ohh where is everyone?? busy listing on ebay....
I made £37.01 yesterday so i've reached my target of £300 for the month. Think i'll change my goal and from tomorrow try and make £1000 by mid June.0 -
So far this week I have made £14 from 4 items of clothing that I have sold. My Star Wars collection is up to £155 so far with about 4 days left to go, and I am feeling quite hopeful about that one as I have loads of watchers on it :-)0

That's a great total so far for your collection, hope it goes through the roof for you! :T
Sold my voucher so off to post office tomorrow and then I can add whatever profit I made to my total.0 -
I have three items with five bids on them... and another 6 items with none. But they have some watchers. Really hope I sell at least half of them, even for coppers, I'll be glad of the space!0

Good to hear that people are doing well and there's a steady income stream for most, even if it is coppers.
I haven't sold anything this past week which is a first since I started this challenge in January. I've 100+ books on Amazon and Green Metropolis, but no one is buying. Any suggestions anyone? I'm keen to get something for these books even if it's 50p, but they're not valuable and I've had no luck on ebay when I've tried.
Guess I just need to be patient - it's just that I've nothing left to sell and I'd like some cash.
Good luck to everyone with items for sale. mhollins83 I hope you get what you want for your star war collection - do you think you'll get close to the £1,000?0 -
I would like to join this thread. First I need to collect together everything I want to sell and take photos.
I've only ever sold one or two things at a time on Ebay, so plan to list a whole load of stuff and hopefully get a few quid back!“A budget is telling your money where to go instead of wondering where it went.” - Dave Ramsey0 -
Right, lets get motivated. I just looked up one book on Amazon, cheapest used price is £12.25 so I've listed mine at £11. I love it when you dont need to take photos!
Next book to follow.“A budget is telling your money where to go instead of wondering where it went.” - Dave Ramsey0 -

Thanks Nova girl for the suggestions. I'll think about the bulk books on ebay. A car boot is out of the question - though the perfect solution - because of my work hours and the minor detail that I don't own a car (or know anyone who does)! I've put some books on Gumtree - I'll let you know if that works. This is such a great site for support. Thank you!0

I took some books from work down to the local book dealer - 2 boxes and they gave us £5 but better than nothingNot been here in years! Hi everyone. Make £10 a day challenge = £78.45/1550
