They've worked very hard all weekend and only went home at 7pm for their roasts so you can't be angry at them, I think they've done us proud gettin us back chatting 5hrs earlier than anticipated:D

some infor here http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/sell/turbo-lister-ov.html
and download it from here http://pages.ebay.co.uk/turbo_lister/

I've had it ages and when i got it I couldn't download it from the site coz my virus checker thing decided it was a virus every time :rolleyes:(missed a million actual viruses tho!)
you basically can create templates and standard postage costs etc
or just create listings just like you would on the site but they are saved on your computer until you tell it to send them to ebay.

I've been naughty and not done anything this weekend but OH is off work this week so gonna make him get the pram down and get that on with some other bits n bobs, I'm thinking some 7day listings 2 mo to catch those bank hol boredom shoppers and some 5 day ones on ...tues?? so they end at weekend

Oooh, go you! How easy is the Amazon book selling, MM? Is it just like eBay?

Its a bit easier than ebay, but the only thing is, popular books are being sold by big companies for 1p and you don't make any money on them so you have to put the price up a bit so there is profit and just hope that they sell

Thanks for that, Sami. I have downloaded it but going to leave it for tonight - had enough! :rolleyes:. Its just what I'm looking for though as I never know when and for how long I can sit down with the lappy.

Ooh, good thinking with the ending dates - have made a mental note!

I didn't think about it being a bank holiday weekend - but my newborn stuff is listed and ending Saturday and Sunday!

Got my first lot packed and posted on Monday. The two old ladies in my post office look so put out when you go in with parcels and interrupt their gossiping. :mad: So much for supporting your local post office!

Does anyone here print the postage on line? Theres so many sizes/prices now, I think it would confuse me too much.

MrsTinks

We have a local post office and depending on who's in that day depends on the service you get - one of them is LOVELY and if it's busy you can leave your packages and they'll weigh them and frank them etc and you pop by later and pay. The other one always seems put out by you coming in and NEVER smiles which really narks me. I WANT our village to have a postoffice but it's hard to be supportive when it's the miserable one that is in

I never print postage online - if a package is over £8 to ship (I check online first) then it goes courier
