Totally fed up with Auctiva as for the third day running it won't let me do lots of listings. I am looking at the turbo lister installation button now, dare I instal it, no one seems quite sure if I can use it as well as Auctiva..shall I click......

I'm having a problem with it as well, as it is not recognising my details which means that my 50 odd listings aren't listed yet.

Am going to add some listings tonight onto Turbolister but I'm being a chicken and will use my other account for these. Let us know Soolin if Auctiva and Turbolister work together or if they mess up your account all together!

mrscmr - very impressive - umm, you can probably tell that I'm on a go slow due to technical problems :rotfl:Yet again waiting for OH to return from work (eta 8.30) so I can have me time aka eBay sentence.

Will pop by later.

OK, well I downloaded Turbo lister and it seems to work fine with Auctiva working in the background. I have some scheduled items due to go on with Auctiva so I'll see if they go upOK.

I forgot how simple Turbo lister is to use, I can do a listing in less than a minute compared to 5 minutes with Auctiva waiting for pages to load etc.

I paid my first lot of 'treats' money into a building society account today so I really need to get some more things loaded. I have a few things ending with bids tonight and about 80 other items still live and I haven't started on the toy cupboard yet.

My OH says I shouldn't say the house is a tip, merely untidy. My eldest is back from uni and that makes 4 adults in the house with another (middle son) due next week. There is stuff everywhere.

Thought I'd better get going on ebay again after a lacklustre attempt after Christmas. Listed 7 items tonight, will do another 10 tomorrow and then another 10 the day after and that might be all for now.

Bedroom is full of stuff I photographed ready to go on so need to move it all into the other room now and get my selling head back on.

Wish the listing too less time as it's taken me ages

Update guys:-
I am trying to list a minium of 10 items a day on ebay, some days I have excelled myself!!!! I have a total of 97 items (must of had an off day) & wait for it only 3 bids.... but loads of watchers, just keeping fingers crossed off into the attic for more stuff to list. I am sure my house would be 10ft taller if my attic was clear !!!!!lol:eek:


So I am hoping that you guys can keep me on track...... I have found loads up there I can't remember buying !!!!!! If only I would have saved it......

I sold 3 items last night and I can't find them. I have piles of stuff by the PC, listed piles, 'to list' piles etc plus a cupboard of things i intend to just keep relisting. I have turned the lot out, everything is all over the floor and all 3 items are msising.

Once listed nothing should be moved from here, it doesn't go anywhere else..yet the stuff has just disappeared. All three items were listed at the same time so it is logical that all 3 have disappeared.

I charity shop three or four days a week though and although I can't see how it would have happened as I am very careful, I do wonder if I have taken something in the wrong bag.

Bother bother bother

Found the stuff..it was right at the back of my 'relist' cupboard in a bag. Phew, the thought of three neutrals or negs for not being able to send goods was really worrying me. I could see my 'pot' disappearing out of the window alongside my private account.

i have sold a book today for 5.60 yippee
more going tomorrow i hope

Hiya all , i would love to join this challenge please if thats okay?
I too also have masses and masses and i mean MASSES of stuff to put on Ebay :eek::eek:
My problem i find i will have aweek or so that i find the time and effort to list loads then it slowly dies away to NO listings and in the last few months have not found the motivation to start again , i already have some pictures i have taken still on my camera and need to get back into it this week quickly. I have just been reading your posts and I find this thread motivating and would hopefully keep me on track.

I also visit car boot sales regular and purchase things to list on Ebay ..but they just mount up..so along with my house being filled with clothes / toys/ baby stuff / cds / books etc that is no longer used i also have tons of other stuff floating about

I would love to save money from Ebay to put away towards different luxury outgoings i seem to desire like mini breaks with my daughter and household items , that i dont need but yet would really like to buy at the moment i would like to buy some new bedroom furniture so all money would help.

I tend to shop on Ebay for quite alot of things , like concert tickets , i have a few i would like to attend in June so this thread would keep me in tow in the wish i could maybe get them with my earnings :D

I think i would like to start with 20 listings a week and hopefully add an extra 10/ 20 more per week to keep me going , once ive got back into it.

We have lots of items we would love to sell on ebay that are stock from our business that went belly up. problem we have is so many CCJ'S we have no bank cards that ebay require to open a sellers account. anyone got any ideas they could PM us.

the items are things that sell all time on ebay and are brand new TY Beanies we got direct from TY and are still available in shops at prices from £5.99 to £9.99 or more we would be happy just to get back what we paid TY for them before bailifs take them due to CCJ's. so any help would be great

There is no way I can think of round the problem of needing a card to sell on ebay, will you even be able to get a paypal account for instance?

I would also check completed listings for those Ty bears, they have virtually no value at all now as they cost so much to post and so there are hundreds of them going unsold at 50p and 99p.

You could try one of the other auction sites like Ebid i'm not sure they actually need a card to sell.
