      basically i need money quick soo i’m thinkin of sellin some of my real old kids-stuff my ickle cousins don’t want – i owe my older brother a bit of money and need to scrape some cash for a pile of rust that’ll get me places, my job is ok but doesn’t pay too well!

      is e-bay effective, if you have used it to sell?

        Ebays ok if you know what you’re doing, Be careful tho wait until you receive payment on items before you send em out, I’ve been mugged over a couple times on Ebay so just be a little cautious!:love:

            Yeah i have sold loads on Ebay, Just make sure you charge enough for postage as i have sold somethings and not actually made any money because i did not charge enough

                Do market research on what you are selling and see what its going for – that will give you some idea of what might be paid for it.
                Decribe it accurately and take a decent picture of it for the listing – this is very important.
                also work out what P&P is going to cost so you so you can tell potential buyers and dont end up out of pocket 😉
                Finally work out what your listing/payment fees will be and set them aside so as not to end up with a closed account due to non payment of fees [has happened to lots of folks I know]

                Ebay can be a good place to sell but always check out how the market is at the moment you plan to use it – like any auction house the prices paid can vary wildly over the year.

                    Also i have found that doing the £1 start no reserve can work wonders if what your selling is in demand, seems to get some interest and has made a bit of money for me :weee:
