I agree, we have all got to keep going, weds, thurs, friday to prepare and then just go for it people!!!

I know some members will be listing 100+ items, but we can all aim for at least 20 new listings this free listing weekend, cant we??

:money: I can see a mini challenge coming on....whose in ?


Finally recieved positive feedback from a sale back at the beginning of may!
I know buyers dont always leave feedback but it was an expensive sale (£125), a delicate item, and postage was to the USA....Such a relief!

good luck to all above going for 50!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You will do it!!!!!!:)


I'm in misskaytee!!!!!!!!!

20 for me too. Have taken some pics this morning but going to take myself out now for a long walk. Feel like I am chained to this darn laptop:rotfl:
Delighted you got your usa feedback. I know how you feel I'm waiting on one too.

take care and go for it baby:rotfl::T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:)

My parents go away for a long weekend on Thursday afternoon, and I said I would try and finally get around to sorting out all my old junk that is clogging up my old room, which they should really be able to have as a spare room! So Ebay free listing is very timely and welcomed!!

I WILL LIST AT LEAST 50 THINGS!!!

Although as there is lots of stuff that I do really want to just get rid of pretty quick, I am considering picking out things I think will do best for Ebay, then doing a Bootfair for the rest.
I've never done a Bootfair before, except for one for a friend who sells plants there every week, so not really a typical bootfair stall. How well do clothes tend to sell? Obviously loads of people are selling them, but I've never had the patience myself to look to buy clothes, and haven't really noticed whether they are selling well.

Also, I've seen lots of people selling toiletries on their stalls - anyone got much experience of selling stuff like this - do they do well? I'm thinking would be better than Ebay as they can be fairly heavy so by the time postage costs have been taken into account, people aren't gonna pay much more or they might as well just nip down to Boots themselves!!

Also adding £125 for some overtime that I've done at work so far this month. I had this challenge, and the loan we're saving to pay off next in my mind while I was standing around as the shop was so quiet, and I was literally watching the clock hands tick round!!

All the extra money is going into a separate account so that we can save up a lump and try and get the loan people to accept a lower full and final settlement amount. It's interest free as it got passed onto a collection agency, so we're not losing out by keeping the money building up in an account rather than paying it off as soon as we get any money :j

Free listings are great a you can start them at the price you want and if it doesn't sell, it doesn't sell. I am going to get snap happy in a bit. Only thing is I am away on Saturday and Sunday

I should add youngmummy, that it will only be free for those 2 days... all my recent lots have been sold on the free lisitng days. If anything items haven't sold, I relist them on those days too!
