isn't ebay great!
« on: November 14, 2006, 20:06:19 »
I bought 4 12v spotlights off of ebay, brand new for 15 quid all in. Fitted two, then put the remaining two with the two old ones out of the caravan on Ebay, the old ones sold for a quid each, the new ones which i technically paid 7.50 for the pair then proceeded to sell for .......25,00 quid!!!!!!!!!!! so all in all, i have got a brand new set of spotlights for free and made 20 quid profit!!!

Cheers

The place is populated by idiots :evil:

Someone please buy my Capri so I don't have to put it on E-Bay again and deal with all the cretins out there.

Never been able to sell much through ebay or for the price it is worth. I dunno how others make money.

Someone please buy my caravan before it goes on ebay again in the new year.

Always buy cheap stuff and end up selling it for more!!

BIG BOLD writing, that is just to the point, dont drag it out!

Just put the bullet points and spell things correctly!!

If you search stuff by spelling stuff slightly wrong its amazing the barains you can get!!

Make it look interesting too, dont just put loads and loads of normal text, people wont read it anf click to the next item!!
