I love this thread, dont get to post much more of a lurker and been trying to list on Ebay. Managed to make £66 excluding fee's today from bits I have in the house so pleased with that.

Now I dont know what else to sell!!!

I've been doing surveys too, I was hoping to knit or crochet things....god knows what! But I have 3 kids and started my 3rd OU course so time isn't something I have much of!! but I love the challenge!

Keep it up everyone!!!

Think I suggested in last part of this thread......knitting prem baby sized scratch mittens and crocheting baby car seat size blankets, don't take much wool prob not too much time if you are good and is a niche market, I looked everywhere for small baby mitts ended up paying £4 for a knitted pair then my auntie knitted up a pair very quickly, she also did the carseat blankets they are so handy as normal baby blankets t big, you could also do unique pet blankets same way or make school kit bags for pe kit from old pillowcases if good at sewing....drawstring bag type!

You earn 50p per premium review and 1.5p per each member read. You will get more member reads per review if you read and rate other Dooyoo members' reviews. Rating around the site is the most effective way of building up a circle of friends, as people will add you if they notice you rating theirs and other people's reviews.

The COF in itself doesn't mean anything if you aren't rating, as people can see your statistics when they view your profile and will be able to see if you are actively rating or not.

This thread really is moving fast now! Posted two of the 3 items which sold over the weekend, the third has not been paid for yet. I also found a lovely tealight giftset in ASDA Living for £1.25 (last one in the shop too!) which I bought hoping to resell. Quick check on ebay and there is only 1 other listed which I can locate so not a flooded market. Its gone on for £5 buy it now or best offer.

Are there any wholesale type things out there for the really little person? As in for someone who has very little to invest at the beginning?

I've been looking at job lots and wholesale on ebay but is there anything else I can look at?

Not wholesale but you could ask for free stuff for bootsales on your local freegle site or in local paper, or on facebook, or go to local jumbles and bootsales, hang about til end and you will inevitably find sellers giving stuff away, bootsales esp as some people just do a one off and want rid at end of that days sale.....and ask your family and friends for any 'junk' they want rid of......I have accquired loads like that.

Download Selling Manager (there is a free one and a monthly subscription one ... free one works well ) and the option is there by the side of each listing. It takes a few hours apparently for them to set up the Selling Manager application to work properly but you can still scout around it and see what you get (you just can't change things whilst they are sorting it).

Edit: Link http://pages.ebay.co.uk/selling_manager/

Thanks

So I download it then have to wait a couple of hours before using it?
