2007 Olympic Challenge

OK, probably not the right board but I'm sure one of you guys will know.
I've got a complete wetsuit in the attic - boots, gloves, hood, flippers, mask, snorkel, and the actual suit it self (which, if I remember righlty is 2 parts - you wear one full suit on top of the other full suit).
I've just looked at the completed listings on ebay and it's really hit and miss, some are going for a tenner others go for over £170 and some just dont sell. It doesn't seem to make a difference, just luck.
Anyways, my question - Is it worth me putting it on there or will I be better off selling it somewhere else? They are a fair whack to buy new and I dont want it going for silly money, but at the same time dont want it not to sell as it has a reserve!! Its a complete set in a bag, gathering dust for a year and a half and no way of me using it anytime in the next 10 years!!!!

I like your thinking but my way of thinking, if I dont buy any for the next year I'll be able to call myself finallydebtfree!!! :rotfl: Then I can eat a tub a day and not worry!!!!!

why dont you put a reserve price on it that you would be willing to let it go for that way if you dont get your reserve price it wont go so you arent losing out?

I tried to apply for that loan but the page took ages then redirected me back to part A saying I hadn't completed it but I had. I'll maybe try again tomorrow. £400 would just about clear my non-car loan debt! And I could do with a search on my file.

im hoping they send the pack it would be really usefull to have £400 its tracked just need to wait or payment now. i promise it works if you get through though with no obligation it clearly states it on the site and i wouldnt make it up. im hoping for it to either pay of my dad or go on holiday with him in june. fingers crossed.

I have just taken one of my items off of ebay, found I could get a better price for it on amazon (even by loosing the 25p I paid to list it on ebay) so I suppose its worth the wait if it sells!

Have emailed my total to Woa, so the rest of you dont forget that todays the day to do it!

Seems everyone is still doing well! wont be long until there is nothing left in our homes!

rather than lose the listing fee edit the listing completly to a new item that way at least you dont waste the 25 p

well done everyone

Have finally listed 2 more lots on ebay one will finish this week and one next sunday so hopefully a boost to this and next week's totals. (being positive).

Did very well with the No7 sun products today (£84 for £4 which was on a gift card I got for making a complaint last year so effectively free) and I'm planning on trying to sell at least some of it through the small ads at work - so hopefully will make a profit there over time - slowly but surely.

Will post my 2 weekend amazon sales tomorrow and update my total once I know what the profit after postage was.

Here's to a successful week 4 :j

Up to 77.54. I know its not a lot but just pleased watching it go up! Question for everyone. I have share options (I got given them free), I've sold them and will make 400 quid roughly after deductions and 41% tax. Would it be ok to add these to my total? These share options were given to me as a prize and as I said I paid nothing for them.
