    Yay £7.48 so far! lol. I still have loads to list, im doing it in small bits though as i dont want to do so much and confuse myself :D x
  • ooh can i join in please :D

    I didnt do it but the stuff is mine and it is on my account i was just to poorly to actually put it all on myself so that counts right :D

    Stuff all went on on Saturday and apart from the maternity clothes which i brought a bundle of from ebay it was all free so as long as i make the £33 that the clothes cost me il be happy and everything else is a bonus :D

    I think its time to revisit this thread so I'm giving it a bumpity.gif
    I bought some bargains in the current boots clear out to put on ebay (gotta love the ebay iphone app for price checking :cool:) so I'm listing things again.
    Christopher has promised to help me sort his toys out in return I'm going to use some of our profits to get his build-a-bear PJs and slippers :)

    Hi

    I really like this idea. I've recently found out I'm pregnant with my first child (hopefully all goes well too), so I am keen to make and save as much as I can both for the baby things and to supplement maternity leave.

    I have recently started ebaying after a long time and I tend to find I spend the profits I make. After reading this thread I've decided to try and ebay/ amazon what I can and put that money away. I don't think I will make much, but I will aim for £100

  • I'll re-join, although I am definitely not pregnant! One expensive baby is enough for now.

    Congrats Lottie, and good luck with your eBaying.

    I currently have 7 items on eBay, and a pile of more upstairs that needing photographing tomorrow.

    Ok, so I've been selling on ebay some bits and bobs that I no longer want (or need)- some things haven't sold so I am relisting. I was doing ok but then I've started buying maternity clothes and a few other bits so I have spent what I made- oops!
    So from now on- no buying from ebay (unless its a really really good offer that I need).

    Oh but I have sold a book on amazon which made about £3 (postage was expensive as it was a hard back)- so technically that is profit!

    I think later this week/ next week I am going to have a sort through unopened makeup/ toilettries and clothes and see what else I can list. I will have a look through books after this as I think it will take longer to sort through them.

  • Giving this a New Year BUMP!

    I have so much stuff I need to get rid of- I'm setting myself a challenge to sell 20 items in January.

    Anyone want to join me?
