AMAZONian Efforts!

Hi, on Sunday I wrote that I had brought down 3 boxes of books to go onto Amazon for flogging.
Looking at my account, last time I sold anything was July 08 - was it really that long ago?
Anyway the thread is this - `HOW MUCH MONEY HAVE YOU ALL MADE OFF THE INTERNET, BY SELLING THE SMALL STUFF?`
Not on about bingo, comps or selling the car! Just mean the CD`s books, clothes, the stuff that just lying about & cluttering up the place.
Here goes - upto & inc July 08 £146.68, books & console games.
Any more?

Nothing yet... but only slowly, slowly adding things, so it's hardly surprising! I live in hope

£458.25 so far this year. And it really was all tat, not even the good stuff... most things sell for less than £2 but it all adds up.0

To be fair, I do have a lot of tat, but it really is just stuff I would've otherwise chucked out.
Silly things like manuals for mobile phones that I'd hung onto, old curtain hooks, nick nacks, as well as clothes and books.
Takes a bit of effort listing, packing it all up and then carting the stuff to the post office, but it's worth it when you see the money hit your bank account.0
