I have tons of crap. I just threw out twelve boxes worth of it on sunday though. Still have about 50 boxes of crap left though, maybe I should try it.

Would anyone buy a beautiful set of 6000 reciepts with my wifes credit card number on it that has been waiting to be shredded for three years?

Think I am going to sell my motrocycle to help fund that lens.

I guess I could get about $500 for it:

I love ebay. Selling something for $500-$600 now...and also craigslist...just sold a trailer for $1400 15 minutes ago.

Don't forget the starting bid will be higher than the remaining credit on the account. =]

LOL! - This is a great example of the perfect angle when taking a picture. The smoke coming out of the back of the bike? (I hope) is from the engine of the bike propelling him forward. If not, he must of had a lot of beans earlier in the day.

Sorry could not resist.

That would be rossbilly and his wife was there. Although I don't think she saw it because she was laughing too hard.

I know, see you missed a chance to make a buck. Glenda would have paid big bucks to get that in a plain brown envelope a year later. ;)

I hope you didn't miss the free listing fee month in September like I did. I've got a bunch of junk to sell but don't want to waste the listing fees. I found out about the September free fees month the last day of the month.
:(

I totally missed free listing in Sept. I've had an ebay account since 1999, or in web-terms, forever. My login is 4 digits! lol I'm mostly a buyer and never sold much at all. Some of the things I sold this week were things I'd bought there before. Bits of jewlery & stuff that I don't use.
I'm prepping to move, so next step, I think, will be things that need to get out of here before showings begin. Anyone need a 10X10 bamboo gazebo? ;)

All of the above are intact. Check. :)

Edit - I use my liver, can't get rid of that. :P

Good for you, Cindi!

Remember, eBay is your online garage sale. Just like in your driveway, it's amazing what people will buy!

I've sold some items and am now up to a gold star rating . . .

:-)

I just sold all my old DirecTV stuff on eBay -- 2 DVR Tivo receivers and 2 standard Sony receivers (sold together), along with a crappy inkjet printer and a Harmony remote with failing buttons -- and made $375! I was amazed, and that is more than I paid for all of that stuff in the first place so many years ago! (The DVRs were free after rebates, the Sony receivers were $100 each new, the printer I paid $20 for with a gift card, and the remote was $115 new.) It helps that I keep my stuff in like-new condition, with all the manuals/accessories and even the original boxes, and then I must have a knack at marketing them well on eBay with excellent descriptions and, of course, really good pictures.

I got you all beat. I bought an old pair of McIntosh MC-30 amps at a yard sale for $25. Sold on eBay for $800.
