I have spent several hours this afternoon going round and round in circles looking for a decent wb hostinig that isn;t expencive - there are just so many different options on offer can anyone reccommend a web hosting service for a shop ?

I have mine hosted through Stormwire and I love them, cost me about £60 for the year (they are an american company) and it does include a very good shopping cart option that you can add to it which is all included in the price. I have experienced the tech support as well which was brill.

You can also use another company that I used to use and still do for another site that I have for called Heart Internet, again very cheap and have built in shopping cart which is really easy to set up just a bit time consuming, but then shopping carts generally are!

Right - update on shoe saga. I have pulled the listings, I think they are worth more than 99p, and with everyone struggling to sell this week and no bids with just under an hour to go I didn't want to risk it. Will have see what I can do to them to add value!!!!

Moneymabel - you can block non-UK buyers in your Seller Preferences on Ebay - I had this and discovered the hard way that it's not enough to say "UK buyers only" - one stroppy Australian buyer pointed that out to me!:rotfl:

Thanks :-) have done this now

Have just sold something else on buy it now so things are looking up this evening!

I think you've done the right thing. I have just searched well worn / used / etc and look at these item number 110489806476 omg :eek: I think if you're willing to take a risk just get them really dirty looking and perhaps pull some of the inner sole out and list them as whiffy :rotfl: I found an old black pair of ballet pumps yesterday which I meant to bin years ago, half tempted to test the water !!

ebay update - I have messaged my Brazillian bidder with the postage cost, hopefully they will be outbid !

Blimey- they certainly are well worn!
I feel a bit uncomfortable about this sort of thing tho- smacks a little of !!!!!philia to me:mad:

Seen this site, would be good to think about starting designing t shirts, but i wonder what 'tools' would be required to set up making and selling them?
So im a relish and t shirt man now!:o:rotfl:
