    wise street market proverb:

    The bigger the flash
    the more the cash

    This basically means the more you have on sale/display,
    the more you should end up selling

    So.....the more you list,the better chances of more sales.

    Just as a pointer,I never list anything now less than £4.99

    It's amaizing how I have increased my totals by sticking by this one rule alone.

    You may have something that YOU think is not worth that,but if someone wants it,you only need that one bid !

    I do hope this little bit of advice is useful ?

    A couple of small sales.....£46.00 after fees.

    Seems that there's alot of money about from buyers at present,

    cant really understand it,I put it down to quantity and quality and a lot of luck.....!:o

    see you all tomorrow.
