I have bought 6 handbags in the past 2 weeks thanks to ebay(they are gorgeous though!),as well as 3 pairs of trousers,5 tops,a wedding ring,£150 worth of Thomas the tank engine stuff,a fake tongue ball,2 mobile phones,a dvd and prob some other stuff...........hmmmm...........i cant control it-i just love a bargain and the thrill of winning an item-especially pink and black handbags:eek:
Think i could control it if i felt guilty after but i dont.
Any comments?Anyone else the same?

we have only ever sold one thing on ebay, do you need a business account if you sell more than a few things each week?

I assumed if you were doing it as a business then thats when you upgrade to business account, but if not then the normal account is fine :D

*i may be wrong.......it happens sometimes* ;)

on ebay ...no, but paypal yes
Personal accounts on paypal can receive a limited number of credit or debit card payments per year (2 I think it is) and are assessed a transaction fee.

Only Premier and Business accountholders can receive unlimited credit or debit card payments.
so if you sell a lot on ebay, you have to open a premier account on paypal;)

I sold 7 things in Nov/Dec 2006 - then was told that I needed to get a business account before I sold more. I can't remember the wording of the mail I got but recall something about '3 items in any 12 month period' ( were all Paypal sales)

I've only got a standard account and we had over 150 transactions both buying & selling last year on Paypal! Not just on Ebay either.

LOL - just logged to find I'm a Premier account! What a div!

Re: Ebay addiction?
 
I now further recall that the last buyer used a credit card and that seemed to be what triggered the mail I got - the others must have used a Paypal account linked to a current account

I've just lost 2 items i was bidding for on ebay in the last second!! Well gutted I am. I was after a samsung digimax 3000 camera.........mine got stolen last year and the replacement I got is crap!! Won't take more than a couple of photos without draining the batteries so I wanted another like I had stolen as that was brilliant.

Oh well, keep looking eh

How long before the auction ended did you put your bid in forceten?

Re: Ebay addiction?
 
about 2 mins, but i put a max bid in, and I was winning till the last couple of seconds when it beat me by 50p!! I was winning by at least £5 up to then as well and it was only upping each time by 50p

A free snipe bids for you in the last 5 seconds - a 'paid for' snipe waits till the last 2 seconds.
