I give things away on freecycle hoping that the people that pick the stuff up are going to use the items personally and not sell them on.

I have given things on freecycle, untill I saw somebody selling an item I gave on a car boot, I am more careful who I give to now, there are some cheeky so and so's on there too.

i used to buy baby things in second hand shops,wash them,use them then sell them on....i got a gro bag for £1.50 and sold it for £14 after Jack had used it for 6 months!(it was a mothercare one).
Second hand shops sell baby things really cheap as they dont know what they are really worth and alot of the volunteers in the ones down in Accy dont have children so they price them very low because they are no value to them personally(if that makes sense?).

i found a louis vuitton notebook for 1.50 in a charity shop i put it on ebay and got quite abit more cant remember how much though.

Ebay are trying to stop that as well now. I had an email about it from them. Something about giving less priority in searches to people who have a history of high postage

You could accept payment by bank transfer but it does mean that you have to give them your bank details and hope they aren't going to do a Jeremy Clarkson on you. But having said that, you give out those details every time you write a cheque.

BTW Misskitty, do you still want to buy some junk? ;)
