    You lot must have either a few high value items to sell or loads of low vaule items to get to £500 or similar.

    I take it to give the value for the thread you must take off listing fees, final fees, ebay fee etc etc

    Good luck to you all.

    Yay - that's right, it's after you remove costs. I'm selling a mix of cheap as chips and more expensive items. I think having a high goal keeps me motivated to list things.

    Dontcha wanna join us???;)

    I mostly sell clothes and shoes on ebay as I have way too many of those but anything which I decide I no longer want goes on there

    DVDs, CDs and books all go on Play.com and I am just about to investigate Green Metropolis too for books

    Sold a CD on Play leaving £1.91 left for me
