I always put items for the longest amount possible, simply because the longer they're on there, the more bigs you're likely to get you can put a reserve price so it doesn't go for under a certain amount

Be calm, deliciosa. Maybe if you log off then back on your internet connection, the eBay search will be working. If not, close down your pc/laptop then reboot.

I was wondering (and apologies if this has already been dealt with in your DFW diary) whether you could approach M&S about BTing some of your more expensive CC debts? You have paid off one card completely and, I hope, cut it up. Would it be worth you calling M&S and boasting about your debt-clearing prowess to persuade them to give you a BT?

I can't seem to find it either. Will look tomorrow.

Hehe thank you, panic is over, someone actually bopught the phone for the buy it now price (£110) so I am waiting for payment now!!!!

Well, what you say makes sense but theres a slight problem: I cant increase my credit card limit at M&S I tried! They said they cant at the moment. What I was thinking about, it to throw everything at HSBC (I am not paying interest on amex!!) and pay minimum on M&S, and once the HSBC balance plus the M&S balance will be less than £1500, then I will transfer my HSBC balance to the M&S card.

What do you think?


thanks for popping in, by the way !

Apparently when you list something of bigger value it does not appear straight away, so Ive been told by ebay, but only hours after. And it worked, I sold it! Waiting for payment now!

yay!

And now I am selling more samples and cosmetics!

Brilliant! :T Really glad it sold for the B.I.N price, that's a really useful amount of money.

What a good start to your Sunday!

Deliciosa - be v v careful re the phone. check the buyers feedback, make sure they have been buying for a while etc. If they pay by paypal still wait a few days after payment received in case of problems. My DD had 2 problems selling a phone - 1st was the classic 'I want it for my son in the USA, if I send you extra money can you........', 2nd paid by paypal and she sent phone, then paypal claimed payment back as it has been paid for with a stolen ccard. She managed to contact others who'd been scammed by him, but police weren't interested, even although items had been sent recorded delivery & signed for :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: . Too trivial for them to bother with they said....... :mad: :mad: :mad:

Sorry, don't want to alarm you needlessly but just take care.

PS how were beans on toast ??

Wow, that's amazing, great news on the phone! I'd transfer the money to your bank account before sending the phone and I've just looked at your other listings, you're getting into ebay huh? I hope you're having a good day
