**Make Me Rich This Year eBay or Else!!**

Hi - I cleared about £25....nearly enough to pay for one childs swimming lessons for the half term!!
Started to gather stuff for next free listing...got a little pile developing. Just need to make sure I schedule it in the week rather than trying to do it Sat/Sun as by experience that wont happen when the sun is shining!!!
Well done everyone.

I had sales of £61.57.

One of my items I listed as Collect+ forgetting that you have to print the label off at home, what do I do if I don't have labels can I print on an A4 sheet of paper (mind you don't have any of that either so will have to go and buy some).

Never used Collect+ before, I am sending a baby carrier, maybe should send it by RM depending on price.

Sending with Collect+ is easy but yes you do need to print the label at home but only needs A4 paper, can get the cheapest stuff there is it doesn't matter.

If you haven't registered yet for Collect+, if you message me your email address and I send a referral, we both get 10% of our next parcel cost.

The cost of sending large items through RM is very high compared to cost through Collect+. I have never had a problem with them.

Hope this helps

All my listings ended now, made about £250, can't wait for the saturday again to relist the unsold items, doing a clearout as well on friday and hopefully i'll have more to add. Using the money to clear my cc much quicker

That's brilliant, well done! I built up about £75 in my PayPal account and transferred that when my car had its MoT. I hardly ever seem to sell anything for double figures and always grossly underestimate the post prices too. Do you wrap, measure and weigh items when you list them, so you know exactly what to charge? And unwrap them again if they're still unsold after multiple relists? I need to get more organised.

Hope there's another free listing weekend soon. I listed 10 items at the last one, mostly relists, and sold two of them for a grand total of £2.99

No i just have a set postage price for the various type of item, clothing a different price, shoes a different price due to weight especially if they come with their original box
I created an small space area where all things i am selling are kept, so i know once its sold i just search there and package

Thanks Foxy

Strange though, it says only for 10 day listings scheduled to finish on 23rd, wonder why that is?
