  • Well done everyone you are listing so many items!!

    I am feeling so much better today after gettting the flu....but I got a neg today (my first in 11,000 listings over 7 years) item got lost in the post and I refund straight away and they negged me :mad: and then half an hour later got a neutral (my first in 12 months) because I didn't post the item straight away when they paid - I posted within the 3 days it says on my listing and I should have looked in my crystal ball and known that the buyer wanted the item by the weekend (I posted first class on the Tuesday and he wanted it by the Friday in the week before Christmas).

    So having a day off from Ebay and will start again tomorrow.

    Agree with the Sunday night finishing time, I always try and get my listings to finish then. If not any other time at night, normally between 7 and 10 seems to be good.
  • Managed to get my old mobile on today, but then the camera died so wasn't able to photograph anything else to list. :mad:

  • Hi all, i've got 9 finishing tonight and want to try and list another 25 today.

    Thanks for all the tips Jesa I always used to try and save thursdays and sundays for eBay nights, but now I know I can 'schedule' my listings for later and not pay the 6p. Ill just do it when my OH is working nights. Thanks jesa :T

    Right must get on with photographing and stop pressing f5!

    Im up to 86 so far now - 3 already have bids (with 6 days to go!!) and another 17 have watchers!! So pleased considering they have only been on not even 24 hours!

    Aiming to get at least another 25-30 done tonight before free listing ends!

    Would scare you how many bags of rubbish Ive come across as well! Funny how a free listing on ebay has made my house all tidy within a weekend when Ive struggled to do it for months lol :beer:

  • Ok, after having a strop about having nothing to sell, I actually looked around and have so far listed 21 things with a few more still to do! Nothing fancy/expensive but hopefully they'll go and I'll have less stuff around the house & make a few pennies :D

    I know isy!! I have a bid on a broken laptop charger! We very nearly threw it in the bin yesterday then I remembered this thread and people saying youd be surprised what would sell, so put it up and have a bid!!

    Well done everyone on their listings so far! Ebay are going to make a fortune in final fees!
