Great job Robin {up}

I see some of your items are doing very well!

I must just reiterate though, that I think you could raise higher figures if you utilise your free picture option on EBAY. :wink: You have some great lots, but buyers are having to bid in the dark as they cannot see what they are buying :?

I know you mentioned before that your buyers still bid a lot without seeing the items, but you currently stand to sell some great lots very cheaply - remember, you have to cover your costs!

To give you an idea, I sold 13 items on EBAY just before Christmas and raised just over £500, which is over £38 for each lot, and this was mostly just by listing a picture with the item! Sorry, but it DOES make a difference!!!!

I am not trying to criticise you in any way, but I have gained a little experience in charity collecting over the past year or so! Anyway, the very best of luck to you - you are collecting for a great cause {thumb2} {clap} {clap} {clap} {clap} {clap} {clap}

ian, believe me, this i know. but i cannot get my camera to work for me. its driving me up the wall. hopefully i can get it going for the next round of auctions.

while ive not been part of the fanmail community, ive been dealing on eBay for the last few years and i know the difference pics make, but also astounded by how much people pay for items.

bring on the bids from fanmail world!

a couple of months ago i think. its been sitting in a pile of signed cds and dvds that im planning to place online at the same time.

out of interest, are you planning on updating your charity success list any time soon? its an extremely valuable to us charity fundraisers. im trying to get my own together to place on the site, but its taking a while, as no doubt you will know...
