    Wow! Wish they'd send me a tenner lol.

    Buyer left me neutral feedback which is better than a neg! I let a comment under it in my defence but will leave it at that...

    Got 4 things to post here but have been really slack on my listings! Hubby to be just gave up smoking so we're a little sidetracked at the minute. Will try and do some Friday, I have a rare free day...

    Incidently, some of my precious profits have gone towards dd's b'day in March lol!

    And welcome new ebayers, may your bidders be generous and your paypal fees be few...

    Just listed a maggie dress on there i originally got it off ebay, beautiful dress,but i just dont think it is me, so seeing if i can recoup what i have spent on it, plus all my other wedding bits i dont need. Hubby is glad I am trying to recoup the costs.
  • I've been a bit lax in the last couple of days. Only have 3 items listed at the moment but have been paid for everything I've sold. I just need to take a trip to the post office tomorrow so I can update my total.

    OH is away this weekend so will have some time on my hands to put some effort in!

    I've just found the shoes I wore for my original wedding - might list them as vintage - lol - they are Bally ones so I might make a little bit on them.

    Don't think OH would like that very much and from what I remember they were very uncomfortable by the end of the day.
    They were my something blue last time.
    Something old is my grandmothers wedding ring - I think 60 years would count.

    Have updated sig with latest total. Still haven't listed anything else - smacks self on wrist but have found loads of things that can go.

    well my total bids so far are up to £113.24, plus at lot of these items still have a few days to go, so hopefully i will have more than this by the end of the auctions. I am having a clear out of my wardrobe this week and anything i dont wear is going on eBay , i cant believe how much stuff i have that is brand new that i dont wear.

    Well done! :T
    2 of my 3 items sold last night. I didn't make a great deal but every little helps - lol
    I haven't even dared sort out my wardrobe and I know there's some more stuff in the garage. I've sold quite a lot of items but the pile doesn't seem to be going down at all :eek:

    Just started sorting out my wardrobe too, it is scary the amount of stuff i have, so cluttered, Hubby gets out of the military next month and he wants it cleared to make room for at least some of his stuff lol.

    Goign to list 4 more items tonight, trying to space things out, so i dont get confused with what is being posted where.
