    Oh brilliant, thank you : ) I still need to know what you want her to say - if it's short enough it can go on her top, in white, if you like? If you've posted it before I've missed it, sorry! LOL just made a bananananananana cake and the girls are seriously scrapping over licking the bowl!

    I have had a message from Ebay today saying I have to register as a business! I'm not a business and am only (so far) selling a whole load of stuff (mainly for 99p) from the house! They say I have to upgrade to a business account by 25th march or I won't be able to list items.
    I do list a lot every week - but it's mainly relisting! I've tried the live chat option with them - they said I have "reached the volume of selling only possible from a professional seller" and gave me a link to appeal against it. At the mo I'm selling an average of 10 items a week - most at 99p!
    I think perhaps the volume is calculated on number of items listed/sold - not amounts in cash generated from sales - don't know though.
    Is this the way it's all going to go now? Not really sure what to do - don't want to pack Ebay in as it's handy and I'm still working my way through the pile of stuff! I've contacted them to ask for exemption from becoming a business account and am now waiting for the reply.
    I'll let you know the result - but I'm guessing that there's quite a lot of other people on here who may be similarly affected!

    Edit - just read elsewhere on the forum that it's free listing day on 20th and 21st march - don't really feel very inclined to bother now - but I know I must - still have 5 or 6 larger items to list (for more than 99p!!)

  • Paula - i think "bl00dy mothers" would sum it up! if you can squeeze it on!

    talking about EBay, i forgot to say that they are changing their rules 1st apr, if you are a business seller and you sell over 100 items in 12 months and your dsr is 4.6 or over, you qualify for top seller statuis, which comes with a 20-30% discount on fees
