  • Lol, cheers. Maybe I will just take them all then! I will put all the addresses and the recorded stickers on before I get there, so they will only have to charge me.
  • Pennywise, that's quite amusing as well! I suppose the little embarrassment will be worthwhile!

    Right, I have just listed 10 items on Ebay towards my 5000 total ... keeping my fingers crossed for good prices.

    Good luck everybody else.

    Well, i've now found the cable for camera but camera battery is dead as i haven't used in in so long, just glad to know where it is to be honest!

    Anyway, I felt compelled to list a couple of things on ebay so they get viewed over the weekend, I'll put the photos on tomoro.
    There's not much value to the items (books) but at least it's a start!

    hope you're all getting listing & have lots of lovely bids ;)

    I've got 15 items all lined up and ready to go on Turbo Lister. My friends at work were laughing at our little challenge (in a nice way, they think we are mad!!) - they will be laughing on the other side of their faces when I am nearly £1,000 better off ;) :rotfl: .

    I'm glad I did all my listing in work time, it took me all morning!! I think I will do the same tomorrow :D .

    Hi,
    Would love to join in - I need to declutter the loft and this might motivate me. Think I will aim for £1000. I have rescued some of my daughters clothes that she as ready to take to charity shop. Will list them later. BTW what is Trubo Lister.

    Hi, Please can I join? I already sell stuff on ebay but in a very haphazard, now & again, sort of way. I'm hoping this will give me the motivation I need.
    I'm going to aim for £1,000.
    BTW jess, Turbo Lister is a downloadable tool which enables you to list stuff very quickly. It's free from the ebay site.
