    £13.58 today, £12.60 for old clothes at the local cash for clothes shop. 98p found in a ziplock bag while searching for the one marked Xmas fund in the kitchen drawer :) think I vaguely remember starting to save coins that I find doing the washing a while ago... So it's all gone in together. On the negative EBay removed one of my listings yesterday for a pair of designer shoes it thinks are fake - was banking on at least £100 from them and now daren't re-list - can't prove they're not, gift so no receipt :(

    This bears out the fact that there is a conspiracy to keep us in debt!!!!!!!!!!!!! You'll get it sorted FC, we're cheering you on to the finish line!!:T:T:T


    Finally after being told by an agent that they had to speak to a team leader, then they had to speak to the recovery department, then they had to speak to the escalation department, then they had to speak to another recovery department, who also had to speak to a team leader of their department it has been sorted. Halle...!!!!in......lujah!!! Whole day wasted cos of their mistake - wish i still drank, a bottle of vodka might just go down rather well right now! On a happy note - Debt is vanquished :D Yeeeehaaaaaa!!!

    Did you put them on a low start auction? Might be better to do a high value BIN! Did they ask you to provide a receipt? Never had that before!

    Afternoon all :D
    Fairy hope you sort the bank out soon I am sure you will :rotfl:

    For me £140 The bay sales had one non payer so will relist it at some point in the near or distant :rotfl:future depending on if I can be bothered as the bay is getting on my nerves a bit lately :(
    and £30 for a job I did today:)

    So £170 to add to my total
    Going to bag up some coins later so will bank them tomorrow and pay them off the Mortgage which hopefully will be history very soon :T

    Fairy Clicks (sorry haven't worked out how to quote) yes started at 99p as I do everything, but knew I'd get more :( I think that's what's flagged it up to the eBay powers that be. I had 22 watchers and 2 bids in 24 hours - they haven't asked for receipt but can see other listings often show the receipt in a picture and thought maybe that was why. Had 1 message asking about BIN, not sure whether to offer them to her for £100. Scared of being banned from eBay just as I rediscover it!!!!

    Hi There what Brand were they ? A lot of high end designers will not allow their brands to be sold on Eb@y . Your listing would have been pulled due to Vero which would be the Brand checking the listing or someone has reported them as fake.
    Don't try and sell or relist them as Ebay will ban you for sure.
    Worth you looking up the Vero policies on Eb@y and see if the brand you are selling is on there.

    I had this before on Ti*berland boots. But I did have the receipt so could prove it but it was a nightmare.

    Good luck Mav x

    Not on the vero list - Louboutins. Have just offered them to woman who messaged me about BIN, and text her more photos as requested. We'll see. Maybe gumtree is worth a shot?!

    Just sold a pack of swim nappies on fb for £1.50 - 11 left in pack of 12 but my youngest is 7! That's how long they've sat in the bottom of her wardrobe... A few weeks ago I'd have just chucked them out - not anymore! Though husband has a long way to go, told him when he walked in (me all excited) his response was an incredulous (not in a good way) "you really sold those?" Pfft. Needs to get on here and get obsessed. So whoop! £1.50 for stuff I would have thrown out before! :)
