  • So, I have 7 things on eBay now and lots on the selling groups, but nothing is really selling. I think everyone is tightening their belts after Christmas. I sold a board game and a pile of craft paper though, £6.
    Make £2023 in 2023: (all decluttering), current total £2860 me, £330 for friends & family, £468 charity donations.
  • Something else sold this morning which was a nice surprise. Please can you add £11.70 to my total?

    Hope everyone is having a good weekend x

  • Made £2.99 yesterday which brings my total to £10.26. I've been trying to work out if it's really worth my while selling things on eBay for 99p. Thankfully I can walk to the post office, so no petrol costs and I have plenty of packaging. Think I will carry on till I get fed up.

    I've never had much luck on fb selling sites but I have sold larger items on gumtree and netmums.

    Back on the selling train...this weeks selling totals are :

    FaceBook selling page
    £4.00 for the old ps2 games that were finally collected

    Ebay (profit after all fees)
    £26.26 for a junk blow lamp, school polo tops bn and a ken wood juicer.

    Taking my grand total to £35.26. Which is sat currently in my extra savings account!

    I have agreed to sell some of my friends model kits on e-bay and am charging him 25% of the profit once they've gone. I've sold 5out the 9 so for just under £150....so will have around £37 to add to this total once I've squared up with him. Not adding to my total until all items sold to save getting confused.
    £2 sealed pot....continue from 2014 piling them in until termunda full!
