Ebay is the best way to get rid of things.

Try downloading the Turbolister (its an ebay regulated download). I found this a couple of weeks ago and its so much quicker than going through ebay directly.

Awww bless your dog, hope his eye gets better soon.

:beer:

yay finished the kennel....dog is now asleep on the sofa tho .oh well.

well done on your viking order amy- nice added bit of cash you werent expecting!!
Hope your dog gets better soon nicki. Im vegetarian too, although sometimes that costs me more as there isnt so much choice of cheaper options-ditto on the chicken btw!
I also make jewellery but mine is wedding jewellery, if your anything like me you've got to be in the mood to make it. had a nice order about 3 months ago for 9 pendant and earring sets from a local wedding shop, lovely order but really wasnt in the mood to do it as they were all the same, got a bit boring!

I did download turbo lister but it all looked a bit confusing to me. I didn't really give it a fair chance so I'll have to give it another go, I might use it for my odd bits but not the jewellery...will have to see. I've trained myself to not buy things quite well, but I do probably spend too much on jewellery components still. I have a LOT so I'll have to use what I've got before I buy any more.

The operation was a while ago but unfortunately it didn't work, the poor boy still has gunky eyes, I forget what it's called but part of his eye doesn't work properly (he isn't blind or anything at least). I say boy, he's going to be 10 in October!

Do you like quorn Mabel? If so I'll have to keep an eye out and let you know when it's cheap. It was £1 for a bag of chicken pieces a while back and I particularly like those so I stockpiled them. I like them with salad, I've got a lot growing in the garden so it makes for a cheap meal/sandwhich etc

Making jewellery started as an accident, but I'm so glad I discovered it. That said everything on ebay has been a bit slow lately, I think it's starting to hit everyone. If I ever get married I know who to come to . Have you posted any of your jewellery on craftster? I have an etsy shop too, it's cheap to list things and lots of people on craftster buy from etsy shops. I sold 4 of one particular necklace from people seeing it on craftster. I should actually post some of my own stuff on there soon...

Hi Nicki,
yes i love quorn-i seem to live on it, that would be great if u see it on offer anywhere and i'll do the same.
I havent tried ebay -i have my own website but to be honest i dont think wedding jewellery is ever going to do very well on line because the brides like to try it on with their dress, thats why having it on sale or return on wedding shops seems to do ok for me. Have you tried approaching any shops? i had a look at your ebay shop and i think it would do very well in a record/music shop-might be worth an approach, much easier than ebay listing lol!!

Hi everyone. Ebay are having a 5p listing day on thursday.

Will keep on the lookout for quorn then )

I've actually had three or four people offer to stock my jewellery, but I'm too scared to do anything about it. I don't really know how it would work and I don't want to get ripped off. I was going to list some stuff on ebay tonight but seeing the 5p listing day I think I'll wait til Thursday, that will also give me time to find some more of my own bits to sell. I've found a few items of clothing which I should probably wait for winter to sell to get a better price... unworn boots and the like. I've got an unworn Joe Browns summer dress which I hope will sell for £15 plus, they seem to sell quite well.

hi all, today has been a struggle a bit too hot for me,
went to morrisons and the garage was closed no pumps being redone!! so had to drive to tesco filled up and it cost me £46!!! scary petrol costs me more than food in a week!!!
then went to the post office closed due to staff illness.... drove to another to post parcels, should have come home and gone to bed but went to garden centre and guess what???!
no strawberry plants left!!! AAHHHHH
having a store cupboard tea but will need to go food shopping soon not much for my lunches!!

I sell my jewellery on a 60% to me 40% retailer basis , I just type out a list of stock/prices duplicate it and the retailer let's me know if something sells ( I go to each shop once a month to check stock etc. As long as you put something on the stocklist to the manner of ' retailer is responsible for any loss or damage' and get them to sign it you'll be fine . Go for it girl!!!

moneymabel

oh jen what a rubbish day !!! It can only get better tomorrow LOL ! Its too hot for me as well- think I was an Eskimo in a previous life .
