  • I've got bids on 3 items!!!! :j :j I'm hoping for one of those last minute rushes! Not sure I'm going to make a dent in my target though!

    You're all scaring me actually because it sounds like you've pretty much got xmas sorted! I have lots of pressies and stocking fillers trhat I bought during the year but have yet to sort out the bulk. I normally start with the October wage though so that will be next week. I will work out what I'm going to spend and post that on my signature too.

    Have a good neutral day everyone!!:D :D

    Thought I was striding ahead with Xmas until I realised that the Nintendo Wii that my DS has asked for is only out of stock everywhere and most retailers are closing their pre-order lists!!!

    So in a moment of panic I had a look on Ebay and ended up getting carried away with the bidding and ended up paying £241 + £20 P&P:eek:

    I am really annoyed with myself as they are now in stock on Amazon for the normal retail price of £179 free del. So I have bought another one with the intention of re-selling the Ebay bought one.

    I know am not going to put a reserve on it and will just go with the auction price as I feel it is unfair to set one of those high buy it now prices that some people do for items in high demand. I just would like back what I paid for the Ebay one if I can but if not then I've learned my lesson.

    Ebay Friend or Foe?
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
