Totally inspired by this thread, I have listed 22 items, including a broken dyson, fashion jewellery sets, clothes etc... Will let you know how I get on!

I sold an empty perfume bottle before & the handle of a venus razor!

Hubby has been buying tech at car boot sales, fixing them and selling them on ebay for very little outlay. He's learned how to fix Xbox 360s and sold them on. He also bids on old PCs and other tech, builds new machines and sells them for between £60-£100 each. He managed to make £200 just selling old bits and bobs his Dad gave him, including an old Atari computer.

Jimmy Choo bags, tags and boxes also sell well. So do Tiffany things.

i don't know if this one has been said yet or not... But todays find Empty pandora boxes. I've sold 2 single ones for £3 each and a bundle of bags and charm boxes for £15. I couldn't bare to chuck them but had no use for them x

Put up my first empty box and with a day left, my Ipad box has a bid of £1.50 on it. Might have to look out my old iPhone boxes! The laptop I'm using just now is on deaths door, a screen hinge broken, charger port doesn't work (swap batteries with an old Acer laptop that sits in the kitchen lol) but noticed one the exact same that doesn't even turn on, with a day left on ebay has a bid of £31 + £10 P&P! Will keep an eye on it.

I have recently sold an old butter wrapper! Admittedly, it was a 'national butter' wartime rationing relic but still!

If you'd taken a decent scan of it you could have also sold the pic for making dolls house miniatures.

What always worries me about people who buy old Pandora boxes, bags etc or, in fact, any high end wrapping, is that they will resell some fake tat and pass it off as genuine because it has the bag/box!!
Maybe I'm just a cynic?

I bought a jar of buttons to do some crafts with my daughter in a charity shop once but pulled one separate as it was so gorgeous. Kept it for awhile then sold it on ebay. Turns out it was collectable when I put it on ebay it went for over a tenner.







I looked up the makers mark as it looked interesting.

Update I've made £105.70 very chuffed with that! :j

Most random item was a broken Dyson and a pop up laundry/toy basket. I've listed another 50 items
