Toys, ornaments etc sell but not as wel.
I was a bit cheeky last month, i scoured the charity shops nd bought items at 10p (baby clothes, nic naks etc) and they sel for 99p at least (89p profit) :T0 -
Am on a massive Ebay mission at the moment as we are trying to get everything in order as we are moving house soon, and I really do not want to have to pack up unwanted stuff that I'm sick of by now, some of which at the bottom of the Ebay boxes has been there since we moved in here in the first place.
Loads of clothes now that I'm not fussed about what I get for them, and if it wasn't for the money making being so ingrained in me now, I would have taken them down a Charity shop or Freecycled them by now!
So I'm thinking of putting them on for 3 days, or even just 1 day (although as a buyer, i would wonder why someone would have put it on for 1 day only and I would be a bit suspicious!!) I guess I could just write in the listing that I just need them gone. I'm thinking that things like clothes that there are thousands of on Ebay, a lot of people just look at what is ending soonest to try and grab a bargain. So if I list for 3 days rather than a week, then they will finish twice in a week, so more people may see them. Even more if I list for 1 day??
What do people think about that plan?
I would just take them all to a bootfair but it's a bit difficult as I don't drive, so OH has to come too, which would be fine he's happy to, but means having someone to have our son, which early on a Sunday morning I feel bad to ask anyone! Think we will just have to soon, although we are waiting until the start of next month when we find out whether we're expecting a boy or a girl, as if it's a girl we can sell all of my sons old baby clothes that we have been storingThat would free up tonnes of space!

That's a good idea DD, charity shop is happy, you make a few extra quid and the buyer is happy with their bargainGood thinking
Thing is round here, there's loads of charity shops and none of them seam to have anything decent at a decent price, I've been in before looking for bits of clothes for the kids but there isn't anything really
DD has grown out of just about every top/tshirt she had so I'm trying to find her something decent off ebay to no real avail cos it seams to be all mixed bundles and she does have plenty skirts/bottoms etc.
Anyway, progress on the second jobThe lady who's looking for a cleaner called me today to arrange to go and have a bit of a trial run Thursday. She's looking for 2 hours midweek then 2 hours at the weekend so ties in nicely and will be around £25/week that I can bring out and stash away towards a family holiday next year. Cos I dare say with the cost of going to visit Santa in December (sssh, don't tell the kids
) we won't be able to afford anything next Summer unless I get stashing now.
