    Thanks to the original "what you never thought you could sell on ebay" thread, we have sold the following:

    - beer mats
    - old car tax discs
    - mobile phone that I put through the washing machine
    - freeview box that no longer worked
    - magazine that someone was throwing in a skip
    - mugs we "acquired" from a restaurant once!
    - voucher for £10 off a Tassimo machine
    - empty printer cartridges

    So, get selling everyone! Every little bit helps!

    What kind of beer mats were they? My colleagues at work collect beer mats from all the pubs they visit for me!

    Free samples of cosmetics, moisturisers etc from department stores.
    Free gifts that come with stuff you buy, such as stuff free with magazines, orders online from boots etc.
    There are also people who make and sell hammocks for rats/mice/ferrets etc. I haven't sold them but I've seen them and bought similar.

    One of the first things I sold on ebay was TREES! Yes, I sold my row of 10 leylandii conifers, they were about 8' high. A guy from London came with a truck and gave me £60 for them, and he had to uproot them himself. We helped him in the end, as he was struggling.
    He wanted an instant fence as his neighbour had recently started renting his house out to some unsavoury tennants.
    keep smiling,
