Hello
I am going to list a load of stuff that I think people are mostly likely to buy as christmas gifts. Does anyone have experience of when is the optimum date to list it?
Thanks

    Yea definately now because even it stuff doesnt sell you can still relist it in time.

    I put 15 things on 2 weeks ago and everything has ended with brilliant prices. Basically paid for all my xmas shopping and it was just old jeans and t-shirts I sold.

    Crikey, I'd better get scanning!

    Thanks everyone for the advice and best of luck with your own auctions.
