  • Wonder if anyone has any advice on selling books. Ziffit said 8p for the first two hardbacks I entered, they are 2013 and 2012 so I was a bit surprised. Where is best recommended by you lovely lot for selling books.

    Thanks

    Well i'm having plenty views on my ebay stuff but no sales i find with Gumtree you have to list twice to get a sale still this works out at 83.00 a month roughly so just need a £17 sale to put me on target for January ....maybe no though its feb tomorrow
    So finally debt free and it feels amazing however continuing here to stay debt free.Next declutter house and body and finally swim under that waterfall x

    Another ebay sale £10.72 which puts me up to 54.09
    I've been selling jewellery ex boyfriends bought me... is that bad? haha.
    I'm putting this in a separate online savings account, and apparently to meet the £1000 goal I need to put away £78 something a month so my aim is going to be £80 a month, (That's calculated from whats in there now), but it's handy to know!

    I hope you know your capable, & brave, & significant.

  • Hiya x

    Well done everyone on your sales.

    I have made another £30 selling a small unused flat screen tv that was cluttering up my dining room.

    Total for January is now £437.97

    I have 20 listings all ready to go on ebay as soon as the free listing come on. Just a few random bits and bobs left so i doubt February will be a productive month, however i never imagined i would make so much in January. Very impressed with the total, ive paid more than 60% off a debt in a single payment today :D:D

    Signature updated.

    Good luck everyone for February

    One mans junk is another man's treasure and all that.

    I am very surprised at some of the stuff that has sold. I didnt think it would have but thought it was worth listing it.
