    Well done on your ebay sales. I wish I still had things to sell!

    I hope your searches are coming back positive - or at least with things that are reasonable to resolve.

    Have a good week :)

    I guess another good thing about selling things is that you don't need to box them up and bring them to the new place!

    I hope you find out the exchange date soon :D

    We waited to buy most of our stuff until we bought a house. Makes it really exciting to buy stuff for a new place. :)
