    Just listed a bunch of stuff on Amazon. All at cheapest Marketplace prices and I'll be really happy if the stuff sells at the sort of prices I've been listing at.
    I've never used it before but it's SO EASY and takes a load of pain out of eBaying stuff! Only concern is how long stuff can sit on there? Am I expecting to add anything more to my total this month from it for example or am I likely to be holding on to stuff for a while yet?

    There's no real answer to that one. I've listed DVDs that have sold within 20 mins, and others that have sat there for 6 weeks. I often get emails telling me that something I had completely forgotten about has sold. Amazon is a strange place to sell as there are no 'completed listings' or anything to be able to judge how well or quickly things sell - Just trial and error really.

    On the brightside, you get paid really quickly on Amazon - the buyer has to pay straight away so it is already there waiting for you when you log on. You just have to confirm that you have posted the item to be able to withdraw the money.
