    So sorry about this I am all embarassed!!!

    Oh PLEASE don't be embarrassed, you've done so much for us with setting up this challenge.

    I followed your instructions and column 7-11 are now fine, 12-17 are still wrong and 18 is now fixed :mad:

    Hmmmmm, spread sheets were never my strong point LOL! I can adjust 12-17 by hand; even I can manage that :D

    If you get the little + and pull it down over columns 12-17 does that fix it? I honestly don't mind sending you the corrected version if you want bigpaws?! x:D thanks for being so lovely!:A

  • Come to this pretty late but I'd love a copy of the spreadsheet. Am intending to offload lots of kids toys but so far sorted them into a huge pile. Now I just keep looking at it not wanting to start the long process of dealing with the listings. Need to tho as back to work on Monday and wont have much time after that - hope to have all listings made up and saved ready to load about half dozen each week.

    How do i pm you to give you my email - never done it on the site as yet.

    Well done to everyone recouping money thus far.

    My problem is that selling the kids old toys is really to make room for more as they have so much they have been threatened with no visit from santa unless they clear out!!!! Won't technically be making money to pay for Christmas generally but hope to get a little.
    If only I could stop finding good bargains on this site, I would save a fortune! :rotfl:

  • Thanks! Some of you guys are doing brilliantly! Do you just sell odds and ends from around the house, or do you make/buy wholesale?

    hi miss jennipenni and welcome ! ! All my profit has been made from having a good old clearout. Amazing what you can do when you sort out!!! I'm really pleased with my amount up to now. Occasionally if I see a bargain, I might buy it to put on eBay but mainly just selling old stuff/stuff I don't use anymore. Best of luck!

    i regularly buy items on ebay and sell them back on it again for good profit

    if you have taken the time to list an item on ebay its best to do it properly with no spelling mistakes in the title lol
