Woohoo another £25!!!! well, technically, £24.90 as it was a 10p listing day jobbie but still... :j

Mentioned this in a previous message but am curious to know what people are doing about fees for things that don't sell? Are you ignoring them or knocking them off the profit along with the fees (listing and final and paypal and ...1) for things that sell?? Is there an official ruling on this?

Thanks!

I personally would take off all ebay charges, for those that sell and those that dont, otherwise I feel I would be robbing myself of my personal money. I have also given up putting things on ebay that dont sell that well - I check anything I want to sell by looking at completed listings, if around half of those there havent sold I dont waste my time with it and take it to a carboot sale (or if its books will now stick them on amazon as its free)

Don't give up on things that don't sell - I have listed something 3 times on the 10p listing and it sold today!!!

just put what you are looking for in the search bar and then it will bring up everything for sale, then about half way down the page on the left hand side are things to narrow down the search, one being completed listings, check this box and click search and they should come up

Sorry, I didn't make sense there. I meant how do I find all the things you guys have put onto ebay for this challenge?

thats ok if it will make a fair bit of money but if its only a low priced item (like most of mine are! ) then its not really worthwhile, if it sold on the 3rd attempt I would have had to pay 2 lots of listing fees (around 60p) and then all the charges when it sold. Fair enough if it was a higher value item it might be a bit different

sorry just read you put it on 10p listing days so would be cheaper then!
