    I collect old notes but never branched out into the coins else I might be spending what I make on your listings!

    Congrats bing0! That's a great total.

    Are you selling large, expensive items or is it sheer volume of things?
  • Wow Bing0, that's great!!

    I was feeling excited cos I'd just had my first sale (ever!) on Amazon, and I think that'll only net me about £5!!:rotfl:

    It's all counts though, so I'm pleased as punch. :j

    Will update my signature once I know the exact amount I've made.

    I was given some collectables off a relative,so they have not cost anything :D .I have good feedback and always post small items for free,and always post ASAP.I have found I get 20-30% more for my items since I started doing the free postage (worldwide).

    Thankyou all for your positive attitudes,it's so refreshing to here everybodys encouragement and success stories.;)

    Just a thought,if any of you are struggling to find items to sell,why not ask relatives or friends if they have unwanted bits ......

    Keep it in the family !
