MrsTine's post wedding Ebay challenge

jenjade

hi i have began before i found the thread.
i have listed 38 items today!! 3 have bids. also off to post 4 items from friday tomorrow.
i reuse my old padded envelopes but i tend to add it to the listing if i do it and charge a cheap price. i have been luck enough to get a load of packaging for a bloke on freecycle what was getting rid got bloody loads!!!
which it good coz i got loads to sell!

Congratulations on the wedding. I've managed to declutter and make £120 just this week! Two birds with one stone I've used old shoe boxes and old packaging from mobile phones etc saving on buying packaging and recycling. I have even more room... jobs a gud'n!:j

i recently sold a car bumper via ebay said it may cost up to £20 to post he was quite happy to pay that however it cost £11 just over i think to post but i probably spent that other £9 on pacakging and it will show when he recieved it as it was well bubble wraped.
i reuse packaging but dont charge for it if i have already got it for nothing
im gonna have to declutter as well
oh i weigh on the kitchen scales however i use this as a guide only and add maybe 10% to the weight as my scales are poo.
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE WEDDING HOPE IT WAS A GOOD NITE AS WELL LOL

Actually just thought - Maybe I should buy new batteries for my bathroom scales for any heavier items...
Just added a few more bits to be put on when I get home tonight so they finish sunday night. Best dash off to work I guess!

MrsTinks

Have just uploaded 2 items and will try to get the last one photographed tonight too... Will upload that later though - might as well space stuff out I guess
Problem is that now I'm looking round the room and OH has started saying no every time my eyes rest too long on something! :whistle:
I think if he sat still long enough I might try to stick HIM on there too

I've just caught up with some work so not had time yet tonight - but tomorrow...

scrub that - it's half price day on thursday so I'll do the photos and blurb in excel or word tomorrow then copy them over on thursday!

MrsTinks

Is it? Ooooo I'll have to get cracking on some stuff tonight then - at least taking pictures of it so I can do the descriptions tomorrow when I am stuck in a hotel again

MrsTinks

Well still more than a day to go on the first lot of things but already I've got £16.80 in bids on them! Who'd have thunk it!
I managed to list a couple of bits last night when I got home and one I only stuck on for a laugh - OH was making fun of me and said it'd never sell! My argument was it's only 5p to list it and I put it on for 10p so not like it's the end of the world
Woke up this morning and checked on it... and it's got a bid!!! :eek: Wait till I tell him that later :rotfl:
So how's anyone else going?
My plans are to list some craft stuff tonight - I have loads of wool I'll break down into little batches and tonnes of card making stuff I'd like to get shot off so might was well list it After all if I keep it it'll only gather dust...

Hi there,

I'll understand if you don't want to, but could you post or PM me your ebay username? I know this isn't very MSE, but I am getting into card making big time!

I have to get to grips with e bay. I downloaded the turbo lister thing, and don't understand it at all. Hrmmph. So i think i will try individual items, missed the listing yesterday but i am going to give it a go. Gulp.
