    Yes, I'm thinking about giving up on ebay and just listing everything on amazon. I seem to get more regular sales and the postage allowance is much more generous :)

    The only thing im finding in amazon is with the books that sell for only 1p, some of mine are new and I would lose money on them! Its so much quicker to add things though than ebay!

    Yes i agree that ou get better on amazon except for relaly popular books... things that are mass produced like Jodi Picoult books etc they're not really going for more than 1p but then my sheet music and things are going for like £5 and postage is £2.75 which is really generous.

    just had my amazon report, I've earned £73 since i started listing items a week ago! I'm really impressed especially as I thought I was just going to take veeyrthing to the charity shop! Also got someone coming next week to look at my craft items that i'm selling... fingers crossed she buys the lot (i'm asking for £85 for it)
  • Oooh, well done Foz/Loz :D

    Hope that your daughter is less clingy today Foz, I know that feeling I have a 3 year old that has a habbit of wanting to play by herself until I sit down to make some money!

    Well done on your Amazon sales you are doing so well. :j

    Today my daughter has been as good as gold! Hurrah! I have managed to do TWO ciao reviews today thanks to her sleeping in until 11am and now having another nap :) feeling much happier! I have sold 2 more items on Amazon today! And i've listed my old gameboy on ebay and already it's on for £8! Who wants an old gameboy?! I have an old sega mega drive which my husband reckons I will get about £40 for so i'm getting it out tonight to check it all still works then I'll put that on as well! My Mum also is thinking of doing a carboot sale soon so I dropped off two bags full of rubbish round at hers today so hopefully that'll be another few quid! I am getting doubtful that I'll get £400 by mid August though...! How're you guys doing?
