    Ooh mrs you are making me jealous. It seems like a very long time ago since I came back from my holiday even though its only 2 months ago. They are having a beach party this weekend at the local bar we spent a lot of evenings in...wish I was there with a big jug of sangria :)

    right then down to business and making money.... i have watchers already and 1 item will sell.

    please forgive me discussing a rather delicate subject but need advice. someone chatted to me recently about ebay and said about what sells well. they mentioned old worn shoes and underwear / nightware.... sounds grim to me but can anyone tell me what they know on this seedy subject? is there money it in - im too ashamed to even believe i am asking you all this but i feel you will tell me honestly what the deal is...

    thanks

    I have never sold anything myself but have seen others post about it and had a look at some of the items. I have also had some nutter email about a pair of my shoes before asking if I could send him some pictures of me wearing them...urm no!

    It does seem to sell well, although I am not entirely sure why. Some sort of fetish I guess

    :embarasse:embarasse:embarassethanks jesarose... i have tried to sort of work it out... seems there is something about shoes with the 'shape of toes' and smell which makes them interesting to um 'people'. i am still looking for a definiative answer re: undewear [gosh why am i asking this? - its beyond me!]:embarasse:embarasse:embarasse

    mmm, wll I have listed two bra's. They were seconds from the factory shop never worn and the queues were to long for me to wait to try them on ,but no tags, they sell in the shops for over £30.00 new, and I have started them on at 99p, and no interest yet so will wait and see. Mind you the size might not be the most popular 38FF:oand 36E:o

    ah jaynemaria i have sold brand new with tags/wiout tags... but i fear that it not the sort of items i am talking about... perhaps i best off leaving this one alone.

    We had a discussion about this many months ago. I think Soolin popped on and suggested that we didn't get involved in such things in case our eBay account was closed; can't remember why as I found it very unsavoury :rotfl:I would rather throw an item away than consider what the buyer is doing with it!

    Busy placing some bets tonight and (apparently) studying so no further forward in getting ready for Sunday.

    Hello! Didn't know this thread was here! I list on Amazon Marketplace generally, and am trying to thin out my 'stuff' collection, which mainly consists of CDs I never listen to, books I've read or won't ever read, dvds I won't watch again, and games I don't play!

    I do have a few bits to ebay as well and going to try and list some stuff this weekend.

    General question, what time do people set their Ebay auctions to end for - ie when have they found they get the most bidders? I used to set mine to end for 8pm Mon-Thurs, then couldn't find out how to do it on Ebay anymore, but reading on here using Turbolister will do that for me?
