    £3.50 eBay sale :D

    Also looking for a bit of eBay advice. ..Have lots of jigsaws and children's games to go on should I list them now or might I do better waiting couple of weeks till people are more in Christmas mode?
    Though having said that the jigsaw I sold today didn't have a single watcher last week but had 2 people bidding against each other this week totally unpredictable place :/

    £5 from quidco still haven't worked out why shrug shoulders smiley

    £19.99 refund for something I took back

    £2 refund for my guppy should never have been sold it but found my receipt they charged me for three even though I only bought two and my refund today was 49p short. Will email head office and hopefully get a proper refund

    £40 from OH towards DS' shoes as he was supposed to buy them. It is going towards my water bill which is why am including it.

    £10 from a friend who bought two bags of clothes to eBay. Some were only shorts and little items.

    Oh and eBay agreed with me that 8 days to wait for someone to post something I paid for straight awAy was way too long. Funny seller thought eBay would side with them? They gave a lame excuse and said ebay would agree that 8 days was perfectly a acceptable. !!!!!! :eek: :mad: anyway glad they agreed with me. She now wants me to post item first class back when she charged me for first and posted second........

    £8.20 eBay refund


    Wow £85.20!!!! :T:T

    I received a late cash birthday gift this weekend and also returned the winter boots I had bought with the rest of my birthday money - changed my mind and decided to make do with what I've already got. In total those 2 came to £88:j. Cant believe I'm at £174.34 already! I still have my ebay funds and refund for the tops I'm taking back tomorrow to add to my total as soon as I get that money :D

    Bit amazed - every one of my auctions has multiple bids......all ending next Saturday but should really help me to get ahead in this challenge. Quite surprised as I was wondering what on earth I had left to sell! Amazing what you can find lurking in the back of a wardrobe or two! :D

    Go Aesop! Can you wait 8 days to send it back?!

    Some people on ebay are annoying and some ridiculous aren't they - sometimes i wonder what planet they live on! I actually have received a nasty email from someone who submitted a best offer of less than half of what i was asking and they were upset i accepted someone elses offer!! Apparently i should have given them a chance to up their offer.........too bad, make a reasonable offer in the first place LOL!

    I am struggling to just cope generally at the min (MH sucks) and am a bit all over the place. Trying to work through the inbox pounds emails i have today in the hopes of boosting my balance on there. have 2 items finishing on the bay in about an hour - thats my earning for today, doing nothing else cos i just don't want to LOL!

    Good evening all! Looks like a bumper money-making weekend has been happening all over, good going everyone :money:

    WELCOME S-S-S :beer: yes this thread is so very addictive! I started out as a newbie in April this year and even though I haven't made target every month, I've still made the best part of £900 in savings and gains!!!! That's really saved my bacon this year!!

    Sold three of my four items on ebay this afternoon.. two have paid already so that's profit of £43.88 after fees & postage etc. That'll help boost the total. :T

    Only wish I'd had time to list some more stuff this evening but got too much prep to do for work tomorrow. But never mind, have sorted out some of DS's clothes that he doesn't wear any more so shall wash and photo them tomorrow, and try to make time fo a midweek listing session :o

    Also THE EX has said won't be paying the money he owes me until end of the month, so will need to cover that. Off work Tuesday so going to really up my game, and sort out more stuff to sell. The month started so well - what happened???
