  • I have come on here to stop myself from gazing at the screen and pressing the refresh button every five seconds. I am addicted, but I love it. I can't wait for this weekend. I have to wait in for the sky man to fix my phone between 8-1 and have planned to spend ALL of that time listing. Can't wait!!! What did I ever do on a night before I began ebaying? Oh yes, there was that thing called housework..........

    Hey Everyone,

    I'm joining and am aiming for £1000 like many of you! :)

    Just wanted to let everyone know that I received a message from ebay saying that it's free to list for private seller this weekend - any starting price!

    Happy Ebaying!!

    Well, another couple listed last night. I have a few with watchers but only one with a bid, no complaints though - a bid is a bid! Will try and get time to list at weekend.

    I often start my listing at 99p, rarely do I feel I didn't do ok, if I didn't want it, and now I have a pound, it's all good! I do hope to get more though!!
      To those who are given much, much is expected

        £2025 in 2025 = £680.60
          Food Budget £180/9.30.
            Fiver Friday #13 £35

            I am definitely going to try and make 2011 the year that I declutter and get rid of lots of stuff on Ebay so this thread will be a good starting point for me.

            Am hoping to get some stuff listed over the weekend while it is free listing :)

            Phew - got to the end of the thread!

            I ebay in fits and starts - had a good purge of stuff late september/early October when we decided to try and move and so anything I can get rid of is good!

            This year I'm going to have a target of £600 for the year.

            After each batch of things finishes I pay the fees for ebay, do online postage and then I know how much profit I've made by what is left in my paypal - I then download the paypal spreadsheet and calculate for individiual items, but that's a bit OCD!

            Good luck everyone - have a list of what I'm putting on this weekend for free listing!

            My first five listings are finishing over the next 3 and half hours. The suspense....... The "Refresh" disorder is killing me!
