    I have been sorting through clothes and shoes I have not worn in years to flog on ebay. This will start me on my way to £10000 and will also build up my reputation on my business account.

    You should do well on old clothes,but even better if you call them Vintage Retro !

    sorry but no.....

    you are looking at anything from the 80's back..

    and vintage i personally call anything from the 50's/40's back... and then this is pushing it with some vintage collectors...:rotfl:

    retro is used for something from the 60's/70's but it does seem to be used for everything now......lol...

    lol didn't think so. I am just listing my stuff as second hand although most of it has barely been worn. I am terrible for buying clothes and not wearing them!

    anyone know much about trading stocks and shares?
    the only advice anyone i know can give me is 'get a stockbroker'
    If it was that easy, everyone would do it... i have £100 to play with already...

    Overdraft: [STRIKE]£1700[/STRIKE]£0 as of July '16!

  • Esqulax I am not qualified to to give any proper advice in this but I have been doing some research on this myself so I will rely to you what I have learned.

    1, Don't invest anything, pick something to invest in that you like the look of then put fictional money on it for example you have £100 work out how many shares you could buy and include the appropriate fees and keep a note how many you "brought" then one week later check on your fictional shares to see if your lost or gained anything this teaches you a bit about the market with out the related stress.

    2. Try and talk to a financial adviser at your bank they will suggest the appioriate method of investing in shares.

    3. it's a gamble, expect to lose all of your money, hope for the best plan for the worst. Millions have been made and lost which i'm sure you aware of.
  • I don't know much about trading stocks and shares, but what I do know is that because of transaction fees, it's rarely worth it for investments of less than £1000. Unless you are very lucky or invest a lot of money, or are in it for the long haul (at least several years) you won't make much.

    If you are going to buy some shares though, go for one of the online only brokers with the lowest transaction fees. Interactive Investor and Selftrade have low transaction fees I think.

    maybe not, as they are of no great age,let us see what others think would be a good description ......


    I'll start with:

    Post 90's Retro Style Shirt :D
    "Do not let what you can't do interfere with what you can do."
  • Littlewoods.com and Empire Stores have glitch in system with ladies kick flare jeans.

    HV00516 is the product code.

    £6 each, but when you order in even numbers and click checkout, it reduces it to £1 a pair. This includes delivery.

    Great items for reselling, even on boot fair. Depends how much profit you want. RRP £24. I would have thought 12 and 14 size would be popular, and if you are selling on ebay maybe the long length 33 inches, or regular if you want to sell on car boots.

    Stock sold out earlier, now back in stock
    VR repayment  £404  £156.02 PAID
    Airpods repayment £249 £185 £75.90 PAID 
    Airpods repayment £144 £99.01 PAID

    Capital One £1400
