    Bing0 - hope you are still doing well, would love to hear how and what you are doing. You are an inspiration, thank you for the original post!

  • Hi,

    Its quite a challenge, getting started is not too difficult but keeping the momentum going over a year would be quite difficult.

    Thinking more along the lines of turning a hundred into a thousand to start with.

    Going to start ebaying more stuff to get ball rolling.......

    Car booting when weather gets better, freelancing to get extra work...

    Best of luck to everyone

    Thanks

    Thanks for starting the original thread, it made me take Ebay more seriously. If I have any useful ideas I'll post. For chat, I'll chat on the "dribble" thread!
    I've had a Pinecone research recruiting email if anyone is interested. £3 paid per survey either Paypal or luncheon vouchers. This is not a referral I do not get any payment for forwarding the email to you.
    Please PM if you are interested.

    Hi Everyone,

    Been a while so I thought I would do an update.

    Things are going well for me and I am now up to £527 profit. Which has all come off my credit card :)

    I now have 41 members in my Matched Betting group and am really enjoying the feedback I am getting from the group members. I have had to withdraw my float money to put towards a new car for the wife so helping others is the only Matched Betting fix I am getting at the mo!!!!

    I am still hoping to add to the Group so if anyone wants some help just PM me, its a fantastic way to add to your challenge total.

    Cheers

    Hi all

    A bit of advice needed,

    I've made a purchase with my £100 and can def make a profit as each item only cost £1.16 each and I have already sold a couple for £10 each.

    However hear is my dilema. I could make another joblot purchase which could make literally thousands. I reckon I can get it for around £500 or £600 but the in order to sell it all on I'd prob be best starting an Ebay shop.

    so the question is: Is it worth going £500-£600 in the red ( money I haven't really got and therefore increasing my debt) for this opportunity?

    Is an Ebay shop a good idea?? I know the subject area quite well and they are products I'd buy and I have researched the items and they do sell, it would be a steady profit but with summer coming up I think sales will increase

    Any ideas??
