    Sold 14 things last night! :T Though a few of the bigger things i really wanted gone this week didn't but hey ho lets hope they go when i relist them! The biggest toy item has gone which is great! I put on a cranium super fort toy which 3 years ago was £40 but i got it for £35 in the sale. Had a bit of use out of it and it went for £32.50 which i was damn pleased with!!!

    Still off work ill but on a bright side my daughter has woken up a bit brighter. Having to put cream in her eye at night while she is sleeping! She gets hysterical like something possessed. DF had to pretty much sit on her the other day and she kept flinging her head around trying to bite me!! :( So hopefully will have time to package up these ebay bits and add them to my decluttering list :)

    Thanks to everyone for your well wishes.

    Well done Captainspam on the sales, sometimes it goes quiet and then you get a few sales. I've had a few sales too. Just got an offer on a Next baby jacket I'm selling, it is up for £18.99 and I got an offer of £7.99, think I shall just let that one go, what is up with people.

    One good thing, I rang up about my Endowment today as they didn't ring me and the lady on the phone said there was 2 offers on her screen and she said she would go with the highest, so they have offered me £10,747 (Prudential cash in value was £10,195.30) so am very pleased with that, she e-mailed me the paperwork and I've printed it off signed it and have sent it back Recorded Delivery. Am very happy, will have to wait 3-4 weeks for a cheque but at least I know it will come (if nothing goes wrong).

    I've got 3 on Turbolister ready for later and am going to try and do a few more in the next hour.

    Got a lot finishing tonight, got some bids on a lot of the already, hopefully some will go up a bit more.

  • Hi All,

    Littlekel: I think there is a lot to be said for targetting the big stuff to sell if you are more concerned with decluttering 'cos the impact on a room withoug 'that big thing sitting there' is amazing. I am trying to get rid of a big old steam driven computer but sadly there are photos on it which I now cant get off. It was pre USB days.

    Had a bidding war going on last night for a lego star wars thing, now at £45 and it only cost £25-30 new so blummin' great! Still about 6 days to go. Advice to anyone with little boys, get them to open their lego boxes very carefully, file away instructions and try not to vacuum up the pieces!!! Six years later make a fortune on ebay!
