    You are right.
    I know I can make money on the big lot but ONLY if they are not fakes and I am not sure I could tell. The seller has good feedback but it is sooooo cheap for what it is that I can't help be wary (it was a mis-spell though and with terrible description so that is def in it's favour)

    Hmm. decisions, decisions

    It is worth mentioning that only really buy stock when you need it it ! So if you have lots of items to list still (like me),just because you've some money to buy extra stock,doesn't mean you have to do that.Stock that is lying about or or on a shelf,whatever is actually dead money-until it sells.Why do you think shops have sales ? It's to get rid of dead stock.....I think !

    Need some brave vibes please!!!!!:rotfl:

    Seen several lots that are ending today which I think I can make money from. Trouble is I will be spending about £250 - £300 and I am a bit scared of making a mistake. I have only bought stuff at a low cost so far so this seems a big step

    Someone needs to whip me into action or I will just dither.....:(


    It's difficult to say without knowing what they are. You say there are several, so why not start with half of them and see how you get on? Or take the plunge! Don't just sit and dither, else you'll regret missing the opportunity. Good luck :beer:

    Edit: Oops beaten to it by lots of other more helpful posts!
    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.

    right, i have no money in my cash account as I have played it all, but the bonus account shows £45 but when i go to buy a card it says I have no money.. i dont get it, am i just daft ???? !!! I get £5 a day and play that, but can't get the bonus money showing

    DSmiffy you can only play the bonus cash on bingo I'm afraid. So if you're trying table games it won't work.

    Thanks Bingo
    A good point and not one I had really thought about.Thats decided it, I'm going to bid!:T

    I have stock, but absolutely none of it is suited to ebay, it is all for bootsales a bit later. So I need stock and this stuff would be for the next couple of months to get some money for Feb/Mar as it is very suited to ebay

    Thanks for the motivation all of you. Will report back later

    Well, I still have a mountain of stuff in the loft and loads of other stuff scattered all over the house, so I think i can safely say that when i've totally cleared it all out:
    1) I will have made a decent amount of money
    2) It'll probably have taken so long that i will have started to 're-clutter' and will be able to start the process all over again!!!

    I hope everyones doing well with this challange :).

    I have some more stuff to put on ebay today. We spent this morning in a car boot sale and I bought nothing :(. But I will not give up.

    I just checked my Bingo Britain account , it says ...

    cash Balance 5.85
    Bonus Balance 30.85
    Total Balance 30.85
    Qualified Bonus 25.00

    But when I go to pre pay for Tickets it says I only have a current balance of £5.85 , I am totally confused.

    Can I not withdraw the £30.85 ?
    Do I have to spend the bonus money only on tickets ?
    £15 of it is what Ive won.

    any help much appreciated.
    Kindness costs nothing :)
