    mind you, you'd think if it worked so well, she'd just do one herself, and then wouldn't need to bother with ebay any more...

    Dear god at the amount of 'spells' she's selling, she must be raking it in :rotfl:Alot of them made me chuckle, "GENDER TRANSFORMATION SPELL" :rotfl:

    What a wonderful thread this is :D

    A bit worrying that she ends up with your name, address and date of birth...

    I thought that :eek:
  • I recently sold some 'relentless energy' stickers for £10.50
    They were free given away at The Trafford Centre, so keep an eye out because as with many promotions they will tour the country at most major shopping centres!

    Can't post a link as I'm new but seriously guys, grab ANYTHING free, people will buy it!

    My other half and I were saying just yesterday how much 'stuff' we've got in this house and he's always keen to throw things away which I try to be as corporative with as possible but I really am a bit of a hoarder I must admit. But having read the first page of this thread I though wow what an excellent idea and a brilliant thread, then I noticed how many pages it was and thought "crap that's a LOT of reading" will start skimming through it later. We've got a big expenditure coming up in about 5 weeks and I'm not quite sure if we're going to manage it to be honest so I think this really could be a great help if we put our minds to it.

    Thanks for the thread and to whoever bumped it last :-)

    Do it, it becomes very addictive.

    I had a bag of my DD's old clothes that I thought wouldn't sell and that i would usually just leave in the charity bag for collection. I spent a couple of hours listing it all and after postages and fees made about £30 - not bad for a bag of 'rubbish'.

    I sold a worn for 2 years slightly faded Care Bears top that I bought from New Look for £8 sold for over double :D My parents couldn't believe it - I am the eBay queen in our family ;)

    I've been keeping my local charity shop going almost single-handedly for months as I had a big clearout and just didn't have time to list stuff on ebay and do the lengthy Post Office queue etc. I've also freecycled a fair bit of stuff too. However, disgusted to read in my local paper recently that the staff from the charity shop (a well-known national charity) have been sacked for taking the 'best' donated stuff and flogging it themselves. No more donations - its ebay for me from now on.

    well done

    I have loads of DS clothes to get rid of, can I ask for some guidelines

    1) What labels/price - e.g. are you talking Next or Asda/Tesco

    2) Sell individually or as a bundle ?
