    I'm thinking that my last payment will be my dd which goes out on the 1st December but IF I make more sales on fleabay then it could be earlier (I hope so) :D

    I'm just dipping my toe into the pool of facebook selling, seems quite a fast paced thing. I can't keep up! :rotfl:

    join a group that is local to you, post a picture of what your selling with how much you want and where you are and wait for people to comment on your picture and try and convince you to take less money :rotfl:

    Go to the search bit where you would look for a person and type in the name of your nearest town or your region and see if it comes up (usually for sale in X TOWN and the surrounding areas) or there may be some specialist markets e.g. childrens stuff or dress agencies.

    J_M is correct the haggling is fairly amusing! It's worth selling things for less than ebay though as they collect and pay quickly in general and no fees etc. Some interesting characters on there though...:D

    phones are always my favourite . . . 'will you swap your brand new top of the range phone for my ipod touch with a cracked screen? . . . doesnt affect the use at all!' :D (yep I did have a fair few of those when getting rid of the Nokias :D)

    But to anyone selling a phone on a FB page, PLEASE do not agree to swap with anyone you dont know as a few people have come back on my site to say what they have swapped for is actually a cheap japanease knock off and you cant tell till you open the back :(.
