My post office in town has gone bonkers! They've done this new ticket system, but they still have a little postage counter where you can do little stuff, normal postage, lottery etc. I went in, no one around the counter and I had two items and the lady said I had to go and get a ticket cos I had more than 1 item!!! I just had to turn around and go cos I was going to give her a torrent of abuse for being so stupid. THere was absolutely no one waiting or anywhere near the counter. :mad::mad::mad:

Anyway, ended up just posting one item so profit for that £1.88. I was fuming so didn't realise that I could've just walked out after that, then come back in. She couldn't've refused to serve me again as I'd have left the shop.

Thanks everyone for your comments, it has made me feel much better about my sales.

Tirlittan and Sweetpeas I have never used the free ads, what sort of things should I sell via those? I do have a cooker in my dining room I need to sell - the fact that I've just bought a massive sideboard off ebay that won't fit on the wall unless I get rid of it should be the final incentive! Would that be a good candidate for freeads?

debtbegone - you're right I don't have that sort of stuff lying around, but thanks anyway for your comments.

Batgirl I feel your pain too!

Anyway, £2.03 to declare - .3p from interest:rotfl:, £1 from lightspeed and £1 as a 'sourcing fee' for picking up four vintage curtains for a crafty friend to make things. It was a fab 1970s material, got all four for £3 and they're really big too! Really didn't want to take any extra as it is a really good mate, but she insisted! Maybe she felt sorry for me too after the Coast dress incident:rolleyes:!

Also, didn't realise it was free to list for 99p anyway so was using free listing days to list for 99p! Now I know I can set a higher minimum on better items.

hiya mw, I wud put the cooker in the free ads yeh. The one I use is in our free local paper. I never put the house phone number in the ads cos u never
know, I put my mobile in.
I put all sorts in there- bundles of kids clothes, ps games, toys etc. The only thing they ask is that it's not over £50 asking price and it's not copied DVDs etc.
Worth a bash!
