    thanks everyone i think i might give e-bay another go ..I think the postage put me off the last time to because a lot of the books are very heavy so i think the postage was putting people off and i kept it to the penny i wasnt over charging or anything...some books that cost £10 + i was starting at 99p but beacuse they were big or heavy the postage was a bit off putting.

    Yeah thats what stopped me selling mine there a few years ago.
    I might do what was suggested.. greenmetroplis?.. at least if I could get £3 a book that would be a start I suppose.. I was thinking of doing a carboot.. but then I thought.. Id still only get about £2 each there anyway.
    Though Im slightly concerned about £3 for my lovely big first edtion hardbacks. etc :o

    dont forget with greenmetropolis you recieve £3 ut need to take postage off of that. Probably not a good idea for large hardbacks as it would probably cost more than that to post
    finally debt free and want to keep it that way!!

    Oo my PDA is knackered.. well it wont turn on. I gave up on it ages ago..
    I notice there are loooads of broken/faulty/spares/repairs electrical things for sale on Ebay.. and most doing very well. I see one (broken etc) PDA (and mines better) has EIGHTEEN bids.. and a few more hours to go yet.. its already at £40.

    Wooo better than getting lobbed in the bin!
    I put my damaged camera .. (that wont switch on) On Ebay last night .. it has 3 watchers and and ive had three questions already. They know its duff.

    I read some of the other peoples listings selling broken things.. and they seem to be doing fine as long as you state VERY clearly its not working.

    That PDA I was watching.. *It says ALL you are getting is the Unit.. no cables no battery no discs no charger.. JUST the unit.*

    and its STILL doing well. (so it doesnt matter if you cant find all the gubbins that goes with it) :T

    Edited to add: AND.. that bloke is charging £8 !! for the PDA P+P.. I weighed mine and the max I could charge reeeally.. with the packing was about £2 (but i'll put it on for £3 then haha)
