Well done. I have talked about listing something today, but havent got aroudn to it ! Have 10 items on at the moment, two to post off and one to be collected, so I suppose I'm not doing too bad. Just had a quick break from work, my eyes were hurting so I have skimmed around with the feather duster. Was worse than I thought !

Surely with the vouchers (Amazon, etc) you could still use them, for sending gifts direct to UK family at xmas (get them to giftwrap it) which will save you even more money than shipping a boat load of gifts from the land of Oz!0 -

Just popping in mid eBay listing, to say I've had an email about an item of my furniture on Gumtree. It's an Ikea Chaise for £100, they want it for £80. I've countered with £90 - hope I haven't scared them off:eek:.LBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free

I've just worked out what you can do when you run out of things to sell. You can come to my house and get rid of my [STRIKE]tat[/STRIKE] treasures for me. I still haven't migrated to fleabay seller. Naughty Granny.
I cannot believe that 1 month from today you will be there.
