Aye but have to take the £10 listing and then probably Paypal but its going in the right direction but the bidding war is on a childs toy and the laptop is at a smaller amount - ebayers are weird lol!
I will chant for you
Nobble Noggins Pesky Patalogue - catalogue did not rhyme0 -
lol rayday
yeh ebay is wierd sometimes. i once sold some shoes on there-they werent new, i did put that in the listing aswell, and a massive bidding war got going and they went for a ridiculous amount! then you put sumat on that you think is worth a few bob, and you have to let it go for peanuts!
bizarre!!! :rolleyes:

right, you know when i transfer ebay funds into my bank account? well does it charge you a % for this aswell as the % it charges when someone pays you? i know if youre transferring less then £50 it charges you 25p, but i dont know if it also charges you again???
like, if ive got £10 in there and i transfer it to my bank, will £10 end up in my bank? or £10 minus whatever they take out?
hmmm.... the wonders of ebay!0 -

Hi .... (relative newbie here - but I know a thing or three about eBay). If we're talking Paypal - then no they don't charge anything for transfering over £50 to your bank a/c :T
I guess I'm too late to join your 4 week challenge but it's an excellent idea and I've a capital one card I'd like to kick into touch so I think I'll set myself a 4 week challenge anyway!Proud to be dealing with my debt!

hi nog n rayday, not sure about the ebay fee, it boggles me brain lol i just conveniently "forget" about the fees and put it all towards the debt, with a little help from the change jar;)
feeling a bit better now, just depressed at the thought of having to clean downstairs... had a mad cleaning spree yesterday, did all 3 bedrooms, bathroom and toilet, then when oh came in from work i left downstairs to clean today, just not quite got round to it yet!:D
bonus of cleaning yesterday tho was i found 1.26 in loose change, all adds up!:cool:
p.s use stardrops for cleaning - cleans absolutely everything and its as cheap as chips:DLBM 29/07/ 07

I have never used star drops where do you get them from and what can you or can't you use them on? I like the blue flash I dilute it down into a spray bottle and use it as multisurface cleaner I just like the smell!0
