Thanks for that but on this occasion I listed direct

It was a rush thing, I could see the other seller had items finishing today so I thought i would get my stuff up so it would be picked up by her unsucessful bidders. I took loads of photos and used Photobucket to add them all.

Do you have Turbolister for that account? Can you bring them in from unsold items via Turbolister and then try and transfer them over to the other account that way?

ok, took the leap and opened a business account on ebay, now another question though sorry, we only have one bank account and only one email can be registered to the bank account, any I deas what I do, dont want to open a new bank account, so would it be better to just change my personal account to a business?

Items finishing today but only one sold so I'll wait until tomorrow to relist them... I totally forgot it was easter sunday today when I was listing them a week ago!! Oops.

I'm going to be sorting out my Personal stuff next week when my eldest two go to my parents and try and get some listed.

Tried to find a cheaper quote for car insurance today, compare the market . com the cheapest was £411, moneysupermarket cheapest was £393. My renewal notice for the company I am with is £346.13 so am sticking with them, was really surprised there were no cheaper ones as I've been driving since 1997 and have 13 years no claims bonus.

figured out how to add another e mail to my paypal account duh!!!!!!!!!!!!

All ready to go now:)

arrrrggh, the new account is registered as a private and there is no edit next to the account type to change it. Do you need to have bought or sold to change from privat to business, or would you recommend changing my old account with 100% feeback to the business and starting new from the new account????

A business account might be better with feedback, are you going to be selling expensive stuff? I would def want a different bank account, aren't you supposed to have a business bank account? If you don't why don't you open one of the basic bank accounts, so that at the end of the year everyting will be easier for your tax return. Good luck, will you be selling your crafty stuff? Hopefully you'll soon be coming on saying that you're making £3,500 a month as well. :beer:

Thanks, Im basically just going to be selling handmade cards etc, although we have a great argos clearance near us where all the end of line stuff goes when they bring out the new catalogues, Ive brought presents and other stuff from there that have been in the catalogue for £49.99 and got them for less than a tenner, so might try that eventually.

I don't have a business bank account I just have a little online bank account so I can see my paypal transfers in and out easily. As we cna only have one paypal account of each time anyway I use my premier account for both my business and personal sales.

The micro account is mainly used on the private account due to the net receipts although I do have a line of goods on my business account at the mo that total £6 with postage so use the micro for that.

Well I think that I have decided to swap my current personal to business, and use the new one as private to take advantage of my 100% pos feedback looking good,

However I do still have some of my personal items on for another 5 days and it has cost me to list and they have watchers so I dont really want to cancel them and risk losing the possible sales, So heres my dilemma, do I wait for everything to finish and start from scratch, or just swap account to business now?


I know Im a pain, but I have been inspired by others here and am itching to get going:rotfl::rotfl:

Jaynemaria - If it was me I'd wait until the current listings have finished as you've already paid to list them. Could you prepare your listings and stuff for the business account in Turbolister / Word so you're ready to go when they finish?

I'm doing well - I'm back and I'm listing! I have four carriers of stuff next to me that will be listed by this evening! I'm preparing listings on Turbolister at the moment.
