  • Finally made a start on this (very behind!)

    Got some ebay listings live at the moment & more put aside to list so hopefully will get a bit more soon!
    Sell £1000 (#28): £36.98/1000

  • I haven't done very well, I was waiting for my Eb@y bill to come through before I list any cash made. Now need to take off postage costs but I doubt I've made £20:o
    new challenge?

    Put me down for a grand too. I'm hoping to do that by my birthday which is mid July.
  • Haven't posted for a while, it's been a bit slow. Two collectable toys on eBay, £12, and a pile of stuff on Facebook (a compact, a bag clip, a hot air styler, a necklace, and the first of what I hope is lots and lots of books) £19 -- that's a total of £31 for my pile.

    I was looking at the eBay listing challenge and thinking that I must do better on taking advantage of free listings. I've only got about 5 things on eBay right now.
    Make £2023 in 2023: (all decluttering), current total £2860 me, £330 for friends & family, £468 charity donations.

  • Having said "oh it's really slow" I had an awesome day yesterday. Someone contacted me about some software I had on eBay saying 'are you near me, will you do a cash deal' -- and I basically said 'no, against eBay guidelines, but I have another similar one that's not on eBay yet...' and he came straight round and bought that one. Plus another expensive eBay sale (shoes that hubby bought that didn't fit and he never sent back GRRR but at least they're sold now). And some more of my old unmatched china. Total after costs a whopping £72!

    Just goes to show that you should keep going; those shoes had been on eBay since November, and I had reduced them a bit but not that much.

    I've put a page for each months sales into my annual budgetting spreadsheet - the number of pages for each month is now getting to a point I may have to look at combining some next year :o

    (this year is running with a page for each of the following every month : regular payments, grocery spends, toiletry spends, cleaning spends, anything else spends, sales)
