    Hi,
    Lately I have been wondering about making a bit of money on the side on ebay. What would one sell though?? I was thinking of collecting lots of random stuff I don't use anymore and throwing them up on it..And adverts.ie too:D !! Is there a market for small things like cd's, books and other random stuff?? I am aware that these things will only fetch a small price on the net.. is it worth the hassle??

    Thanks,
    Hakko

    In answer to your question, I've no idea! I've a load of ****e I want to get rid of too, some of it unneeded gifts, unopened, just feeling too lazy, ebay always seems like such a hassle..

    dont think that rule refers to this particular case
    the op wants to sell stuff he already owns, not buyin to resell

    anyway for the values it all depends on the item and if there is a request for it
    but be aware , when u list something people will always try to chance it with a low offer
    its upto u to say yes or no so what i suggest if do a quick search on ebay to see for how much ur stuff sells

    Watch out for international postage charges if you're selling stuff on eBay - An Posts charges can be crippling if you're posting anything bigger than a few DVDs . And you're supposed to send things using registered post if they're paid by PayPal.
