    Thanks :) babymoo, I'd seen it on lots of other phone auctions - some of which said things like no I can't send it to your cousin in nigeria?? -not sure what that meant but anyway the guy hasn't asked me for postage costs to Australia and the postage is supposed to be free, thought it might make the listing a bit more attractive, so no way can I take postage to Australia out of the end price lol! anyway from the ones I've looked at the bid list for, it's usually a different bidder at the end of the auction to the ones that start it off so hopefully he won't win! Rock night is a brilliant idea, wish I could go, too far away though, good luck with it, think you are great for doing it xx

    Been thinking and I might sell my Nintendo Wii, bought it mainly to do workouts on but with puppy running around it's just not happening! Thought OH might use it with me but he's not interested in the games.
    Havent got the boxes but have the white wii, wii fit board and game, wii active and wii active more workouts, also 2 controllers and nunchucks. No idea what they would fetch? If anyone on here's interested let me know of course!

    hi paula yes places like game, cash generator etc all rip people off. remember being offered £100 for my 3 week old ps3 at one point yet they said it would be retailing via them for £350. ebay is going well mabel as well as another option.
