Congratulations ddraig and lookingtothefuture!!

I'm waiting for mu points to clear on dooyoo, then I can claim the £20 amazon.

Can someone please help, I was given a bottle of chanel no5 by a customer ( I work in a 5*hotel) but I know i'm never going to use it. I obviously dont have the reciept or know where it was bought from so I cant take it back, but I dont really want to sell it on ebay, because it stresses me out and with it being worth £50 I dont want it to end up going for 99p! Does anyone know what I could do with it? I also have a giftset of FlowerbyKenzo (Given in the same way lol!) with a 100ml eau de parfum, a 4ml eau de parfum and 100ml body creme. This is unsealed, and I have used the teeniest bit of the small bottle (you couldnt tell, it still looks full) but its another one that is going to end up sat around forever. I cant find a price for this but I found that the 100ml bottle is £69 ish on its own, so im guessing £75 upwards? I'm not expecting to get that for it, but hoping that I could get a decent price if I could find comewhere to sell it.
Phew, talk about going on!

I just checked on eBay and 50 ml bottles of Chanel no 5 sold for between £30-£40 in the past week (some were new some had been part used). Flower by Kenzo doesn't fetch such a good price, but you should get around £20-£30 for the set. Depends on what you're willing to let them go for, you won't get what they sell for in the shops but if you're not going to use them then something is better than nothing! I've sold a few bottles of perfume in the past (all part used) and they've always sold very well.

I'm up to 19530 points on DooYoo so just one more review and I'm there!

Love the challanges!

Not doing so well on ebay though, only 2 out of 10 items have bids, but still a few days to go!

Keep up the good work kids X X X

While i've been sorting out my bedroom i've come across a brand new radley bag and a pair of gucci sunglasses bought for me a few years ago. Would i get anything decent for them?

Here are the eBay completed listings for Radley bags, think you should do well. The green prices are what they sold for:D.

Gucci sunglasses here.

HTH.

Thank you lucy*locket, I'm definately going to sell the chanel, think I might keep the kenzo, I like it and I dont know wether I can be bother with the hassle for it, cos postage wouldnt be cheap so dont know wether people would want to pay it! Ho hum, at least Ive got a nice bottle of perfume, and hopefully I can sell the chanel for £40ish, not bad for something I got for free and will never be used! Hmm, trying to think if ive got anything else which wont be used, but all the rest will have to be carboot I think, I've got quite alot of giftsets that will never be used but probably only worth a few quid so cant be bothered with ebay, once they take the fees I will probably get less than at a carboot! xx

Wish i could get on with ebay, i might try again if i dare. While i've been sorting out my bedroom i've come across a brand new radley bag and a pair of gucci sunglasses bought for me a few years ago. Would i get anything decent for them?

Do you know the name of the bag at all? If you do then you will probably get more money for it - especially if it is a picture bag Radleys do tend to get reasonable prices on ebay, especially if it is new.

Hi phia2000 - ah the nightmare that is Ebay... I'm sorry but I can't really help you with this one - just bumping it up for you, but I'm sure one of the other ladies who are a bit more Ebay savvy will be along soon to help you out.

Good luck.

Hi raven-333, if you take a look at post nos 1 and 2 at the beginning of the thread, they will let you know which challenges have been set so far - it is not compulsory to join in each challenge, just more of a helpful nudge to get your backside (well mine for certain!) into gear.:rotfl:
