    Wow! All my four items listed so far have bids - £17 something already on top of postage and still six days to go.

    I've got four more items ready to list on Thursday and will scour the house for more.

    I'm so glad I saw this challenge, thanks kashton!

    I've just realised that I have £9 in paypal from lightspeed surveys, so I'm going to add that......yeah...I've started!!
    I only have 3 items on so far but they are at over £100 so far. They don't finish until saturday.
    I got my children to have a bit of a springclean of their rooms yesterday, so I'm hoping there will be some things I can list in the pile they put on my bed!!

    Hi, just a quick advice question, I hope someone can help...

    I've got some used Nike trainers, they are a bit dirty, but I could was them. I was thinking of listing them. Has anyone got any experience as to whether they'd sell or not?

    Also, clothes...are people listing just summer clothing now???

    Oh...and games etc...do you think they'd be better nearer Christmas time?

    I'm trying to cut down the amount of unsold items and relisting fees. I put a load of stuff on last year and probably only sold about a quarter of what I listed.
  • Hi i'm not only listing summer clothes. I've just posted a bundle of my sons long sleeve tops to sweden, and another mixed lot including winter hat to poland.

    As for the nike trainers why don't you have a search to see if any are selling at the moment or if any have been sold recently and for how much.
    I did that with a pair of designer sunglasses ad sold them for £78.

    I've just rcieved a postal order for £15.67 so will update my sig later
