    Cool! I'll try it on a few things now! Thanks!
  • My current total for this year (on Ebay and Amazon) is £461.98 (thats after all fees and postage). Not a bad start! Been selling action figures and other collectibles on Ebay, and books and video games on Amazon.

    I'll aim for £1,500 this year. Hope to eventually reach the end though, and have nothing left that I want to sell.

    Wow everyone seems to be doing so well.
    I am going to have a major de-clutter this weekend and list it all next week.

    Does anyone know the best way to pack dresses for postage? I've never sold clothes on ebay before and really have no idea of the best way to do it.

    I sell childrens clothing and I buy the clear self seal bags on Ebay which I put the clothes in and then use the white mailing bags which I also buy on Ebay.

    Sitting at £82 just now with most things finishing in the next three hours....hoping I can get to £100, should manage that as a lot of people hold off bidding until the last minute.
  • Yea, finally made a start and listed 15 items, hoping to do a load more tomorrow!!
    Took the opportunity to list some higher value items cos at least if they don't sell I haven't lost out!!!
    Hope everyone else has had a good day also

    34 listed so far, just taken the next lot of photo's so am going to work my way through those now.

    How long are you all listing for? I have done some 5 day and 10 day listings, I don't want to do 7 day as it means finishing next Saturday and I don't think Saturday is a good day for ending listings. Tomorrow I will do 7 and 10 day listings.

    So how many have you all got listed so far in total?

    Mrscmr - hope you are OK and hope the house viewing went OK.
