    Sorry to hear about your job, and I can understand why it would have upset you, but what a lovely daughter you must have raised, to ask such a sweet and thoughtful question.

    I dunno, we raise them to be nice, then cry when they ARE! :rolleyes:

    Thanks Snaggles she is lovely ( but I am a bit biased there )

    I think she is turning old style though :eek: she is currently making flapjacks in the kitchen :D I darent look but the last time I did she was covered in flour :o

    Maybe she's using it to roll them out on? Otherwise, you're going to be eating rather stodgy flapjacks later on! :D

    Sorry to divert the topic from flapjack back to ebay, bit I am actually pretty rubbish at ebaying and I was hoping here might be the place for some tips? I have put stuff on plenty of times, but never seem to have much luck. I don't know where I go wrong but I don't seem to sell anything!

    Any ideas?

    If you use turbolister you can include lots of different pictures for free using Photobucket and this enables the bidders to see more. I always make an effort with my presentation - search item & description for 2007mseolympicchallenge for some examples. Could be teaching grandma to suck eggs if this is what you do anyway! I also reasearch all the previous closed listings to see if the items I'm selling do sell and for how much. I do have maybe 15-20% of items not sell.

    gaaah, don't talk to me about ebay :-(

    I'm reading this to keep me busy during the last 10 minutes of an auction - there was a tattier example of teh same item (with a listing in block caps) finished an hour back with 23 bids & an end price 4 times what mine is sitting at with 3 minutes to go ;-(
