Yep I use this quite regularly and have done for a while, I have just tried to get on it and everything seems to be working accordingly. Is there a specific part of the site that I may not have tried, that isn't working for you?

I only ever use the comps pages, don't bother with the forum or anything else. It doesn't like me anymore!!:rotfl:

Don't know about that as I only enter comps for prizes that I want to win for myself or the family. I don't enter comps to sell the prize if I win it.

Well I read your sig and then deleted the post which said what books is it? :doh: :rotfl::rotfl:

Kit34 - I've sold a couple of prizes on ebay - especially when I got 4 CDs the same

There is only one thing I'm thinking of selling, but its a book that weighs a ton. I cost £8+ for them to send it, so that has put me off. Otherwise, I have a 9 year old grandaughter who wants everything!!! Down to a pretty pebble she found ages ago.
I have told my family that when I go for the great comp in the sky, she is to have all the boxes that I have hoarded stuff in over the years, and there is tons of them.
My daughter told me last night that the funky dustpan and brush I won is like one on big brother, so may sell that!!!!

I have a few prizes on ebay at the moment and have sold some in the past. I'm trying really hard to pay off my mortgage as early as possible so anything that I won't use or isn't suitable as a present for someone is going on there. It doesn't seem to have affected my comping karma at all so far.

Hi
I wonder if I could get some advice? In the previous posts there was discussion of using a rubber stamp with your name and address on to speed up the process of getting your postcards done and folk were divided on this.
I have recently acquired a load of postcards which I "designed" myself online -ie chose from their options and added some text.(I paid next to nothing on special offer). I have had my name and details printed on them to save time. Anyone had any experience of this? Do you feel this might put them off choosing me? - I even put "PLEASE PICK ME" in bright pink on the front! Does this show me up as a brazen hussie? Is the quieter approach more effective. I thought it was worth a go.
I'd love to hear the thoughts of those wiser - if not older.
Cheers
Jo
