Hey, a possible way for those who would like to use the FLW but who were unable to post is to make a blank post in the category you want during the FLW and then revise afterwards. That's what I did on Sunday - made 15 blank posts and filled them in with details yesterday. That way I got the listing free and no one would do a BIN when they don't really know what's on offer. :cool:

I do this all the time, on normal FLWs as well, but yesterday I got an email from Ebay to tell me off as it's breaching their policy as you're not allowed to do these 'place holder listings' so my item was removed.

Bit silly of them though as they removed 1, but not the other 19 I'd done

Think they must be more stringent on BIN items, but might just be a coincidence , I will be more careful in future though as don't want to risk my account and 100% Feedback score by being caught again.

Augh! to slow payers Got £75 of sales still to be paid for from weekend - 4 buyers total. One has contacted me to say they will pay Thurs/Fri, from the others there is total silence. One has purchased from me before so knowhe is genuine - it just drives me mad!!! Means I have to go to the post office every day rather than just one or two visits. Sorry -having a rant!

I sometimes list without photo if I am in a hurry on a FLW and add a photo the next day - think thats within the rules cos there is nothing to say you HAVE to have a pic.

I have got a couple of late payers too - waiting for payday maybe??

Monkeynut

Late payers probably waiting till Payday, yes.
I often find this.

Hoping will be a good time to have the BINs for people having a little payday spending spree! Hopeful anyway..

Any hint of a Jubilee FLW?? Pretty please eBay

I have a watcher on one of my BIN items I listed at the weekend and that is it. Finding ebay really slow at the moment. I too am hoping for another FLW my nan has given me a 3 piece wedding outfit that I am hopeful will sell what with the wedding seasons coming up.

After this I don't really have anything left to sell, the summer clothes I also listed at the weekend have no watchers.

If anyone else is selling items for summer, please can you let me know how you are doing? Maybe I am too early.

I think we were right about payday - 2 payments rolled in today so now I have only one payment outstanding. I hope they get paid tomorrow! Otherwise I am going to have to raise a non payment thingy. Got loads more 99p items to add on this weekend - got to get into the ebay zone! Much easier when the weather isnt nice!

My BINs from last FLW are not doing good either.....just closed 1 NPB case. after waiting for nearly 2 weeks....:o:o:o

I am still doing UK only sales but want to start slowly for EU....but don't have exact idea about how to charge on postage and any other restrictions of countries...so need to study that before I venture into it...;)

My very first sale was to a buyer outside UK - nightmare and almost put me off altogether:eek: Had a few more hassles so decided on UK only in the end so good idea to do some research first. I do sell to ROI though - often get requests so unblock that buyer for that item and change the p&p when I send invoice
