of my listings didnt sell, but things have started to pick up a bit and with a bit of luck I might hit my August total after all:D

I haven't been on here because I have been so busy with all my sales! I'm waiting payment for 4 items but otherwise have withdrawn £140 in the last couple of days...pleased with the money but even more so as I have cleared two large boxes of junk - yippee

Didn't list anything new this weekend as I was home alone with the children but will making sure I make up for it this weekend.

Brilliant Floxxie, I keep adding bits and bobs that I find in the shed or barn and OH says "no one will buy them" and then has a big grin when I say "see, they do sell".

As I said before we are saving for a return trip to Norfolk next year, fantastic place right on the dunes, but because I broke my ankle 10 days before we went didnt get out much this year. Already paid the £100 deposit and are well on the way to the total balance.
so glad I found this thread or we would never have managed it.

Fantastic news jaynemaria. You'll hit your target before you know it!

Hi
I am new on the forum but not new to the world of ebay! Like a lot of people, I like buying but find listing a real fag!

I used to use Auctiva to list stuff as you could use as many photos as you like. Since I last used them they now appear to be charging a lot more! And I keep forgetting my log in which is annoying.

So today with my oh's encouragement I sat and list some things on ebay using turbolister which makes things easier!

I actually quite like doing it when I get into the swing of it. I have given up trying to list cds as everyman and his dog has a copy of Paul Young No Parlez to get rid of!

Listing during the day time and best on a Thursday. Then if you list for 10 days you catch two weekends worth of ebay weekend bidders don't you!!

I've been busy listing too - I have finally found some inspiration to get going too even though I had a neutral for about three days. The person was a noobie though and I explained her confusion and she withdrew her neutral and apologied

I have sorted the spare room and put everything in boxes because I cannot work in a mess and I think that was destroying my willpower. But it looks good now and there are about 12 very large boxes to go

Hey Jesa
Well done.... That really used to havk me off, esp when its a newbie, they use feedback for such stoopid reasons. Glad you resolved it!
I sold something today.. It was the last thing I thought I would sell so Im quite happy!
