    Well if they want it BB they'll still go for it - if not then they were probably up to something a bit shifty anyway! Good payout from Quidco there too!

    My feeling yuvky has moved to being a chesty cough today and I'm rapidly losing my voice :o:o Mum is popping in tonight as she hasn't been round here for about 6 months, which means I really ought to be tidying up a bit but I don't have the energy :o

    My big bulky item on ebay has bids up to £16 now but I'm feeling uneasy about it, I think I might remove it and relist it, I'm just not sure I have clearly explained the condition of it. I've listed it as new and have said it has been out of the box but not used which is true, but the parts of it aren't in their plastic packaging anymore, it was all unwrapped and plugged in but then not used so put away again if that makes sense? But I'm worrid someone will buy it as an xmas pressie and I dont think it looks good enough for that?? :o

  • Can sympathise Benben-my sinuses still bad. At least there are some very good cheap remedies in supermarkets. Asda sell the sinus tablets like sudafed for a fraction of the price.

    Can you not just add an amendment to the description? (sorry, even though I have bought from ebay, have never got round to selling)

    I think you can only change listings brfore they get any bids, once there are bids i think you're not allowed :o

    Hi benben,

    You can edit a listing, even with bids but you can only do it the once. The edit appears below the main listing with a date of when you added it. Perhaps you can put the addition in capitals? (although I think you have explained it well enough)

    You do sound like me; I get completely paranoid about all my listings - whether I have been accurate enough about the condition etc. but to date I haven't encountered any problems in relation to this.

    Thanks for that Floxxie, I've just revised the item, it has been really playing on my mind today. I think its because I bought the item for £10 in the sales last year (reduced from £50), and it looks like it will make a good price, its already at £16 with 3 days still to go :o I just feel guilty and worry that someone will be disappointed with it, I don't know why as theres nothing wrong with it, I just didn't use it after all :rolleyes:

    I don't know how I made it through the day at work today, my throat is so sore and i'm coughing like crazy and it hurts :o:o I reckon I'll be in bed by 6 tonight, I'm absolutely shattered and am flaked out on the sofa at the moment with no plans of going anywhere :D
