August E bay Challenge.....

domestic_goddess

I have been reading through the threads on here and people seem to be more motivated when they are competeing (and my mam tol me its not the winning that counts lol!!)

Well I have a credit card bill of £375 that I want to clear as soon as possible so I have decided to e bay as much stuff as I can this month in an attempt to pay it off sooner.

Does anyone want to join me in my E bay challenge for the rest ofthis month.

I know I wont be able to pay off the full bill but I want to pay as much as I can!!!!

Come on DFW's lets make some money!!!!!!!!!!!

Great idea for a challenge

What do people have to do to join? Just keep track of how much they make on Ebay for the rest of August?

I'd love to be able to sell my old mobile, as I've got a new one on it's way at the moment. However, my phones get trashed over the year as it is a business phone, so is heavily used and worn. Instead I recycle them through envirofone.

Well done though!

i was torn...keep old one which was in ok condition or list brand new K800I that orange gave me for nothing...but OH reasoned with me that I do NEED the K800i's internet/email capabilities for my business....but as Simon83 has found its worth so much more....well done on listing it! better than me and more likely to be debt free before me!

is there an official start date/time?

I have set myself an eBay challenge to get enough in my Paypal account to pay for a trip to Center Parcs next year. I like to have a target to aim for to motivate me.

I sold my broken Samsung D500 for over £40 last week, it was listed as faulty. I had dropped it in the paddling pool! I have since had positive feedback from the buyer.

OK - have added it to my sig .... off now to find more stuff to list!
