    No problem-the app makes the most wonderful sound when your item is sold- and another one when its paid for -like a cash register (how sad am I??)
    So just remind him to turn the sound off when you're out;)

  • MWC, that's AMAZING :T:T

    I love listening to the cash register sound when bids come in - and yes I'm sad :eek:

    Look forward to hearing the final tacky :T

    Eggs OUT 0

    Plants IN 0

    We went to a food and garden festival this afternoon. I managed to avoid buying any plants but we did spend £15 on cheese - local goat's cheese, Old Winchester, Tuma Persa & Summer. Mmmmm cheese :D

    Up to £94.72 on ebay with 1.5 to 3 hours left :j

    Yeah, well, I'm on £4.20 :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    Just broken the £100 barrier and there's a bidding war on my first item to finish :D

  • John Grant was utterly brilliant yesterday evening - quite possibly the best gig I have ever been to :D:D:D (it's certainly right up there with REM at Brixton Academy in 2003 :cool:)

    So good that he has knocked my ebay update off top slot :rotfl:

    Drum roll please...

    21/22 items sold for a massive £136.79 :T
    The only disappointments were (a) the only item that wasn't on a 99p start (Mr MWC's BNWT jeans that don't fit and he didn't return to Ted Baker in time for a refund...) didn't sell despite having 4 watchers, (b) a Phase Eight dress that had 22 watchers sold for only £7.00 and (c) a skirt I paid £39.50 for sold for £2.44 - that'll teach me!

    The star item was a Boden dress that sold for £22.00 :D
