    Nice one! You obviously shop in better charity shops - I never get more than 99p for any of my clothes!

    I've started looking for eBay items that have been listed with spelling mistakes, as it cuts out some competition. Bought a 'jaket' last week, but it has come and it doesn't suit me. This will sound a bit daft, but I'm not sure how long I ought to wait before re-selling, so I don't look like I'm just profiteering from other's mistakes....

    Sell it straight away. It's yours now!!

    Crikey it's up to £19!! It's even got a bit of damage but I pointed it out in the description and took a photo. Does anyone else ever worry that people won't think an item is good enough?! I started it at 99p because it wasn't perfect!! :eek:

    I always wonder whether people read the descriptions. I sold a new bottle of perfume and shower gel and put in the description that I don't know the ml size. The winning bidder has just sent an email stating that I didn't quote the ML!!! No flies on her eh?? She didn't ask the size before she bidded!! Lol. She hasn't paid yet funnily enough and I doubt that she will!!

    I'll definitely sell it, I just for some reason don't feel right about selling straight away, if you follow me... Which I know must sound completely daft! It's like re-gifting, I wouldn't feel right giving it away the next day, I'd give it a week to see if I could use it.

    spent £51 on a big top up shop, very pleased, there is food in the cupboards!!! we had no soup etc but now we have plenty.

    looks like we will be spending £50 on paint next weekend and £50 on wood for the run:eek:

    technically we shouldn't be forking out for the paint - the landlord shuold be doing it but we have been waiting since october for the mouldy walls to be sorted out and it is now april, i just want it gone because it is gross :(

    amr sounds like a good excuse to stay in bed and have the OH run around after you! Feel better soon!

    spag well done on the eBay sales! :T

    I have my fingers crossed for some items ending tomorrow, but I'm not expecting much. Our pay rise letters should have come out by today, but it's not arrived yet... It doesn't look promising, my bosses PA told us that he'd booked this week off work so he wouldn't have to deal with the fall out when everyone got their letters...
