Hi
1p roadkill today.
Ebay is very quiet at the moment isn't it? I have 1 watcher and that's it!
I think, for me, it's because the stuff I have at the moment is all relisted and tbh is the dregs of my initial clearout:D!
Need to get inspired!August Shopping Challenge. 26/8. Budget £250 Spent £256.81.. £6.81 over. So £0.00 a day left.0 -

Only just bought my toyota previa this Jan, other car failed terribly on its mot so had to scrap it.... i didnt really think it over, and am now paying the price, its a 8 seater ( theres only 4 of us and a dog!)
its a gas guzzler too, and insurance is, as you can imagine, a fortune!
it was cheap to buy, had just passed its MOT and had a years tax, bought it off a friend so knew it had no hidden problems, its a great car, but costs a fortune to run
I would love to sell it, but dont think theres another mug like me about
So im almost in the same position you were in, but really haven't got the option of a trade in or saleEveryday im shufflin':dance: Proud Padder ~ All Hail The Power of Pad0 -
Hi Everybody,
I have £108 to add to my total. My hubby and son went to USA a few weeks ago to see a sick relative. Whenthey were due to come home their flight was delayed for two days. Before they checked their cases in they took clothes out of them before going to the hotel.
They went and purchased a few t shirts and hoodies before they came home as my daughter wanted a few Holister things.
Well I sent a letter to the airline to ask could we claim the money back and they said yes. So received a cheque this morning for all the stuff they purchased.
I have alot of stuff on ebay with lots of watchers but only five actual bids. Come on everybody start bidding instead of watching.
