uptheleft, have a mosey around the ebay forum on mse, lots of good ideas there. Like how to get your ebay fees back through a mutual cancellation, and when to or not to use recorded delivery

Well done on your sales and watchers - how exciting!

Grrr - sold and posted something to someone in Athens,Greece just before Xmas. They have just contacted me to say they havent received so Ill have to refund Not a good start to the New Year.
Managed to get 20 items onto ebay Sunday and sold one of the sneaky listings I put on for 1 day!
uptheleft - sounds like you are getting addicted! Good luck.

I am HOOKED!
I have been out most of the day, with various meetings and hospital appointments! And I was itching to get back home, online to see how many watchers, and if I have had anymore sales!!

How SAD am I??

Uptheleft - :j It's a grand if odd feeling. I do the same and need to drag myself away sometimes in case my sales aren't going well.

Just had another no show with Yodel yesteday - their second - and so had to pay for next day delivery with CityLink. Argh. Cuts my profit on the thing to almost nothing.
Also, another no payment. Grrr...why don't they automatically get a black mark? Ebay just says that they *may* get a non-payment listed against their profile.

oh well...need to focus on other things...like finally getting a driving license
and just bought myself another declutter book on Ebay. I can't find the very good one I bought a couple of years back that started me on this and I refuse to buy a second so got a different one as I can't face going into the garage and trying to find it.....I'm terrible:rotfl:

Just listed one more thing on e*bay!
I have however another 10 items!
I am only allowed to list 100 items per month at 99p sales, and 100 items at a price above 99p... so im thinking 200 in all pm!!

Woo Hoo!
I just posted a question this am on the ebay board, and it was answered almost straight away!!
I love these forums!!
The advice thats given, is brilliant!
Im the impatient type, if i want to know something, i want an answer, 5 mins ago!!!

I now have 38 things listed!!
I with drew £10 this am from PP into my bank account, first time ever withdrawing money!! and they didnt charge me anything!!

Uptheleft - I need to catch your enthusiasm!!! I did loads of ebaying especially at start of last year - made over £1500 through the course of the year But not really caught the bug again this year..... Though I need to!
If Im stuck in the house because of snow during the next few days - I know what Ill be doing!!

_sleepless_

Good luck

Thick mailing bags (plastic ones) are good for posting clothing items.

You can use the same you got from Argos as long as it is sturdy enough. Remove all the labels and make it inside out.....;)

I do recycle packaging material to keep the packaging costs low.:) ( and eco friendly too )
