I started listing on the 7th of April, and so far have made £149, but £25 of that hasn't been paid yet, and I've got 3 unpaid item cases open so I'll probably never see that money. It makes me so cross, I'm selling stuff because I'm moving house next week so I really wanted to have this stuff posted and forgotten about before then. Why do these inconsiderate people bid, then waste your time having to chase them up? Grr!

Still, that £124 I've made is very pleasing. Mustn't complain.

People have probably bid on things (or auction sniped) and then gone away, I had someone win 2 pairs of Pyjamas on my Business account about 3 days ago and they e-mailed yesterday to say they had just come back from being away and was glad they had won and would pay with Paypal soon.

Maybe, but it's been over two weeks. Most people don't go away for longer than that. And if people know what they're going to go away for over two weeks, why bid on things?

Right, I need to get back on track with this eBaying malarkey!! Haven't listed anything in weeks (months?!) and got a bagful of stuff doing nothing and a bank account looking very bare!! (partly because I'm owed money, grrr!)

I have just relisted a couple of unsolds, might relist a third, then I need to get photographing and get listing!! Will try to do some this evening, and may even do some tomorrow depending how my plans pan out....Need to make me some money!!

Any motivation is welcome!! Congrats to all you who have kept going these last few weeks - it's gone very quiet on here recently!

Sold two of my 99p relists... pleased about that ... will package them up ready for Tuesday.

Have listed another large item (buy it now £125 or best offer) for local pickup, so fingers crossed someone takes an interest in it. Also relisted a ton of 99p thingies that I just can't seem to get rid of!

katie07 - good luck with your listings. I'm always motivated at the beginning of the month... it's probably the best time to sell, too, as people have just been paid Or at least that's what I tell myself!!!

Hi everyone

Well, I've been listing allsorts of stuff mainly magazines and majority sold for 99p but as I didn't expect to sell hardly any I have sold about 50 since the start of March and have another 60 to go. I'm happy because I nearly recycled them all:eek:
Still have clothes to sell etc and I was really hoping that this weekend would be free listing, but nevermind
I have everything good to go -photos ready to upload and descriptions ready to cut and paste:dance:

I'm always worried about people claiming things haven't been delivered so have been keen to send items recorded however I've been thinking for anything <£46 that maybe standard post would make things cheaper and perhaps more attractive to buyers.. I'm then running the risk of people claiming things haven't been delivered but proof of postage should sort that with any PostOffice claim. Do you guys think it's worth the change?

Had 2 unpaid on the same item, offered as a second chance.

AND my Paypal account has been compromised; credited with funds and then half of those withdrawn ... :shocked:

I hope there's another free listing weekend soon. I don't like using all my 99p listings up

Hopefully they will do another free listing weekend this weekend as the bank holidays are over now.

Sold 4 books for 50p a pop, re-listed the unsolds. Had a request to combine postage, not sure what to do.
