    Am I too late to join the Amazon/ebay challenge? Have been 2 years without Pay Pal access (their fault) and they only sorted it out yesterday. I desperately need to get going and think this would be a great incentive. As yet haven't sold anything on these sites, although I have bought. Can somebody help me please?

    Hi Remrat....I just signed up to sell on Amazon yesterday and it couldn't have been easier! You just go through the basic screens and follow the instructions.

    For ebay its similar and there should be an Ebay Sellers tutorial on there too. Let us know if you get stuck and we'll all try and help!:D

    Had another very good day selling,and as I was sent home from work this morning because of the weather,spent most of the day listing.I did £168.00 less fees of £18.00 again...weird,my fees yesterday were much the same.So my total for today was £150.00.

    Its all going to plan,I just have to keep on listing !!!

    Hope everyone's okay,good luck all :o

  • oh no!

    I have been so slack!!!

    not done a thing. crumbs.

    and other rude words!
    Nevertheless she persisted.
  • Well, I'm so excited about my little stash of cash :j and then I read the totals others are getting :eek: Don't know how you do it!

    I made £32.51 in January (my first month on this challenge) which I'm on track to beat in February. I only count the cash once it's in my account, and it's only just started to come in.

    Today I had £13.49 in my account from play.com and Amazon should be sending £30+ into my account in the next week or so - so beaten January already and I've 36 other items listed so who knows what will happen.

    Thanks for the motivation to carry on with this and congratulations to everyone... patience is everything - we'll all get what we need (not necessarily what we want) :p

    Play seem to refund my fee once I say I've dispatched something. Anyone know anything about that?

    I think that play.com had a special promotion on over Jan where you wouldn't pay any fees when you sold stuff. I sold a couple of things with them in Jan and the fees were refunded to me as well :beer:
