    Quick question for you regarding ebay (could probably find it on there somewhere but hey thought you could probably answer in terms I will understand!) Have been thinking hard about how I could make some extra money and I have always been quite artistic, paint canvases, make costume jewellery that kind of thing. Anyway..............I have never sold anything on ebay before, am a bit afraid I will do it wrong, but if I was could I just list these items individually or do I need to do an ebay shop thing? Can you tell me what the charges for listing on ebay are and what happens if I list something that doesnt sell? Do I still get charged?

    Ohhhh sorry just realised I have asked you about 90 million questions!!!

    Etsy is starting to grow over this side of the pond (it's us based) and is purely for crafted stuff and supplies, I love browsing but don't sell or buy often so don't know too much about the pricing structure and what not but well worth a look into. There's also a similar type site called DaWanda and it's european based but I don't usually browse there, again, might be worth a look!

    A lot of handmade stuff doesn't sell too well on ebay due to people mainly looking for a bargain, people buying on the other sites appreciate the work put into something more.

    £9.62 yesterday for me from Amazon, Lightspeed and ebay. No luck on the b!ngo, boo!

    Not much happening here, got a £5 Boots voucher through on email but that's about it. Doing lots of clicking on Mutual Points and iPoints as have almost got enough for £20 cash in on the former and £30 M&S vouchers on the latter!

    Thoroughly fed up with eBay so need to come up with some new ideas....

    :wave:
    did food shop in co-op (ohh i cant wait til tescos opens) and i got £5 off, no idea why i didnt have a coupon or anything, lady behind till said oh you get £5 off! :D music to my ears!

    i sell on etsy and its much better than ebay for selling handmade stuff. its 20cents a listing but you can have as many pics as you like and a listing is up for about 4 months so you get your moneys worth!

    Nice having a day off, i have a pile of stuff am ebaying. i dug out my old gamegear and i've just become hooked on sonic again! lol!
