    How are we doing? Little late updating but all good now... I won’t hit 140 I don’t think as unsold ones are being delisted so not counting those.. it’s changed a fair bit since I last sold, I stopped when you couldn’t leave buyers bad feedback way way back! I like how it have a pricing guide now, very smart!
    Shout out to Shish100 who has hit their weekly target whoop whoop!

    Can I join in late to the party please? I have a lot of stuff to declutter and may as well try and sell it. I did sell a couple of things before christmas and was surprised at how easy it was to list stuff on ebay so I think I'll try to do that as much as possible. I will aim to list 100 things for a start.
    Trying to keep in budget.

    Hi can I join late in the day.
    I too need to get started on moving stuff out. A reasonable target to list an item a day so to get myself motivated and not over faced.

    I didn't list anything last week, but everything auto re-listed.
    Sp far 1 item has been added this weekend.

    So far:
    2 items have sold
    2 items have bids and will sell

    This is now inspiring me to pull finger out and keep on with my target!

    How is everyone else getting on?

    Morning.
    Don't want to say this but I've beaten my target of £100 already.
    Seems people like buying craft stuff.More finishing later today.
    Must admit though that as I live on my own I must have more time to list things than people with families and jobs.

    Well done ilovetea on beating your target!

    I may have been ambitious with 5 items a week! although Sunday afternoons are now my time to eBay whilst OH heads to the gym. It's not the listing, it's the tidying, finding sorting, then listing!!

    I must remember to reduce the picture quality of the photos, they don't need to be on max, as they take forever to transfer across!

    Hi A Random Man - I generally list as an auction rather than buy it now. I set the price at what i would be happy with it going for, if it hasn't gone after a couple of re-listings I lower the price. Generally things go with at least one bid.

    I have been surprised an a couple of occasions at the price that has been paid for some things!

    I got three more items listed last night. :)

    Hello I do mine on a 7 day auction,usually finishing on a Sunday night. Photo things as I find them,write the description and up load when the time is right. Hope that helps somebody.

    Hello all updated!

    So I’ve refreshed the members list for February - if you want anything tweaked (number wise!) just give me a shout :)

    I now have an eBay corner..well, it’s a small suitcase that I can’t fold down so no more space taken up by items - everything is sitting in there when I come across things, until the time I list.
