    Can i join?? I know this one has been running a while but i think its time for me to aim for something with my amazon/ebay sales & i don't have enough items for the 10 a day challenge.

    I have made a profit of 41.78 from my Amazon sales for this year, to date. I still have so much to get rid of though (even though i live in a small double room as a lodger! eek), plus really need to save the funds for my masters degree (& motorbike license)!

    I'm aiming for £200 for the year! Have 7 items ending tonight on Ebay, fingers crossed, 5 have watchers and 2 have bids.
    Credit Card 6.9% - £0/£2800

    Ha - after a long and multi-pointed email to ebay outlining my 100% pos feedback, the fact I've been trading there since 2002 and offering to explain the sources of my goods, they have taken back their block so I can sell again. Hurrah!

    Hi I hope no-one minds me posting here. I'm just getting back into the ebay swing of things after about 7 years in the wilderness.

    I listed 8 DS games at 2.30 pm and 4 have sold already BIN (can I get a whoopwhoop?).
    Aim is to clear out all the stuff that's looking at me, clothes/baby things/books/CD's/general junk. Hope to have enough spends for days out with the family later in the year.
    Just wondered, I'm sure I read a while ago a post about 'things you never thought you could sell...' - can anyone tell me where I can find it?

    Good luck to ALL!

    3 of my items sold! Yay. Made a good amount on those as well, plus another Amazon sale.

    Relisted the other items, at less than 99p, so i dont pay any more listin fees. Just want them gone :D, and more money paid off.

    Probably about £90 made on ebay this week once you take into account cost of original items, fees etc.
