Count me in. I am aiming f0r £500 BY the end of March.
I have my first items of 2009 ending today so i'll count them in my total.

So how does this work, do we come on weekly and report how many items we have sold and how much we got for them? and is it starting from todays listings (I have 3 items ending tonight). I was actually thinking of listing 14 items tonight and not listing for a fortnight (noticed people are a lot slower to pay these days!) this should cut down on post office trips as they will all end next Sunday, anyway, good luck everyone (also Thursday night is a good selling night, almost as good as Sunday and may be good for maybe 10 day listings on a Monday - thats what I do - I vary between 5,7 and 10 days listings trying to end on a Sunday or Thursday evening and it seems to work. I think Tuesday morning is the slowest so never try to end then) Anyway good luck!Ebay Challenge -£250.14/£450 by 19th March 2009 :cool:February NSDs - 0/16February - Make £5 a day - 0/£1400

Scarlett - I was thinking of just putting my details in my sig and I would update as and when. If people would prefer you can post your updates on here and I can keep a running total on the front page. Whichever works best for you.Proud to be dealing with my debts - DFW No: 712
