    Good luck Rachmac3!

    In an hour I managed my first 7 listings with 2 more items to list. 1 item has already sold, which is very exciting. I used the recommended price for similar items rather than price high. I want them to be enjoyed by someone else and for me to have the space in my wardrobe back.

    Well done you two!! I managed 1 because things needed ironing, then I noticed a mark on something, I had to move a bed to get to a plain wall for photos 🤣
    I just really needed to list something to break through that barrier. The photo is not great but it's done. I've started the process and have a little pile of things to list next on the chest of drawers ready. I have another meeting now but confident I can get another few things listed later today. It's really grey here so awful lighting but the sun is meant to come out this afternoon so I plan to photograph a few more things in better light then I can list them this evening if I run out of time.

    Yay - go us! And huge yay to @Wanna_Bee_Free for the sale! 👏

    I listed 4 things on both V1nted and flebay and another one just on fb00k marketplace. That's about my limit for today - I shall maybe do some more tomorrow.

    No sales in any of them yet, but several 'favourites'

    I bookmarked things on eBay instead, clearly not got my head round this mysterious 'listing' things. 

    I have taken note of your points about staging. Also fairly key to add measurements and a start price you would be happy with for auctions.

    I've listed 5 things now, and have found quite a bit more to list over the next few days. I didn't realise I had so many cheap dresses I'd never worn!😄
