Well all 9 items sold, one bidder bought 4 so I have combined postage as they asked before bidding. Looks like I'm closer to the £50 mark than the £10 hales so could you put me down on your list to make my first hundred?
What do you all think to this as an email I'm sending to the winning bidders.
Hi,
Thank you for your winning bid and prompt payment for xxxxxx.
I hope you enjoy your purchase.
I will email you again when the item has been dispatched.
If you would like to know more about why I am selling these and my challenge to turn 1p into £10,000 then please visit my blog at (blog address) or find me on facebook or twitter @nearlynewcastle
Thanks again
do you think it's any good, I just thought it might attract a bit more traffic/followers/fans etc
personally I wouldn't bother.... people buying on ebay don't really seem to give a toss about the seller as long as they get their item....
If you after followers to your blog, then again personally I would bother but for buyers off your website.... then go for it....
-add your website address to your ABout ME page
- offer discounts to buyers on flyers in their parcel etc
People who are interested in your stock might be interested in your blog, but buyers are buyers.....
Just my opinion
jest back from the Big Town.... spent too much on getting kids and OH haircut (well not actually too much, but not enough left over to have mine done

oooohhh yes purlease Saucy!!
I was thinking to add a phone number to the old webbie but didn't want to use the home one (don't fancy sales/customer calls at the weekend) but can;t afford to do the new line thing.... so I though about a VOIP account. I just wanted to know what to look for in a company, if anyone has any recommendations and whether its a good idea or not....sealed pot challange #572!Garden fund - £0!!:D£0/£10k0 -
