    Few more bits went on eBay last night, but only a few pounds and most haven't been paid for yet.

    Have just had a call from ASDA though, to say that they can't deliver my shopping due to the snow. Delivery re-arranged for Tuesday with free delivery (£2.50) and a £10 discount for the inconvenience. I'm going to add £12.50 to my total for this month, but I have run out of bread....

  • Nothing to report for me.

    I have joined a couple of new sites hoping to earn a bit of cash. One is nectaradpoints which I seem to be having a bit of trouble with at the moment and the other is adxpert. It's early days on that by I did make 40p within 5 minutes of having it.

    Sold DH's car on Ebay but apparently the winner pressed bid by mistake and doesn't want it. Presumably they pressed confirm bid by mistake too:mad:.
    I have opened a case with ebay as I paid £10 to list and £20 final value fee. There were other bidders so it would have sold for £20 less but now nothing :(

    I know you cant get back insertion fee but you can send a cancellation request to bidder and if he accepts it, you can get your final value fee back. At least you will save on £20. Better than nothing IMO..;)

    If there was another bidder you should be able to do a 'second chance offer' where the other bidder agrees to buy it at the price of their highest bid

    Hope you sort it out, good luck.

  • Well, I've been rubbish, but have two rather expensive items ending on ebay today so am hoping to add £80 (at least) to my total. I have also ordered a new screen for my iPhone, so as soon as I have fixed it I will list that too. :(

    I have given up on swagbucks - I don't know how to get my points up as I've already signed up for everything and surveys usually don't let me through.

    Thanks but the problem is then I would have to pay two final value fees which would be £40.

    I think there is 4 days time span to wait then you can close the case at your end and you still get FVF back.;)
  • £2.87 so far today, almost exclusively on dooyoo, but I'm starting to run low on things I actually own that are electronic, so will soon have to move on to the lower paid categories, I might actually make today's goal :smiley:
