Just listed my second item of the day so am happy with that. They'll finish on a Sunday at 8.45 (after Dancing on Ice;)) so hopefully I'll get some interest. Every little helps!

How have you managed to end them on a Sunday when you have listed on a Wednesday?

Hi everyone just thought of another tip I found can't even remember where lol but if you put things on on the Thursday and put them on for 11 days then they have 2 whole weekends.

10 days is the max for a standard auction listing- I assume that was a mistype

I relisted a few things yesterday, plus I added on more stuff :j

Put it on for the 10 day listing so it ends next Saturday. I noticed DH has taken some sausages out the freezer this morning, I'm guessing I'm making a sausage casserole tonight for dinner lol Will use the hour that it's in the oven to list more things, gives me a time limit and a target

Just remembered to relist a pair of shoes that a buyer didn't pay for. Annoying at the time, but they had a total bargain so I'm happy to finally relist and maybe get a bit more than the 99p

I am going to put another bag of items on tonight,...i have far too many handbags atm and thinking os selling some of these - how many handbags does a young lady really need??? I must have over 15. Maybe three for a night out/wedding and two for casual (on big one small).
I must admit my flat is looking much less cluttered now and there is actually a path to the bed now
Im going to the postoffice on Fri to post all my items as i find sending them all together saves repeat trips to the post office. Im also saving padded envelopes from things i have bought online to save buying wrapping and i guess it helps the environment too.

I've set it all up so it lists on Sunday at 8.45 but I will sneak on at, say, 8.40 on Sunday (even set my alarm on my mobile ), take it off the scheduled listing and put onto 'list immediately'or whatever it's called. That doesn't cost me anything but means I can keep adding things during the week knowing they'll be on over a weekend.

Just listed my 2 items for today and carefully hidden them back upstairs so kids don't see them and start 'oh we want that' or 'Mum, that's sooooo precious'!!!! I WILL declutter this house and make a little bit of money too

That sounds very tempting as I'm so tired by the end of the day I often struggle to pull myself together to do listing.
Can someone explain exactly how to do this please.
Do I click the "sell" button as usual, create a listing and then how do I schedule it and more importantly how do I later change it to "immediate"?
I would be really handy for this weekend as I've just taken about 100 pictures of stuff to sell :eek:

im also lagging a bit. i havent added anything to ebay for a few days, just done the prep work. had lots of items end yesterday and today, so have posted the ones that have paid. i ended up being out of pocket on a couple of things, so have decided im going to put a starting price on everything that at least covers the fees.

ive recieved a message on my other ebay account (one that i set up to sell things i had made for charity) about free listing this weekend, but not on my main account. so is it not a free listing weekend for all accounts?

ps good luck for monday keys!

Yes create your listing as usual. You are looking for an option near to where you input the start price. It should say start price, under that quantity & duration, a little farther down you see see two options to start listing immediately and schedule start time (6p a listing - will not pay this as you are just 'storing' your listings here until free listing). Set a time in the future 3 weeks max - don't forget them or they will start automatically.

When you want to upload them, revise the item, go to this section again and click list immediately instead, and when you get to the end you listing should go straight on as normal.

Good luck listing everyone
