    Who's got the collie on their FB profile again? My language is set to Pirate and when I try to say 'Arr' to the request it's telling me 'Arrr, some fool forgot th' rum. We be chasin' around fer some more, as fast as one wooden leg can do.' I'm on my godawful laptop instead of OH's decent one tonight so I'm struggling to keep up with anything, takes about an hour to load each Ebay page and keeps crashing. Nixinixi, I'd send you my mixer I never use if it didn't weigh so much!

    That's good news Alyssa :-)

    Welcome to the facebook group Joey!

    Paula it was me that sent the friend request with the collie pic :-)
  • They say you should only sell what you're passionate about... guess that means if it doesn't sell you don't mind having it for yourself.

    There is money in selling books online, but in my experience not a lot. I've been selling my own books and I'm only making pennies on each one. Postage and packing is expensive as people want books in good condition, no creases, bumps or marks. I don't have a car so can't do boot sales - I think I'd get a better return at car boots than online. It would be faster turnover too. Tommy McN, if you can get books for pennies, I'd go for it. Keep your expectations low and try and turnover as fast as possible and I think you'll do well. Let us know how you get on.

    Moneymabel - good advert, though rather a lot of words so I would cut this to Cally's suggestion, with tiny changes to have snappy sentences. My suggestion would be:
    Welcome to The Seren Collection. Exclusive jewellery designed and handcrafted from Sterling Silver, Swarovski Crystal and Semi-precious gemstones. I would change "The perfect gift for any occasion - or just to treat yourself" The 'or just to treat yourself' doesn't come across as "because you're worth it" (though I appreciate that byline has been taken :p

    Shouldn't that be "find every bit of ex's things and put them on ebay"?

    (Any smelly shoes in there?)
