I don't often sell stuff but MH ordered some computer part that ended up being the wrong thing and he couldn't return it. It cost probaby $150 so I decided to sell it on eBay.
Every time I post something to sell, I get completely addicted and start scouring my house looking for other things to sell. It's like the opposite of hoarding. It's addictive though! I'm constantly checking to see what the bid is at! I think this is another aspect of my gambling addiction
Re: Do you sell stuff on eBay?

I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
I never have but I always say I want to. Do you have to pay for sellers account?
I usually try to stay from ebay because I buy stupid things just because they're so cheap.
You don't have to pay just to have a selling account. There are listing fees and selling fees. Most listings are free but if you want to make them fancier, there are some small fees (ie $.50 per picture past the first one - I think). And then they charge a percentage of the final selling price. It ends up not being much though. And if you use paypal for payment, they also take a small percentage. Again, not much.
Hehe..I do the exact same thing. We like to sell our old phones or older electronic gadgets. It makes me feel less guilty for buying all the new gadgets
This is us. Between the two of us we now have 5 iPods and one iPhone. I don't go to ebay often, but I have an addiction problem with Amazon.
I had a store. I sold luxury items. Like Burberry, coach, prada; scarves, coats, handbags, shoes and many other things. I made a huge profit, but got slammed during tax season. I still had a *** ton of things I need to sell.
Edit: I don't sell fake shiit.
This can add up for some listings I had to pay close to $7 and if the listing didn't sell I still had tp pay a majority of the fee. I had a lot of time on my hands when I was unemployed and this is what I did! It's very time consuming and yes very addicting.

Does the money not go into your bank account?
You have to request it to be sent (to your bank account). Otherwise, it will just sit there.
