    I have just completed 30 mins on the treadmill and a further 6 minutes on a bike in the gym (free) within my office building in my lunch hour. Go me!

    Congrats on the treadmill success Raphael! Blisters not good though, were you wearing new trainers by any chance?

    Nope, new socks :rolleyes: I think they were rubbing & causing friction burns rather than blisters.
    Oh well, on go the plasters & I soldier on :p

    Not yet but I'm getting there :p CDs, DVDs, kids video games, camera stuff, computer bits, few clothes, books etc. About 1 in 2 things are selling for me. One thing was a high value item, the rest is just ordinary household bits.

    My stats are:
    Items Sold: 52.71%
    Total Value Sold: £1310.70
    Total Value Shipping: £301.45
    Total Value Not Sold: £188.25

    One thing I've noticed is that fitness stuff was selling a lot better at the beginning of the year than it is now! ;)

    Raph, can I suggest a light smearing of vaseline? I have to do this whenever I buy new rugby boots, the socks just seem to rub away? It might help? Also I found the long strip of cloth plaster best as I could cut off the length I need and nip the corners so it would fit properly.

    You a lady of stats then missyg? I guess you play with excel alot or is there a hidden part of ebay I dont know about? The one thing I have noticed is that 5XL sell better than 2XL of late. Maybe because the stuff is harder to come by? :confused:

    Oddly I follow almost completely your method for selling, Day 1 Sort, Day 2 Photo, etc etc
    Some top selling though, well done you.
