    How about joining your local freecycle group? If I don't want something personally then I give it a day before replying - reckon that if it has not gone by then they will be happy for you to have it for whatever purpose!

    when i was really skint (when wasnt i?:confused: :rotfl: ) i used to pay a visit to the biggest carboot nearby and pick up anything i thought was worth flogging on ebay i never paid more than 10p-50p an item... decent looking name branded kiddies clothes, household stuff, i even spent all year picking up hook ups for caravans and by the time summer came i must of had 20 odd of them and they sold very well on ebay just before peeps go on hols. i also picked up lots of kids swimming floats for some reason they went well in summer too. if its decent and easy to post pick it up even if you only make 50p profit its all in the right direction :j
    proper prior planning prevents !!!!!! poor performance! :p

    Well done! Do you have any books? Selling stuff on ebay is good but books seem to sell really well on Amazon marketplace - and at a decent price! (Especially non-fiction)

    Thanks, but I got rid of my books on greenmetroplis, in fact this week I banked £9.60.
    I found an old contract phone this a.m., it's a really good one so I'm gonna list that today and hope for the best.
    I love making money now, banking it and not spending it! Actually I think I'm obsessed!!! :eek:
