    Hey!

    Great idea - can I join in please? I'd like to raise £1000 and am starting by listing 10 items this evening. Really looking forward to seeing how we all get on!

    All of my first 11 listed items have now sold :beer: . Have just spent ages listing loads more. Not sure how much I have made tonight but 1 of my DVDS went for £7.50 so I think it should be about £25

    Not bad.

    :rolleyes: :rolleyes:I have listed 27 items so far. Some craft,some cross stitch,some beanies but concerned as it costs to list and if they dont sell,i am loosing money:(
    Does anyone have any good advice on this:rolleyes:
    I am going to aim towards 1000 items all starting at 99p and figure they are worth nothing in my cupboards:p

  • Hi
    I'd like to join in with this one too if that's ok. I have listed a few items this morning as I have a few bits and pieces left over from doing party plan and have sold quite a bit recently although I won't count that in with my totals. Does anyone have a copy of the excel spreadsheet they could maybe send me to try and keep track of it all? I'd really appreciate it if anyone has a spare minute to send it.

    i'll update when my items sell although one already has a bid and another has one person watching so i'm hopefull that it will sell.

    My overall aim is to make £1000 to go towards clearing my overdraft
    Debts all paid!!!:j
  • Just listed another 5 items so fingers crossed

    I'm off the mark at last :j :j :j Today I decided I really must make a start on this, so I relisted a pair of boots that have been on there for 2 x 10 day auctions and not sold (at £11.99); I relisted them as a buy it now at £13 and they sold within 20 minutes :beer: Woohoo !!! Forgot to mention, they only cost me £10 in the sales!!

    I have listed 2 brand new pairs of shorts too and now I've got the bug again so I'm gonna keep going until ds decides he's had enough of playing on his own :o:o (He's playing in the lounge near me so I can chat to him at the same time ;) ) :D

    All seems to be going well at the moment, have bids that more than cover the fees on only 2 of the 12 items I've listed but loads of watchers on the others so there is hope for a bit of profit, gonna list a few more pieces now. Cant take a decent photo of my tiara so I suppose i'll have to keep that nevermind, but cant take one of dd and hers was only a tenner so dont mind putting it on, oh well it'll have to keep for a car boot sale instead.
