its swings and round abouts last weekend I sold 2 bundles of 9-12 month clothes and a brand new pack of sleepsuits 12-18m for the grand total of 99p each and I had already agreed the buyer collect so she came with her £3 and I handed over a big box of stuff on the same day I won a brand new dorothy perkins cocktail dress price tag was £35 for the grand total of 2.76 so all in all I am pleased. lesson to be learnt never list stuff to end during a mini heatwave because people are not there to bid and the other lesson is save your skin stay out of the sun and grab some bargains

I felt guilty a while back when I found a load of old 80s CD singles in a charity shop for 50p each - I snapped up 30 odd of them and sold them for between £3 and £10 each, with one of them going for £27!

But I suppose the shop were glad to have made the £15 I gave them anyway. I've also done similar with badly listed items on ebay but I've never had a find as good as that.

I wouldn't feel guilty, if seller is offering smth at that price he must be happy with that. Some time ago i was offering things at 99p start, nowadays I prefer not to risk anymore, and for 99p it's not worth a hassle, as you only get 40p in pocket after fees. And with new feedback rules you're risking your feedback more that ever before as well.

Things sell for what they're worth in the marketplace at any particular time. Things only sell for more if people are willing to pay more.

You should never feel guilty about getting a bargain. You were the winning bidder. If you hadn't bid, the next lowest bid would have won, so the seller would earn less, or it wouldn't have sold at all, so the seller would earn nothing.

What I'd like to know is how you get such bargains!!! I find ebay an expensive place to shop and often "lose" because people are willing to pay more than you would if you shopped around for the best price or bought at Costco or Makro.

Here's another couple...........
