    Right feeling very excited right now, gone and bought some e-bay stock for the first time ever, hope I make money on it!

    My local Mothercare is having a 'everything must go' closing down sale, and I figured Mothercare stuff should sell well? I bought a total of £239.85 RRP value stuff, all nice and clean and in original bags where appropriate, with original Mothercare full-price price tags on.
    I've got
    3 twin packs of Moda nursing bras
    I pair of nursery curtains
    I nursery fabric lantern (poncy name for lampshade)
    2 pairs of girls 'Ugg-style' boots
    3 pairs of boys character slippers (Ben-10, Horrid Henry, spiderman

    and 14 adorable Christmas toddler coveralls (long sleeve bib things but Xmas costumes as well, little snowman, father christmas, christmas pudding designs) that I'm going to save to sell near Xmas 2011.

    So, £240 total value in shop full-priced - how much do you reckon it all cost? £22.50! Bit of a bargain I thought!

    There was loads there and I didn't really know what to buy, so I just went for the best condition stuff that will package cheaply and easily, and that I thought was cute. I might go back tomorrow for some more - what do you think of my choices? Anything duff you think won't sell? Anything I should grab as much as possible. Any other suggestions (it was mainly clothing, and I don't have enough money to invest in things like pushchairs).
    Cash not ash from January 2nd 2011: £2565.:j

    OU student: A103 , A215 , A316 all done. Currently A230 all leading to an English Literature degree.

    Any advice given is as an individual, not as a representative of my firm.
