    Hmmm... I don't really "trade" but my an item I sell always comes out over cost price. Usually by £10-£15, sometimes £20. I only put one a week on though as it keeps supply down and prices higher (currently I'm in the unique position of being the only person on ebay selling this particular item ;))
    Money saving:
    Buy a Skoda. Laugh at the VWs who paid several grand more
    Its a diesel. 50mpg - laugh at all the petrols
    Its a tuned 260bhp diesel - laugh at them in the rearview mirror as they vanish
    See my 260bhp dyno run video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BvjJjL7Z50

    I haven't been asked to tell you that I'm the [highlight]Board Drunk[/highlight] for this board. As the night wears on, my posts will become worse, with simple spelling mistakes, inane ramblings, and a blatant disregard for the truth. I have no authority to do anything, so there's no point asking or telling me. If you see me past midnight, please tell me to get my coat and order me a taxi.

    He He.... I sell Goldfish food on there.

    At the prices I sell at, ANY profit would feed your Goldfish, believe me!
    Exclamation and question marks - ONE exclamation mark or question mark is sufficient to exclaim or ask about something. More than one just makes you look/sound like a prat.

    Well, this last couple of weeks ive made a staggering £2 profit. Im watching my "last 31 days" turnover drop from about 1800quid downwards atm.

    Basically ive ran out of stuff to put on there! Need to do a bit more searching i think!

    It's been an odd week for me. I had one item that I was convinced would make a healthy profit, but didn't sell at all. But I had another horrible item which didn't sell the first time I listed it and then sold for more than the RRP. Mad!
