  • Pharmer,did you use your own picture? I know Vero do get items de-listed if you use a companies photo (i used a clinique photo once and got an item delisted). Other than that, i dont see how/why they would have delisted your item.

    Apparently, RS are dirty scoundrels and have some licensing thing that means you can't sell it publicly.

    Quite agrieved by this.

  • So my little £10 scratchcard win turned out to be a £20 win! :) i had my £5 prize tripled and the stand-alone £5. The guy at the kiosk gave me £20 and i was trying to argue with him that he gave me too much, he was adimant that he hadnt so i though,quick,RUN! But he was right and i was just being a numpty!

    Ive got a few more watchers on ebay, is anyone else finding ebay really slow and items not going for as much as they would normally do? My OH's parents are having DD saturday night/sunday so we can crack on with the car boot and have a bit of extra space in the tiny car! Im tempted to music magpie my old dvds and cds that are not good enough/worth going on play.com,but cant help but think that i should wait out til the car boot sale...

    Im off to go and [STRIKE]eat [/STRIKE]sort out all those selection boxes for sunday :EasterBun
    ;)
  • yer wait till the car boot for your dvds n cds, music magpie just give you pence when you could probably get £1 for each dvd at a car boot, plus for the full price at music mag pie everything has to be in mint condition any tiny scratches or damage to the case and they take off what they think it would cost to replace/repair

    hmmm,so why cant you sell it and other people can? thats so unfair! :mad: was it ebay that emailed you or rossetta stone through ebay? I had someone from next tell me once via ebay that i couldnt sell a giftcard on there but i did anyway. The thing that annoys me with ebay is that they just seem to do what they want,when they want.

    Hi guys

    Newbie here, would love to have a crack at this, already make some cash selling on eBay but nothing else. Can't wait to have a go at some other stuff. £45 up on eBay so far.

    Aww Rictus what a shame!
    I hope you're ok and not in too muuch pain! How did you not realise you needed loads of fillings!!? (I probably just have a very low pain threshold!)
    I've got some big bills coming in but I think I am nearly ready to properly embrace this challenge! I should know what my earnings are going to be and I should also (hopefully!) get some tax back soon (but I have a tax bill to pay :( ) I have posted two of my reviews on ciao so hopefully that will get me a few more pence and also one is a first review about the product so that might help.. I really don't get how it really works though!
    Done a new DY too so every little helps!

    How's anyone getting on with myvoice? I've done quite a few surveys for them recently and getting close to cashout. As before, if anyone else wants referring let me know!

    I'm off too look at new accounts I can open and I need to try and get a 3rd lloyds vantage account but last time they rejected me :( I am very impressed by everyones hard efforts on ebay! I don't have the inclination and I'm not near the things which I could sell but I could try but I might do it later!

    Tinkerbel i am fine right now, pain comes and goes...its always there when i am trying to sleep though!! :( So taking the laptop but away to bed just now! Hopefully i can get through the next few days fine then il manage a full days overtime on Saturday again! Payday on Friday...at long last, get paid fortnightly but last payday was xmas eve as got 2 weeks+2 weeks holiday pay! So long overdue! All i have left to pay this month is phone bill! Hopefully sell my second car this month aswel, that will pay for my dentist bill of £430 so for fillings etc but more work due after that....Just taking each day as it comes...

    So any advice for me for dental care? I think i may even start flossing, will ask my dentist and see what she says!

    On the earning side of things, looking good for a tasty payrise this summer when i serve my time!!! So excited as iv not really accounted for a payrise in budget(accounted for alot of overtime though) so i will easy manage to stick to my target if i get a nice payrise!!!Excited!!
    Work in progress...Update coming July 2012.
