    Finally off the starting block. Searched through handbags and pockets and turned up £3.57. Got given unwanted coppers from family which have bagged so another £3 there and finally sold a couple of bits and pieces to friends for £60.
    have put DVDs onto Amazon and will try to photo some things to list on ebay today. What is the code to use?

  • the code is 2007mseolympicchallenge

    looks like we are all ebaying like mad, at last look there were over 70 items listed by us using the secret code
    finally debt free and want to keep it that way!!
  • am I right in thinking if the items on ebay do not sell we will have to take the money for the fees out of money we have already made?

    Well I listed some books on amazon, and appied for jobs, but I am waiting for my CRB check before I can work, and the books haven't sold yet. It's a little disheartening, as I dont have much of anything to sell. I guess we will have to see what the future brings. (and what I can win and sell, and how long it takes to see I have no dark criminal past, and how long it takes for a flash of inspiration to bring some more money in)

  • have checked my seller account on amazon and only 10 of the 15 books I have listed are showing, anyone have any ideas? I got email notification to say they will be listed

    I took 16 DVD's and games to my local CEX shop today, got more for some of the DVD's than if I had listed on ebay. Made £39 altogether so that's me finally off the mark.
    I would recommend trying CEX if you have one locally, saves on listing fees and you get the cash in your hand. You do get more if you exchange but I wanted the money. :grin:
    They do have a website too that you can check the prices on, some are only worth 50p but others a lot more. If you want the web address just PM me.

    Thanks for the tip Jules - I've just looked on there and seen that I can get £10 for 5 of my DVD's. I know it's only £2 each but I've looked on Ebay and they're not getting much so I'll go down to my local Cex on Saturday and get the cash :D

    Mine done the same. Have had an email back from them after querying it and they say it is a techinical fault and will look into it. Apparently they have added to their list of techinical faults you can read through a link on your seller account page :confused:
  • thanks monstersmummy, thought perhaps I had done something wrong being a newbie to the selling side of the site!

    I'm going to send mine over in the next hour.
