The Ebay thread

So after searching for an ebay thread and after finding some things related to ebay but nothing specific, I decided to start this topic  

Didn't know where to put it so here will do as it is technological

Been getting a few of my christmas presents off Ebay, gran said "£100, go mental"
So got some penguin shoes £13 , penguin hoody £30, lyle and scott jacket £40, FCUK belt £15, and thats just from her for Crimbo  
Also recently Dad brought me a lyle and scott top for £15 off there ermmm and just brought a topman top for £1 haha

 just brought a tompan top for £1 haha

Wow ! Is that like a Topman Top 

Buying a guitar off it as we speak. Might get a new effects pedal as well. See how Im feeling.

Ahh cool, how much?

I do all the time.

I smoke 'em.

Used ones.

And how's that working out for you?

Never used Ebay or any online buying for that matter it just doesn't seem safe to me.

Just picked up The Mary Whitehouse Experience series 1 & 2 DVD from ebay, can't be real, never released on DVD, but worth the risk for £5.

Nothing unsafe at all as long as you're vigilant. I never sell anymore cause it costs too much, Gumtree and Adtrader work better for me there.

I buy guitar stuff on Ebay all the time, any rare CDs and T-Shirts and stuff.

I bought 12 pairs of Football Socks yesterday for £8 including p + p.

I am an E-bay nut ! I'm a record and CD collector and have spent 1000's on there, also made a few bob selling things also bought eductional stuff on there as well as Bev (wife ) is a teacher.
Listing is free as long as you start at 99p or less. you can always set a reserve (which does cost !)!
free listing this weekend also but not sure if it covers everything or items over 99p start !

i find it quite expensive though. I sold my old guitar for £250 and got charged £25.

Aha bummer

We're looking to sell some stuff, but i don't think many people will buy old clothes etc... although they are kinda nice
+ Its a lot of effort cleaning up stuff

I know if I sell a damaged car for around the 1000.00 mark it costs me 28 quid on a 2500 grand repaired car its about 37 quid, which in essence is not too bad when you compare it the auto trader and your reaching out to a much bigger audience.

Where's Smigger when you need her.....she's the E-Bay Queen 

I'm going to have to start selling stuff again. Especially with the eBay app on the iPhone. Makes it dead easy to keep track, etc.

My mates got a boss blag going on from the place he works as well. Getting certain stuff really cheap (buying it by the way! ) and flogging it on eBay for about 50% profit.

I've bought my previous two cars off of E-bay with mixed results but the it's really cheap when selling vehicles as you can have loads of photo's and pages of info of the vehicle on E-Bay as opposed to the likes of Auto trader where you pay about 40quid for a 2" square box packed with abreviated phrase's !

I've got a couple listed on there at the moment and even considering the time of year they are exceeding my expectations on what I'd believed they would make, guess it can be hitty missy at times but as I sell in volume rather than hold out for proper money if I don't make as much as I wanted on one car I may make exceed what I want on the next, so it never concerns me as I always make a healthy profit.
