Didn't get chance to list much really today been on a de clutter and have quite a lot to sell though, just finding the time to get it all listed! and getting disheartened when it doesn't sell
Think i need to research Ebay a bit more and look into some of the tools it offers! to get better sales!

Managed to list 25 items then it was midnight! Managed to list all my items with starting price over 99p and tomorrow I'm going to investigate the turbo lister and get the rest listed. I take my hat off to anyone who lists more than 5 items in a day - I find it so boring! I can't imagine ever having the sticking power to do 50+.Making small changes everyday....0

Hello all, mind if i join in?
I started this at the beginning of the year and didnt realise there was a whole challenge going on!!
So far i am up to £587 so and going for the first £1000, have 27 items already listed and bids up to £31 atm with about 5 days to go, will carry on listing though.
Anyone else panicking they will run out of thngs to sell? haha, i keep looking at things wondering how much i can get for them!
I think all my high end items have gone already, just hoping i will have a few little surprises whilst i am on my major declutter mission, lets hope it lasts a little longer!
Well done to everyone so far£10 a day challenge for nov £0/£300
£10 a day challenge for jan £282.11/£310, feb £483/£290, mar £650/£310, apr £332/£300, may £440/310, jun £470/£300 jul £795/£310 aug £3660/£310, sept £510/300 oct £710/£310

I don't know how you guys manage so many postings with some of you in the hundreds!:beer: All I can say - is good for you-that's brilliant!!:T
I managed 15 yesterday and decided that I would put a bunch on 'Buy it Now' rather than auction. Of those, I've sold 4! Yay for a total of £40.80 before all the PayPal & Ebay charges. It feels so good to be getting some money towards my £1000 goal and to be getting rid of stuff we just don't need.
All my best to all of you Ebayers! Here's to clutter clearing and many more £££!!!!

2013 goal is getting rid of all my clutter and it would be a bonus to make [/FONT][FONT="][FONT="]£2000 again doing so!
£291/£2000 = 15%

well I hardly dare mention my tiny little profit of 68p made today........ only sold one item, but I'm still up 68p! And some of my other lots have bids on so it could go well from here on in. Was away at weekend in the end so not a lisitng in sight.
Will be listing today....... must try harder
