so I am always looking to upgrade or add stuff. I'm always on ebay checking it out. So in november I saw an ad for tent and camping equipment. It listed all the stuff and there was a lot and finished by saying selling due to emigration. I was a poor ad really. they could have made more of what they were selling. Anyway to cut a long story short, I won the Auction at £122 and I think I was bidding against the sellers really, not that I mind. So After checking out the stuff and keeping what I need I have sold the rest in dribs and drabs (but waited for the warmer weather) and the account now looks like this

paid out £122

stuff sold so far £380

stuff kept,quite a few thing that cost between £5 and £30, you know plated cups kids sleeping bags power transformer etc

 big stuff kept     Outwell Virginia 5

Oh happy days

Selling goods on Ebay has it's advantages as the advert goes out to a wider audience but it's when you come to pay the final valuation fees I find that I'm not so well off as you thought I was. I know that Ebay has to make a profit in order to operate but I find that it's a really good place for buying but not so good for selling.
