    OMG!!!
    Selling a copy of Metal Gear Solid 2 - special edition in a metal case thingy - on fleabay and thought I'd be chuffed with £10 as the case is quite funky... it's got 30 mins to go and just jumped up to £29.99! :eek:
    So right now I have over £50 worth of stuff still with time to run on it (2 finishing tonight and one tomorrow)... Well that's a good start to the baby fund!

    I think I'm running out of stuff to sell again. I need a good rummage.

    Definitely makes it worth it! I'm totally gobsmacked!
    Interestingly enough I think between the 3 ending this weekend and the 3 I listed today there SHOULD (fingers crossed) be about £120 plus anything else I list tomorrow... I'll feel good if I can sell £150 worth this month! That would put me well ahead of schedule!
    Just trying to fidn out if it's going to be practical to sell a copy of XP I have (legal and legit etc and not OEM but licenses etc is a bit of a mare so just trying to work out what hassle it'll be if I try and sell it...)

    That would be really good to get 150 towards the baby fund

    Would be ace!
    Right we're on a roll people! Just sold a pair of jeans - finished on £19.50! (ok they WERE 501's and as new (listed as used as think I wore them once LOL) and apparently I CAN sell the copy of XP so that's SO going on tomorrow for a 7 day listing! Boy oh boy oh boy! Oh I'm so glad I actually got round to listing all this stuff!!!! It's all YOUR fault guys :) if I hadn't had to do some board tidying which meant I had to close the old thread and open this one, then I wouldn't have gotten motivated with the scratch cards and dooyoo and eventually ebay too and all this would have STILL been gathering dust! So a HUGE thanks to you all!
