Ebay Challenge for March

LilDevil

I'm up to £130.29 :j but some haven't paid yet :rolleyes: so it should go up. I took advantage of the free gallery picture by relisting 19 items that hadn't sold, so hopefully a few of them will sell too - I haven't deducted the re-listing fees as some of them should be refunded if the item sells.

I've had to transfer some of my Paypal funds over to cover postage, but not sure when it will come through due to the bank holiday (arranged transfer on 18 March)

Another small profit on one Play.com sale and bids on two ebay items

Phew!!! In total I've made £412.24 - but once I take off the costs it's £310.22. I'm going to list my final items tonight/tomorrow as I think we're allowed to count anything LISTED this month.;) Will join the challenge again next month, although I'm not sure how much more stuff I can find to sell

Anyways...can't wait to see how much money people make on the final count up.

A few of my things have been listed twice and not sold - so off to Oxfam this week.:rolleyes:

JesaRose

All items paid for and posted now and one DVD sold on Play.com. Don't think I am going to make the target but I'm pleased with the amount of money i have made from other things plus this during March.

Have updated totals in sig

Well done Little Chicken and Jessarose - How is everyone else doing?
My items are finishing tonight. I'll just reach my target of #100 I think - I made #65 already and have bids on for about #43, so once I've taken off all fees that should be about the one hundred I was hoping to make.
Of course, I'm secretly hoping for a last minute bidding war

I don't have any other items on ebay but do have 100 listings on Play.com so unless some of those sell today or tomorrow I won't be meeting my target.

Nevermind - I will still play in April if you are doing a new thread

bigpaws23

Good luck with that, JesaRose.
Can anyone tell me the main differences between selling on Amazon and Play.com? I sell things on Amazon and I quite like it, but I find the fees to be fairly high. How does Play.com compare do you think?

Will there be an april ebay challenge? Did a search but found nothing

LilDevil

I think all told I've made about £135 (spreadsheet at home and I'm at work, so can't give an exact figure!) - last lot didn't sell at all well.

I've been reading an interesting discussion on the Ebay boards about postage etc and I think that may have been a problem (I was only offering RD or SD after stuff going missing), so may take advantage of the free gallery listing tonight and whack them all on again on normal 1st class - I'll get OH to post them and get receipts - that should cover anything going missing!

Well, I've made the sum total of....zero! Think that has to go down as one of the worst challenge results ever! But in my defence, I have moved house and had a baby this month, plus I had no internet access from the 12th to the 28th following the house move, which didn't help!

I'll probably skip April's challenge due to lack of time, but will be looking out for another one in May! Well done to everyone who's made a fortune and got rid of mountains of tat!

P.S. Welshlassie - found those bags the other day - now just need to find something to post them in!
