Linn, I posted some in-depth eBay tips on Mudcat in the past. Search for those before I re-write any, they'll be current enough to get you started. eBay was in the thread title.

Michelle, you're too hard on yourself. There isn't an "ugly" day for you, ever (!), but just an allergy time-out from exquisite grooming. :)

I listed a couple of bulky items on eBay this morning, getting started on my autumn push. I've opted to pack them carefully and offer free shipping. Sometimes a higher-priced item can sell more easily if the shipping is free.

Another hot one today. Looks like the best use of the day is packing and listing eBay stuff.
