floxxie thats brilliant your £20 went for £85 hope you've got another couple stashed away!

mrscmr when do you sleep?

had an absolutely awful weekend only £5 for two items so by the time ebay get their cut and paypal get theirs maybe be something left for me! total sales for november though £125, so cant really complain but i will! am glad went out tonight cos i would have just sat glued to the screen refreshing it hoping that somebody somwhere would bid - at a quiz night for charity raised £380approx for Parkinsons so a good night - even although our team were 3rd last hehehe!

mrscmr - your post office will love you tomorrow, does anyone use Paypal postage? I tried it once but the label didn't come as the pop up blocker was on and haven't risked it since, I thought I had turned it off but not sure. Would be so much easier to use the online postage (mind you our printer is not working at the moment).

I've never printed postage via PayPal but often do directly through the Royal Mail website. You still have to take it to the PO if you want proof of postage but for smaller value items I don't bother

tmd, my DS3 had a very late night last night as he was sick but then he didn't have a sleep today so went to bed at 8pm - bliss, a whole evening without the children being up As it was so unusual I have been relaxing more than doing but there's always tomorrow.

Have just sent an email to my latest buyer (unfortunately I only have the one item skintbint - congrats on the fundraising: a really worthwhile cause) and am hoping that she understood the 'pay on collection' and I don't receive a Paypal payment tomorrow.

Need to add a few hundred items to Amazon over the next few days and will then hit eBay again.

Here's hoping that my latest three buyers (footie woman, 0 feedback and cash buyer) cause me no hassle (wishful thinking perhaps? :rolleyes:)

Floxxie

Yippee, RD package has been delivered. Will put in a claim for delay...

Footie woman hasn't yet paid; maybe she's not going to (here's hoping)

Cash buyer has arranged to collect Wednesday night.

Not sure if I shall get anything listed tonight. Can't remember, have others found that Monday ending is not good?

JesaRose

Sunday and Monday evening endings are the two best in that order according to Ebay themselves. The ebay for charity men told me this so its come from their own mouths

My last payer from last Wednesdays listings has now paid so I will post that tomorrow. Need to do some more listings now though

Floxxie

Thanks JesaRose,

I knew an evening of listing would be too good to be true so instead I have contended with DS1s bed breaking, the fridge leaking (think it is broken) and DS3 throwing up everywhere.

Have a feeling that it is going to cost us a few pounds this month to sort the above out :mad: Had better use the rest of the evening to get some listings done. On a more positive note, two items I listed last night on Amazon have sold....will only be a few pence but better than nothing

Thanks to mrscmr - because of your good advice the other day I have listed 18 magazines - a mixture of xstitch and knitting and managed to add p&p to them!!

Thanks again for the motivation to be more inventive in my listings

Another 10 items listed on Amazon and have just sold one item and been paid for one item on eBay. All very small amounts of money but as long as they are selling, the junk will be gone and I shall be a little less in debt!

Have spoken to eBay about bizarre footie lady who has sent another wierd email (but without payment). Got the response that having looked at her messages they didn't think she was going to pay but it was a legally binding contract so if she did pay I would have to send out and then have her claim it was a fake at which point they would do an investigation.....mmm, I have lots of faith in that :rotfl:
Pointed out that in a court I could argue that this was not a legally binding contract as she is a malicious bidder (and funny how she could decide not to pay without penalty) so he rephrased and stated that it was eBay policy!

Have posted to ask on the GIOL board if these are genuine replica shirts but if anybody does have a Chelsea shirt for this season, could they please tell me where their's was made? (inside top where the size measurements are).

Off to carry on listing on Amazon whilst there is a little bit of light left....

Wow I have had my best ebay selling day ever.

I have sold 17 items and so far of those that have paid I have made £167.05:rotfl:Still about £20 left to be paid, so I have hit my December target in one day:j

Hope everyone else is having a good day

Why did she bid on it if she thinks it is a fake, some people amaze me!!
