merrymary, you made a nice amount there! well done. As for dropping bags outside of charity shops, I would worry about people stealing them, but I do see people leaving them outside ours so it's probably ok to do.

jtz - don't fret, I'm sure that if you've priced them competitively you'll get last minute bids.

I currently have 10 out of 30 items selling... £40 bids so far. Most of the stuff selling are things that I rescued from my mum's charity bag (with permission). She doesn't use ebay but is always happy for me to sell her old stuff My own stuff isn't doing anywhere near as well!

6 things have ended but none have any bids, I don't normally end listings during the day but tried to get lots more done last weekend, nevermind will relist some of them this evening for 7/10 days. Got another 25 ending today but only 1 bid so far

This is a piece of work of mine that i thought might do ok on ebay but can any of you tell me whether you think its too expensive, too cheap or just not sellable please? Thanks

mid January isnt a great time to end listings
many folks on monthly pay will be 5-6 weeks between salary payments

Not a bad evening for me at all.
Sold more than I was expecting and still have another 17 to finish yet.

Not doing too badly - I need to work out how much for 2012 so far....One comic I listed sold for £5.50 not bad as I bought it for 40p 24 years ago! ish. Listed another 12 anyway....to end next Sunday

too_much_debt - Do some relisting. You never know - could sell next week.

Yeah, I know January is a bad month but I didn't have high prices on the items, prices ranged from £1.25 up to £8. Going to wait for the next FLW for the higher priced items (items I want more for) and start the things I just want rid of at 99p tomorrow and Tuesday.

^I think you really must just have been unlucky this weekend, as I had a pretty good night for bids, best in a while. What sort of items were you selling?

I didn't sell a few books, think I will just c/s them as they were only worth pennies and are taking up space.
