    Woo thank you for the lovely new thread sweet - I kind of gave up towards the end of January so I'm back on full form tonight with 8 things relisted on ebay, and about 20 I sorted out last night ready to go on. All 99p things nothing big, but it all adds up!

    I like things to end on a Sunday, but don't want to spend all day listing

    Good luck for February everyone :heart2:

    *Goes off to work out how turbo listing can help me

    If you don't like Turbo Lister there is another way which I have been using and passed on to the make money on eBay thread. In a nutshell: you upload items direct to eBay but just underneath where you set the price is an option to set a start time for your listing. Set one for as far in the future as you can, say two weeks, then on the evening you actually want to start that listing, perhaps tomorrow at 7:50pm you go in and edit that listing to start immediately. You are only charged the scheduling fee if you forget to amend the listing to start immediately.

    Katie07 described it well in her own terms which might help "So you upload and get everything ready to go at stupid o'clock but schedule it for sometime in the future, and then at reasonable o'clock you go on and click a couple of buttons to change it so it starts immediately"

    Does that make sense :)


    If not just shout.

    I had a very good start to the month - £50 vouchers from Barclaycard to use in House of Fraser, for paying my last two bills via phone instead of sending cheques which I usually do.

    And £59.60 interest on one of my savings accounts

    With the likes of eBay - are you putting down the price you sold the item for (without postage) in full or with the fees taken off?

    Like Purpleroses says, I do the same. My eBay money made is after all fees and postage

    I spent the last of my money on toilet roll and now I'm officially skint, so anything I make is immediate profit :)

    Just wish I had a camera so I could flog my old PC on Ebay.

    Can you borrow a friend or family members camera swifthorn? I use my mums most of the time as mine died and I haven't gotten around to ordering a new one yet

  • Hi, thanks for a great month last month - first month in for me in Jan and very pleased with my total - the thread gave me the competitive streak!! I'll go for £10 a day for February if ok - need to have a good sort out, got two items that have ended today, so off with £12.54, plus an email from Quidco for £30 which prompted me to check some old accounts for cashback - £20 in one that I forgot about = total today = £62.71!!

    One eBay item posted off today leaves me with £9.88
    I messed up postage so I lost a couple of £ - can't believe even after all these years doing eBay I still messed up my weights and undercharged
