I set up my ebay account 2 months ago to sell the odd book, piece of
clothing and shoes. It was an amazing way to get rid of my unwanted items and
get some money out of it, without the hassle of a car boot. And the great thing
is you can sell anything on ebay and people will pay pretty much anything!
Today I’ve sold 3 items and I’ve manage to earn £25 from it. Not bad for a few
hours sitting in the beautiful sun that has chosen to finally make an appearance.
One lady sadly missed out on bidding on a top, but she messaged me and I’ve
sold it to her anyway. Ebay is good like that, it may seem like a greedy
selfish site where people are constantly outbidding one another to get their
greedy mitts on something they want, but really it’s the perfect way to get a bargain.
This lady wanted the top for a wedding she was going to, and who was I to deny
this to her, just because she had missed her bidding time, which had been
ongoing for 7 days. I could have relisted the item and maybe got more than the
£5 for it, but I'm not one of those greedy selfish ebayers. It is more of
getting rid of a mountain of stuff so I have money to start my life...
HOWEVER
Ebay sells everything. And everyone has a weakness. I sadly have a few:
Shoes, Bags, Jewellery and ultimately anything that sparkles. But I have
willpower and I've been able to resist the beautiful purple Christian Louboutins
that would look perfect on my size 7's. I've even resisted the Jimmy Choos, the
Fendi Selleria cream canvas and leather shopper and the countless number of
Vivienne Westwood handbags that would be my shoulders new best friend. Yes I
have willpower, but no amount of willpower could resist the Vivienne Westwood
boots. They are pure perfection. Currently the bid is at £102, but with 1 day
and 20 hours to go and already 6 bids from fellow ebayers I'm certain the bids
will keep flowing and with this the price will rise. They are on my watch list
and I will continue to watch every 15 minutes and I will be bidding in the
final minutes. They are too good to miss out on... I have my fingers crossed
that in a few days time these beauties will casually slip on my feet and stay
there for all of time.

Vivienne Westwood Boots

(Whilst writing this I got an ebay message, a lady requesting how much I would accept for that top... Maybe I should of held out for a bit of extra cash, it could of gone towards the boots!)
