    I have 114 items on Ebay. All at 99p auction or BIN for £2 (dvds) or £2.50 (others). All started on a 10 day listing. Only got one watcher on 2 auctions. Just wondering what I did wrong as no takers yet ... curious. Next time, I'm just going to go back to 99p auction start on 5 day listing.


    that must have taken you for ever, think its a hit and miss - i've listed the same thing twice for 30 days and 3rd time two sold within 48hrs of relisting so i dont think there really a pattern to it at the moment.

    Didn't take that long as I use Turbo Lister so had them already set up from previously and only had to alter the postage to the new prices.

    I really need to get into ebay. I have some reusable nappies still in pack that I bought when pregnant and never used. I have 6 or something. Other thing is my GHD's broke, common issue with a loose wire. They seem to be fetching a few ££ on ebay in a roken state so wondering if its worth a 3 day auction with 99p start.

  • Morning!!! I am all excited, the sky is clear blue and there is that bite in the air this morning, the one you get when the sun shines bright all day! Just wish I hadn't snapped my washing line at the weekend! Must get a new one today.

    I managed to get a bit fat zilch listed yesterday, but did fill a box with things to list and nap OHs phone to get 70 pictures done for listing today, so not all that bad! Had a call back from the bloke wanting books, he would take them all and pay me double what I paid for them, but he lives in Aberyswyth (sp?) so thats a no :( its a 9 hour drive from there to here. Back to the drawing board with that one :(

    Big long list of jobs for today, most of them errand running or parcel packing, so kick me off if you see me here!

    NLID - you want to get a fishing boat, the only good thing is that it is a Zero rated industry, meaning the VAT man always pays you, not the other way around! Apparently providing food means you get to claim every penny of VAT back, hence the good mood this week, after shelling out £1500 (inc VAT) to fix it this month, the return was higher than normal and it arrived in the bank this morning, I look forward to VAT returns! :)

    Paula - even OH chuckled at the Sulkie!
