    Please help me get my head round chow, I write reviews....people read and rate my reviews.....I read reviews other people have written. If this is the case why can't I seem to rate other peoples reviews, it says 'please write a review yourself....' 'only members with one helpful review can rate other peoples' does that mean that all my 'somewhat helpful' reviews need to be better to get 'helpful' so that I can then rate?

    Ok now I have 2 helpful ratings yet I still can't comment or rate a review...help!!!
  • Happy New Year everyone! _party_

    OH returns to work on wednesday so hopefully will be able to start money making for this year.

    Wow Elysia how many sites going to try and get back on with the ones I was doing well with and then try a couple of new ones.
    eBay is out of the question for me got rid of everything before Christmas!

    Have already started my change pot. Did one last year but didnt keep to it very well but still made £75.

    Sorry was keeping up but the last few days have been made all the family have been struck down with an awful stomach bug my turn came thursday night. Hope everyone is well.

    joe - is your username the same on there as on here?

    My customer just paid so I am half way to the £50 for the month in sales of one kind or another.

    I see a couple of you saying that. It must mean your average rate. It sounds like you need to try and make the review a little better, then get some rates on it before you can rate. What a strange system.

    Ive only done one review and it was only about 200 words as it was my first one and didnt really know what i was doing. Im going to write another more in depth one tonight and hopefully i will be able to rate peoples reviews soon :)

    I have decided I wont be able to take part in the ebay part of the challenge as i have no car to get to the post office
    Xmum - I have not been able to get to PO either through illness but still got rid of a few items - got stamps for Tesco Grocery, weighed my items on kitchen scales and then added a little extra for god measure - then gave to postie.
    Only problem is not prooof of posting - so onyl use for low value itms as if they go astray you'd have to pay up but not be able to claim it back form postoffice.
