Enough is enough - the great declutter

Hi everyone...
I haven't been on here for a while, have spent months decorating.
Today I've packed up 2 boxes and 2 bin bags full of stuff for the local charity shops.
I've also listed 50+ items on ebay, emptied my turbolister! (some already sold BIN :T )

so feeling a whole lot less cluttered..... what a relief:j

Listed 22 items on ebay. I can't believe what a difference the half price listing plus free gallery offer makes to the charges! Have to get some more on!!!

I swear if this buyer lived down my street I would be removing 'it's' limbs!!!

They are SO going to be taking advantage!!!

Just relisted 14 items that didn't sell. I have more that I could list but I haven't the time to be writing new listings. But I did upgrade them all to Gallery pictures as well :rotfl::rotfl: Maybe, just maybe I might get rid of some of this stuff!!!

Hi Guys,

Not posted for a few days.
Started sorting out DS1 wardrobe but then had a bad headache for 2 days so it got put on hold.

IN: Cushion
OUT: Carrier bag of broken bits of toys.
EBAY: Nothing listed at the mo.

Also, have about 4 boxes full of toys moved to shed ready for car booting, so they are out of the house but not gone completely yet!

Question:
I have lots of out grown children's clothes (mainly Next) which I was going to list on Ebay for 99p.
Thing is, if they only sell for 99p, after fees (15p & 7.5% FVF = 7p) is it really worth it, especially if they pay by Paypal on top (is it 3.4% + 20p?).
I'd end up with 50p if I'm lucky. Do you all do this?
Just wondering if it is worth the time and hassle for 50p.
Would appreciate your thoughts, thanks.

Ebay:

4/13 items with bids totalling £7.39

Totally missed listing today as got invited to a BBQ BUT £50 just received (finally!) on Quidco for Betfair should be paid to me shortly so that more than evens it out!

I thought this myself this week, having waited for one buyer to pay up for over two weeks, with no comms from them (I had emailed them four times), I was wondering where I even stood.
