  • ahh that's good hlcarroll you've confirmed what I thought :)

    Just thought i'd let everyone know incase they didn't realise and it would be a shame for no one to get paid for their reviews which they worked hard to write.


    Just checked my email and I managed to sell my item on ebay for the counter offer of £62.50 - Not sure what fees will be on that but hey it's a start...

    congratulations to the lady that had a baby on sunday :):) i want a baby!!!!

    congratulations to looking to the future! great news!!!!

    I would sell

    The fees will be shocking chillin! eBay are bad! I think the rules have always been about 6 months for dooyoo. i had forgotten it though so thank you !

    hlcarrol, you could put the perfume on eBay "buy it now or best offer" . put it on for £50 it will cost about 40p to list. then people make you their best offers, so cheeky peeps can put in £30 and you can decline, or reasonable people might offer you £44 and you can accept. im doing this with the xbox as i didnt want it to sell for 99p either!

    Each review is worth 500 miles therefore 7 = 3500.
    You the get 15 miles for every rating. That's where the extra comes from.

  • Sounds like everyone is doing well, and congratulations those with fantastic news, babies born and babies due! Lovely start to the new year.

    I was wondering whether it would be worth me selling my wedding dress and halo tiara on ebay? I don't want to go through all the fuss of paypal setting up accounts to have money held or worse as some stories have shown. I would rather go for postal order or cheque I think, but do you think that will put buyers off?

    Is there somewhere else I could sell like amazon or is that not really the same thing?

    Hope someone can help! :o

    I'm pretty sure Ebay have a new rule that sellers have to accept Paypal, which means if you want to sell anything you would have to set up a Paypal account. Could you advertise them in your local paper instead?

  • Jamtart - - yeah I'm sick of the rising fees in ebay - it makes me think am i doing the right thing even bothering with it, i have an item on there that if it sells i'll have to pay something very hefty for it... xbox has sold for the £62.50... i'm pleased with this, and i'm going to use this for buying some presents, but also to help buy some curtains etc for my new house!

    :)
