    NOOOOOOOOOOOO :(:(:(:(:(

    Our camera is broken :eek:

    My toddler broke mine a few weeks ago, but we still had my other half's one so it was fine. The other day it started having funny lines down every photo we took, and now we just can't even get it to turn on. (And before anyone asks, yes we have tried replacing the batteries, twice!!)

    Have a little stash of Argos vouchers saved up from Consumer Pulse so may have to treat ourselves to a new camera. At least it won't actually cost us any actual money, and as we are both signed up to Consumer Pulse (shhhhh!!) they will build back up quite quickly.

    Hi Everyody

    Can you put me down to list 50 items please. I have been listing items yesterday and today and am now up to 28,

    I have never listed that many before as I didnt know about the put in a start date option.

    So thank you for that information. If all my stuff did sell I think the kids would disown me when I went to the post office.

    Congratulations Rosie! :j

    Well I've kinda lost the plot with the challenge this month! :mad: I keep forgetting to post when I make some money, and have sold loads of things on eBay but can't be bothered to check my receipts to find out how much it's all come to! Need a great big kick up the bum!

    I love the sound of the ebay listing challenge, can you please count me in for 20 listings. the most I've ever listed before is around 12, so 20 will be a challenge for me!

    How much detail does everyone put into the listings when listing so many items at once? Is it a couple of sentences, or a full on description?

    Re: discriptions for listings.

    Well i try and make sure its got all the basic info in the listing.

    Size / measurments.
    Colour
    what its made of.
    Condition.
    What make it is.
    Try and get as much info in the title as possible.

    So an example could be.

    Title: SIZE 5 M&S BLACK LEATHER PUMPS, FLAT SHOES.

    Discription : Great pair of black leather pumps from M&S,
    lovely soft black leather, very comfy!
    only worn on a few occasions, so very good condition.
    Ladies size 5 uk.

    Lots more great items listed, so take a look! i will happily combine postage where possible.

    Thanks for looking, good luck!

    So not a massive discription, but hopefully contains all the info, would also include as many photos as possible.
    DO make sure if there are any problems with the item that you discribe that, and take a photo of the problem if possible

    When buying nothing is more annoying for me than a poor discription and just one photo, especially in the catagories where 12 photos are free!
