    Drives me crazy when that happens!

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

    All mine have been 99p, apart from the mad bulgarian who bought half a bottle of perfume for £30!!!!
    Kinda feel guilty that you guys are so slow, reckon i'll be like that next week tho, now all the good stuff has gone!!!
    I did state UK only, but clearly some people don't bother reading, so won't be such a good day for sales once half of it's been cancelled!
    Is it just me, or do you guys find it strangely addictive once you start?

    I do find it addictive except the listing bit i have tons of stuff piled in the lounge but seem to find browsing diaries more appealing maybe we overdone the weekend we listed 100. I do like to see the bids coming though plus I need to make £400 this month to clear my next debt, but I may try a carboot with the things that dont sell.

    Yes it is addictive seeing money come in, but thats it for me. Listing is just something I have to do to get the money!

    I am only sellng cd's and dvd's at the moment so my expectations are low.

    Anyone from Europe has contacted me first to ask about p&p, so really they should not have bid on your stuff without checking first. Therefore, a little late for them to cry now.

    Oh yeah i so agree it's definitely the bit where i see the money coming in that's addictive, will only make a little dent in my debt, but better than nothing!!
    Good luck with the car boot, having read your diary from the start i have a feeling you will have the next debt paid off pretty soon!
