About Time!! Lol:t


Official MoneySavingExpert Insert

From 00.01 on Wednesday 22nd August, the cost of listing items for auction on eBay* will be cut in half for the day.

You'll still need to pay a final value fee if the item sells (a percentage of the selling price). Read full terms and conditions.

* Using these links helps the site stay ad-free and free to use, as they’re ‘affiliated links’ which invisibly take you via commercial price comparison services like Moneysupermarket or Find, which then pay this site per click. You shouldn’t notice any difference, the links don’t impact the product at all and the editorial line (the things I write) is NEVER impacted by the revenue. If it isn’t possible to get an affiliate link for the best product, it is still recommended and still included. For the sake of transparency go to ebay.co.uk for an unaffiliated link.

    This Wednesday, when you list an item on eBay.co.uk using the Auction-style format in an eligible category, you will pay a half-price Insertion Fee on every item you list!
    Terms and conditions apply. Click here for full details.
    Regards,
    The eBay.co.uk Team

    Woohoo!!

    More market saturation and depressed selling prices, but a good opportunity to get some relist credits in the bank!

    I for one will be putting all my usual 'cheap day listing' stuff up (sorry, I obviously mean my highly collectable object' d'art)..but I won't list anything sensible for a few days either side.

    Actually I've been waiting for a cheap day as I have some large value items that I want to try..looking at completed listings these items finish at wildly different prices. One item has finished as low as £3.99 and as high as £59..so I want to have a high start price just so I can see if I get any interest.

    Off to load my turbo lister :j

    I can't really as the items I have here are very unusual and I would either be giving my id away or be seen as advertising. I've been watching completed listings now for months trying to work out why some sold and some didn't..and am no closer to working it out. However, the stuff I have is all circa 1970 and boxed/still wrapped as I'm clearing a house for someone that hasn't seen the light of day for many decades.

    Bother..I just found one thing that I donated to a charity shop might have had a slight value..one of those old pineapple ice buckets. Well, hopefully the hospice will benefit from that, but I honestly didn't think it worth listing.
