    I did 68 last night, was another mamoth effort, but a lot of them were relists so not too bad!

    Currently 20 of my 107 items are selling, and have tonnes of watchers on the ones that end on Sunday night, hoping for at least £100 from the 40 that end on Sunday.
  • Hello- is it too late to join? I have only just joined this site and its Fab!! Such brilliant ideas to inspire!

    I list a lot.....
    but what is turbo lister?

    I've never used it.

    What do you do.....

    Do you have to pay anything?

    How does it differ from scheduling something?

    Turbo Lister?
    You download it, it's completely free. You just list everything on the program, then send it "live" when you want to. So you can list from say Friday to Wednesday, then all your items can go online on Thursday, or when you're ready for them. Fantastic if you do your listing at night but don't want auctions ending at night.
    That makes no sense, there is a demo on eBay if you go into the site map

    Sorry, I'm completely useless, but it does really help, when it's not having a hissy fit ;)

    Hi all, How do you lot manage to list 31 or 68 or hundreds of items in one go???!!! It's all I can do to list 3 or 4 at a time!!
    Anyway I took you peoples advice and listed some books on Amazon instead of on ebay, and lo and behold!! one of them has sold!! £11 profit!! Well chuffed, so thanks everyone! :)
    It was also the one book that I was convinced wouldn't sell in a million years!!

    Was that 'o' a typing error or not ?
    just go onto ebay and put "well worn" as a search term :eek:

    But it was nothing like that, honest !
    Between Jun '08 and Jun '09 I made £5K matched betting
    Between July '09 and Dec '10 I spent it all
    So I'm back to do it again
    :rotfl:
  • Ok, just found out I need to have some pretty serious dental work done. so need this challenge more then ever!

    2000 items at 99p here I come!

    how does everyone work out the postage/profits etc I was thinking of doing the postage online? and just keeping the profit in my palpay accounts?

    does the online postage work? I think I would actually feel guilty if I didn't use my local post office!:o I know that's sad but they are really nice.

    so to get to the point! does online postage work ? or how do you work out the profits?
