Been ebaying everything , DD old toys, books, car parts from garage, you name it and I ebayed it... and reached my total of £2,500 for my new to me car!!! Yey *runs around room waving hands in the air*

Wow! well done:j:T:T

I reached a milestone today too! I am now over £1000. £1090.53 so far with lots on ebay still to finish later today. I am hoping for a bit more yet.
It will hopefully go back down a bit too though, as I have my eye on a few new lots ending this week to replenish my stock

I don't chat often on here but I catch up when I can. I find I have enough time to either make money or talk about it. For now, making it is winning :rotfl:

Hi crafters, just discovered www.craftjuice.com and have loaded something up onto it. Before loading it had 71 views on Folksy, so I'll let you know if it gets any more views as a result - might be worth doing regularly if it does.

Well I'm still negative and proud of it ROFL.

I am still buying stuff like it's going out of fashion (last purchase was some new ziplock baggies so I don't have to send items out in manky old ones) but the negative is slowly going down now as I'm getting the odd sale. I *nearly* bought a load of yarn this morning for my new-found crochet flower obsession and then went through the wardrobe and found some very similar stuff that I got at a boot sale yonks ago, so just as well I resisted.

Crikey! That's quick! (Makes mental note to keep an eye out for vintage coats.....)

I know!! Mind you, just because there are watchers and a question, doesn't mean it'll sell! Fingers crossed!

Sorry I disappeared 2cats, had to do taxi run, but I've just this minute made my first purchase from Folksy! I'm going to be one very proud owner! :j

Thanks everyone :beer:

You can all do it too...

With eBay I just used to post within the UK and then I decided to post Worldwide and OMG everything flew. It took a while to sort out the postage prices and made sure that they were in the listing for Europe and then USA & Australia. I was worried about sending out but a lot of people are happy to pay for signed for delivery. Maybe something to think about?

I brought a load of large size clothes in Jan for this challenge and have sold the grand total of 3, but they are more for summer.

Anyone seen the sun this year yet? I think my next goal will be to build an ark :rotfl:with space for the new car obviously!

Wow!! Well done trying hard and the_cat!!! :T

Munchki's off out for the afternoon, I think it'll do her good just to get out and about for a wee while, but I'm sure she'll be back this evening!

Thanks for the heads-up on craftjuice, 2cats.

It's beautiful here in South Devon - almost tempted to have a glass of wine in the garden...almost! Thanks for the ebay tips, you've just given me an idea :beer:
