What happened tmd? Did your buyer go away?
I'm having a nightmare this week - a failed courier collection (although think hubby just didn't hear the bell) and a buyer who has purchased two items but then I realised that I had completely misdescribed one of them and have offered to give it f.o.c. It's now been four days of emails back and forth trying to sort out an invoice - at this rate she will be giving me a neg!
Apart from that there is a little under £200 in my Paypal account which I shall withdraw when one of my three outstanding buyers pay.
Not sure whether I should list many more as I am going away at the end of the month and I can guarantee people will pay when I am not here.
I'm also really jittery on when I am going to get that email, the one that makes me into a business seller. I guess I won't know until it happens but it does put me on edge.
how is everybody else doing?Mortgage start September 2015 £90000 MFiT #060 -

Please can I join this challenge? Want to get rid of my debts as quickly as possible, my boyfriend proposed to me after 7 years and I would love to get it all gone before our wedding day next year!
Plus, im sick of the mess my wardrobe and house is in, too much rubbish and it is driving me crazy!
Started this morning, just put on some clothes that I got away with wearing on holiday but wont get away with wearing here in England and I have bids up to £10 alreadyYay! Every little helps .. I'm also listing for longer, I have zero patience and I usually only list things for 24 hours, but I'm listing for longer, trying to get them to finish on a Sunday

2017 wins so far: Diddly squat

Hi all, thought I'd just pop in and see how you are all going *waves*
I was doing this challenge earlier in the year but had to give it up due to our impending wedding. This time next month I will be a married girl so I'll be back onto this challenge. Hopefully people will still be interested in my summer items at the end of August!
I've just had a look at my seller dashboard and I'm a bit peeved to find that someone has given me a 1 or 2 star for item as described. I take ages making sure I describe my items well and none of my buyers have contacted me saying they weren't happy with their item.
Keep up the ebaying and I'll see you all next month in this thread!0 -

There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

Is there room for another on this thread?.
I've done about £150 worth of ebay sales over the last 6 weeks.
Why is it that for every box of stuff I get shot of, my rellies bring me 2 more to deal with?.
The faster I clear my van, the faster they fill it. At this rate, I'll never clear it to sell it.Never Knowingly Understood.
