    Am still waiting for stock to arrive but in the meantime am trying to work out the best plan of action for eBay . As most of it be multiple items would listing it on buy it now be better? Am thinking of doing best offer but can't see if this costs more for listing fees-anyone know? Will best offer attract buyers or put them off?
    Got a bargain this morning- 2 snowboarding designer make jackets , one girls 13-14yrs and one boys 16 yrs in ex cond for £8.98 Inc postage. £1.99 each and combined postage coz from same seller :-) This was courtesy of a spelling mistake and fatfingers :-)


    Best offer doesn't cost more. You can set a limit that will automatically reject and accept if you know what cost guidelines you're working towards with profit etc.

    Well done on the bargains.

    My OH was right, these challenges have an adverse effect on me. I've just bought 100 pairs of googly eyes! Why??!!!
    Just £10,852.28p to go...

    Trust that little voice in your head that says "Wouldn't it be interesting if...";
    And then do it.

    Out of interest, what is it you've been buying and selling for such a great profit?

    I have just been selling all the junk out of my house so far, for example a changing bag bnib that i got free, old hat, scarf and gloves, baby clothes etc. So nothing exciting but it makes me money and declutters the house! :T
    :D I love comping! Just waiting for the call from ITV! :D

    :j Best win so far... iPad 3, £500 & KitchenAid Mixer :j

    Lol i don't have an explanation! I was just drawn to them :S Maybe they'll be able to spot some bargains for me. I have no chance! This kind of happened in the last challenge i did - i ended up with 100 ceramic hearts, which are now in the loft. I need sorting out! x

    everyone is buying and doing different things, i do not have much round my home to sell so am trying to buy wholesale and sell on, through ebay, no luck with it yet, but very early days, have also found a few things worth bidding on in ebay (well i think it may be worth it anyway) through using fat fingers and searching for collection only job lots within my area. next step will be car boots and charity shops, but not keen enough to go int his bad weather :(

    hope you find something you want to try soon :)

    (oh and have remembered i get commission from my catalogue, not a lot cos i try not to use it, but gonna count whatever i get as part of my challenge)
    Thanks to all who post comps :T
