    Hooray! Well done! :T

    I've sold quite a few eBay things in the past, but I end up taking ages over them anyway - I don't think I've got much quicker with practice at all! I write very detailed descriptions. :o

    Manage to get 5 up this evening at least. Already got interest in one - wahey!

    Hey all!

    I first read this thread back in January and failed to get my bum in gear! Finally listed my first (ever) 5 items on eBay - they were all freebies so my theory is if they make any money it's a bonus as they cost me nowt to start with! As a newbie I only get 10 listings per month but will keep an eye out on free listing weekends from now on!

    Good luck all and here goes...

    another 4 items sold this weekend. One of them was with the overseas postal system, which I didn't know I signed unto.

    You can't send those buyers an invoice, you just have to wait for them to pay!!

    Can I join you please?

    Have been listing on EBay for a while, but think this challenge may be the motivation I need to list more stuff ( I have an ever-growing pile of things to list!) I've got 4 items up at present and sold one item yestarday.

    Will aim for the 20 free listings per month.
  • Used my final free listing for this month! Sold one item, had bids on 3 others so feeling pretty chuffed! Hope the post office trip doesn't bleed me dry and then PayPal snaffles the rest!

    Next stop... April! :D

  • Managed to list another item this morning, so have 5 on the go at present.
  • Very cleverly (not) left my bag of things to list at work. So I shall resume listing when I get back there unless I find a few things today.
