    It's probably not helped by a severe lack of MSE inspiration on my part!

    I've got one ebay item ending tomorrow, which i didnt put a photo on.
    My other items have got a photo but arent selling as well as i'd hoped, maybe when theyve finished i'll relist at a lower buy it now price. I guess I'm a little early to be selling stocking fillers!

    May end up listing my dvd box sets tomorrow, up the fund a bit at least! Since they dont need a photo either!

    Tomorrow I'll get some motivation I promise!

    Well done to everyone else though, you all seem to be doing really well!
