    I've got AVG free version and it's fine, and much cheaper than Norton. I would recommend it.

    £1.41 in from Amazon and £5 saved from not going out last night, now transferred to IceSave, so sig adjusted... also should have another £14ish from Amazon deposited this week and at least £120 or so in Paypal when auctions end, maybe more... here's hoping people bid decent amounts - bike jacket is worth at least £50 ast it was over £200 new even if it's 2nd hand and the new look dress, well it's just too damned sexy to go for just £1.99! 7 peeps watching bike jacket and 6 watching dress... Sunday is aaaages away!

    Morning all

    Thanks for the hug FDF, and everyone else.... I'm feeling a bit more positive today, got a whole lot of things listed yesterday, plus some ending today, one of which has a bid! :j

    AVG is excellent - have been using it for more than a year and it works very well.

    Another 24.71 to add from bits and pieces.
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    I just sold my first ever book on Amazon! They say they've credited me with £13.81, so I'll see what I pay for the postage, and change my sig. Yay me! Yay the Amazon Sellers thread on this website! Yay the Challenge thread! Can you tell I'm excited?

    :)
    Sometimes Amazon is fab!

    I sold another thing on Ebay - £1.21 and got a cheque through from the paypal reversal woman so that's a relief. However, have got a non-payer - item sold 10 days ago, said he was sending payment by cheque. No cheque no contact. Have sent 2 messages - last one giving 48 hours to contact before I take action. WHY do people have to do this? Why can't they just pay?!!!

    Hope everyone is having a wonderful day - lovely & sunny here :)

    sold two things on ebay yesterday, not for big bucks but there you go..... plus, OH has got himself a job!!! :j

    OK so it's only chipping tatties but it gets him out of my hair for a few hours a day and there'll be at least £80 extra a week coming in!!!

    sorry to hear about your problems with the non-payer Sea, as they say 'there's always one'. Keep bugging them. I think actually you can do a NPB now, think it's only 7 days from auction. Not sure, ask on the eBay board, they'll know!
