    I ve got some stuff i really should get rid of for money including a couple of soundcards, track-rod end, spark plugs, engine sensor, minidisk recorder etc

    Is it worth becoming a ebay seller?

    Ebay probably has the biggest market but ppl might be wary of someone selling stuff when they've no feedback score or a low feedback score. Also it's worth noting with ebay that u pay to list something and u then pay a percentage of the sale price to ebay again oh and u have to then remember the cost of posting and packing !

    If you go the eBay route, put it on the .co.uk site, it has higher viewing figures than .ie.

    Well I took the plunge

    clicky

    I won't bother registering it on ie as I expect I'll just have to pay another listing fee for very little extra coverage.

    I thought you needed at least 10 feedback to do Buy it Now listings?

    Indeed thats what it said so I did'nt list it for Buy It Now but it gave me a second change to do so, so I did. I have 9 atm but maybe using PP cuts some slack.

    Your listings will appear on the .co.uk site if you put in UK as a place you will deliver to. I use the .ie site and 90% of my sales are to the UK.
