Had a good sale on ebay

I had an item which I had on Buy It Now @ £20 + postage with Best Offer on ebay. The same item doesn't appear too often on ebay & I've seen it go for as little as £1.85 but in the past as gone for around £20, lately it seems hard to get £5 for it. I had a BEST OFFER of £5.50 on it which ran out this morning, I was contemplating accepting this but DH said to hang on (It was a Shop listing so was listed for 30 days). Just logged on to find the person who offered me £5.50 for it as now done the whole £20 on Buy It Now! :j
Very happy now!

I've got a great profit making sale going on at the moment.
I bought a PC game (Moneky Island) for a quid from a car boot sale, put it on eBay and it's now at £28.68 with 2 days left.0 -
I used to play Monkey Island on the school library computer, didn't know you could still buy it!
Buyer not paid for my item yet but they are on 100% 166 so I'm not expecting any trouble here!2025 - finally back comping after a stressful house move - send me fairy dust please!

I just got another great deal off eBay.
I've been looking for a new PS2 for ages, since I threw mine across the room in a fit of rage, however, wasn't looking to spend £80-£100 for a secondhand one.
Managed to pick up a nearly new slimline PS2 with a memory card for £39 + £10 postage and packing.
Bargain.0 -

It was on eBay, just searched for PLAYSTATION and it was on there, I think the reason it was cheaper than usual was because the seller didn't take PayPal, only bank transfer or Cheque.
If you are looking for one, go to https://www.floodle.net, and use their misspelling search box. Put in PLAYSTATION it gives you alot of mis-spelt items i.e paystation, playsation etc.0 -
Sorry Rick!
I read your post as being 'off' ebay, as from somewhere else. Now I re read I see in my rush to find a bargain I misread the postI’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
