    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

    :rotfl::rotfl:

    So you've got 100 ceramic hearts and 100 googly eyes , the mind boggles........ LOL.

    ceramic hearts in the loft? get them out and listed on ebay ready for valentines day, googly eyes are ready for april fools day? or this years comic relief (and if linking with a charity you may decide to offer a percentage through ebay to that charity so may attract more sales)
    Thanks to all who post comps :T

    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.
    Thanks Yukki :-)
    EMmnently- get those hearts listed on Ebay for valentines day....could put googly eyes on them!!

    Start listing the 100 ceramic hearts on ebay ASAP ... Valentines day is just over a month away and apparently people get all soppy about heart related products for some reason ... could be the best long term investment you ever made ;) ... now all we need to do is find you a googley eyes festival somewhere :idea: :rotfl:

    Edit: You both beat me to it ... far too slow by half ;)

    Still loving this challenge, but what a massive learning curve it is. I go from being wildly optimistic to worrying it can all go wrong!!

    Made some progress today following a post on here to check out the Ebay forums (thankyou :j)They are a mine of information. I learned a lot - like you can ban people from bidding on your items if you have had a bad experience with them; you can also ban buyers who have a certain no. of non payment strikes or who have breached too many Ebay T&C. I posted a question on there and received a good response too. It seems a really friendly forum.

    I had a look at the Traders website and see many people buying off wholesalers. I am too chicken to do it yet. Can anyone verify a site they have ordered from and received the goods as described?

    Re BB I was playing today and the CM was telling players about the bigger games, they play at 4,9 and 10pm daily. You can win I think up to £2,000. :D
