    Like the new list Jwil :):) We all get months that we don't hit targets. Its probably due to the fact we are so driven that its only natural we have times when its just not possible to reach them. We are but flesh and blood Jwil. I need to raise about 250 extra next month and need to get my act together to cover this extra cost. All the best for May Jwil.
    re the RM postage hike...I know the old system off by heart...so must print off the new costs rather than 'guesstimate' :)
    Well done on your lottery wins. Nice to see some money coming in.
    take care :)

    Thanks ebayqueen, good luck with hitting your £250 next month. I've got to swot up on the new prices too as I knew the old ones.

    Much as I'm enjoying the lottery wins, a few more 0's on the end would be much appreciated :D

    Well I've had a little flurry of activity since I finished work :T I've done some listings and pulled off all books from amazon that I believe are not worth having on there any more. Some I'll try on ebay and others I will put out for boot sale.

    I'll still review the rest to see if they are worth keeping on there.

    I missed you :D

    :mad: to NPB though :mad: Although I currently love my last NPB, because I relisted the item they didn't bother paying for and it's now gone for more than double what it went for then :T :T :T :T :T

    Free listing this weekend means that I should be able to get all of mine and DH's listings updated with the new postage, so that will all be done.

    Hope everyone is well :)

    Good news on the amazon sale peaceandfreedom. With amazon do you need to open a separate selling account. Like I have an account where I buy stuff and tried to see if I can sell but it looks like it would be separate?

    It's been so long now I can't remember exactly what I did but definitely I have a specific seller name under which everything is listed, but as Jwil says, once it's set up, you access your seller account using the same login/password as your buyer account.

    Had another sale yesterday, small stuff but still, it's stuff out of the house and money in. :)
  • Hi to peaceandfreedom too :) - no doubt achieving loads :D

    I've been a bit unwell for a couple of days, on anti-biotics now, but I did get a good bit of work done today.
    I also have a bit of a target to achieve next month too moneywise so need to try and sort some stuff out on the bay of e - once i can work out the new postage stuff.

    I also have targets to achieve and frankly, I did not perform too well in March and April, so I'll just have to hope that May is better.

    Need to raise extra funds to get my hair done as I am once more sporting the Worzel Gummidge look. Lots of stuff to ebay and loads of house-decorating and gardening to do. Still, it'll be great once it's all done. :)
