Using e-Bay to fundraise

Has not been the greatest success yet, it will take a while to get up and running with selling - I have only bought items before. I am going to list the better items leftover from the table top sale at the coffee morning. Normally it would have gone to the charity shop but I am going to give this a go.

I have been working out the best place to take the photos. I then started by listing a pair of trousers I bought for one of the boys that never got used. It took a while, I had to make a picture of a word document giving information about trailwalker and Life's Voyagers. I then needed to work out what all the options did thatt you coudl chooses when selling; a number of time I went to look at a preview only to loose great chunks of text that I had typed in! Finally got the trousers listed and I thought I would have a go at a second item by copying the first and adapting it, unwittingly I was revising the trousers and morphing them into a girls denim jacket, I got thoroughly confused but worked out what happened eventually.

It has now been bid upon if it stays at this price I will just about cover my costs after the debacle of setting up, hopefully in the future it will go a lot smoother!
