Do you ever sell your prizes???

I belive in karma, and a win is good fortune and too sell isnt as thats greed. Id give them away rather than sell them , and only really enter for what me or family want xxxx I gave away a flight i won early this year as i had presumed it was a pair, i could have made £200 but would rather let another mser have it than sell it xxxxxxx

I think the only thing I have sold was the rupert bear dvd that I won as little ds freaked out when he saw it and said can we sell it on ebay:rolleyes:(clever child) and it was someone of mse who bought it along with a runners up dvd prize I won, everything else is either wanted or great for presents:D

I try and enter competition for stuff that i'll be able to use or give as gifts to friends and family. Currently working on winning my christmas presents! That said i enter so many competitions that sometimes something will turn up that i dont' remember entering a comp for and I really can't use or have no room for and as money is very tight I have sold a few wins which have helped pay a bill or replaced something that I needed.

I dont' enter competitions for tickets or holidays as I wouldn't be able to go on them, although i do enter some in family's names that i know would be able to go on holiday or want to see the concert so that works out and grandparents had an amazing holiday as a result.

I have only sold one prize and that was a xbox 360 game that was a runner up prize and I did not know anyone to give it to. I have however, given away many prizes but there was one big one i gave to friends (campervan holiday and eurotunnel crossings) worth over £1500 as I did not have a license at the time. ( This was at the time I entered absolutely everything! now I am more choosy and only enter what I would like to win or if I could give it to someone who would appriciate it ).

i feel the same as the rest of the comments on here - i only enter comps if its something i could use or my mum would like, things i wouldn't normally be able to buy. for me its a hobby, not a quick way to make money, and a win big or small sometimes puts that wee bit of postivity in an otherwise humdrum day. and it does annoy me when i see people selling their wins if its something special like gig tickets or signed items - i'd rather see it go to someone who really wanted it and who would have appreciated it than someone who is just out to make a quick buck. this is just my opinion though and probably stems from my hatred for ticket touts :mad: - the amount of gigs i've had to miss out on, because they buy all the tickets and then sell them on at ridiculous prices!:mad: , is just not funny anymore!

I try to only enter comps for prizes that I want or would be able to use either for myself or as presents for friends or family

think have only sold one prize on ebay and have given a couple of other unwanted ones to people on MSE

I'd have to agree with everyone else! I enter competitions for enjoyment and if I had tickets for something I couldn't attend I would offer them to family members! It can be money saving as it can help aid your social life without spending - I must have been to about eight events from ticket wins! Makes life more varied becuase you never know what or who you might end up seeing! But selling isn't the way forward!

I would never, ever, sell or buy on Ebay.

I never enter a competition unless I want the prize either for myself, my family or friends. However, I have won a couple of instant (on pack) prizes some time ago, and no one wanted them but someone knew someone who knew someone and I did sell them for less than half the value (they were thrilled) and I used the money to buy something that was wanted for Christmas.

I tend to only go for stuff that me or my family can make use of. Have offered to give away tickets on here that I have been unable to use at short notice, but wouldn't dream of selling them on. Not really in the spirit of it all.
