oh dear you've just made me feel very guilty about all the things I watch just so I can see what they went for, but didn't have any real intention of buying... have I been tormenting some poor sellers?!

It's you, it's you :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

OOh, I hate when you have an item with 13 watchers and it goes for 99p, it's so annoying!

Hello all:). Hope everyone has had a good day.

I had the day off today so I spent my time creating new ebay listings. I have turned into a total ebay addict:D. I have 20 items listed but only 5 of them have bids:( but as most of them were put on this morning I won't worry just yet. I can't stop myself from constantly refreshing the page to see if I have any more bids:o. I have a feeling I am going to get through a lot of my stuff very quickly as I am really enjoying it and now I have the hang of it I can do it quite quickly.:)

Today has been an NSD as I have not left the house and I have been sent £4 by quidco, also did a survey and some clicks, so all in all a reasonably productive day.:)

I can't believe it! I was so crazy on your behalf earlier on when you were giving stuff to charity shop that you could have ebayed and now you have done tons more than me!!! I was really scared when I started so just listed two things at once!!!!

I think people tend to bid closer to the finish, most of mine didn't have bids until the final day.

One person on here (Flying Friesian) I read her diary sometimes, she packages up the stuff ready and then puts a post it note on the outside so she knows what is what. Then quicker to post on the finish day!

Also another tip I forgot to mention is that apparently most profitable time to have an auction finish is Sun eve so either put on a Thurs eve on a 10 day auction or Sun eve for a week.

Still soon I'll be asking you for tips and I really need some of your motivation as I've got a ton of stuff that needs to be ebayed so I can see the floor again!!!

I had to turn my room upside down earlier as couldn't find the little cable that attaches my phone to the PC - finally realised it must have slid down side of bed so faced the dust zone and found it :j

Have been eating nothing but carp past few days so need to get back on track. Weighing myself on Thurs for my 2 month figure....fingers crossed isn't too awful!

Still money front going well, got email to confirm cheque on way for phone and worked a side job yesterday so got some lovely cash for that.

PS - Get well soon Gwen, you sound really bad. Defintely stay off tomorrow if you can't tell difference between a dragon and a bunch of flowers

Clarabella - ace bargains and good thinking on ex's number. It is so hard to get over someone - and I can't imagine how hard it is when you have a child together. Good plans to try for cold turkey though, def makes it easier. And am way too :eek: about white duvet covers, I'm a fan of cups of tea and breakfast in bed....so that would never work!!!!

I didn't know that could happen:eek: I thought watchers were just biding their time until they made a bid:eek:. I have a lot to learn.:(

Shoe_Gal

No - watchers are just nosy (like Rosa )

I know:o I dread to think how much I've throw out:(. But it's done now and most of it was used clothes so not too disastrous, although there were lots of books I could have sold or car booted but I am just not going to think about it.:o

I think people tend to bid closer to the finish, most of mine didn't have bids until the final day.

I was hoping that would be the case most of mine finish at the weekend so I will be obsessively watching on Saturday:)

I thought of doing that so everything is just waiting for the address label, I will ty to do it if I get some time at the end of the week, I don't want to be racing against the clock to get things posted. I think I will go and buy some packing stuff tomorrow.

I don't know:(. I haven't weighed myself for a couple of weeks as I know I haven't lost anything and have probably put some on. I have just set myself a mini target for March as huge targets just feel unobtainable. Why don't you set yourself a small target just for this month and forget about the rest of it, you can think about that later.:)
