    Happy Birthday Floxxie :beer:

    I'm really annoyed with ebay at the minute. I've had my listing removed by ebay, as apparently if the items i'm listing are not sold as seperates by the company that makes them, then I can't sell them....

    Is there anyway round this? I had loads of watchers and 3 bids on it already.

    Surely if the things are mine, whether they can be purchased seperately or not, then they're mine to sell??

    Nightmare, no interest in any of the playstation games either :(

    Oh dear, just been doing a bit of research (I miss the old ebay selling app giving statistics. The overall app doesn't do that I've realised.)

    I also found old Buffy magazines from 2003-2005 in the clear out from my dads. These magazines do sell but individually!! I'm going to be listing till the apocalypse! Annoyingly inspite of the large number I have now I know I threw loads out back then...

    Still not sure what to do with the other magazines. Any ideas?
    Can we pretend that aeroplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars, cause I could really use a wish right now...

    My buyer who I thought I was having problems with emailed me today to apologise for his behaviour as he received the ipod box this morning :) Yay.

    I'm now adding recorded delivery onto all my listings in future. Better to be safe, hey.

    Its some dust bags by Radley, you get them with the bags/purses but obviously can't buy them on their own...

    I wont relist, i've emailed ebay for more info on it, would I be able to list them elsewhere? Or will they all have similar rules?

    Thanks

    I think thats because they could be used by someone selling fakes to give more authenticy to their own item - thats why they removed your item. In the past designer carrier bags have been removed for that reason too. Its annoying as I have a small Radley dust bag to list at work so I will have to wait until a Radley wallet comes in to list with it :(

    I have no new listings on either - did sell a few relists from the last free listing day which was good. I have lots of good things to put on, I just can't get up the willpower to do it

  • Listed another item tonight; think I'm going to buy some packets etc to make sure I'm using the right postage. Anyone got any suggestions for reasonably priced packets? Mixed sizes?

    Got 3 watchers, why watch something with no bids, you might as well bid on it cos it's not going to be cheaper than the 99p start lol.

    Sometimes people will 'watch' an item that they have themselves, so they can see how much it goes for - I do it myself sometimes. Re packets - if you have a Poundland nearby they are good for padded envelopes in different sizes. I buy my plastic bags from ebay, and usually just get a couple of sizes. They are very strong, and light so keep the postage down a bit.
