I have only used it for selling recently to get rid of a few things prior to moving.
I sold a dining table and chairs and a trouser press. Not bad considering I was going to give them away to freecycle

do you know you can now sell live stock on e-bay.

I sell my knitting needles, fleeces and felted items.

I didn't know that about livestock!

I used to sell soap but only do that via my website now.  I think I will be selling some old baby clothes soon though, only so long you can hold onto them and hoard  ;)

does anyone sell hatching eggs on there? i remember reading an article in a poultry magazine condemning the idea but its not the same as selling puppies in a shop window (which they still do in australia  :o :o ) is it?

We sold a whole landrover piece by piece! But I am afraid I think  internet blind selling livestock or pets should be banned by law.

My daughter buys cheap branded clothes from charity shops and sells them on ebay, she made £40.00 this week alone .

i sold lots of clothing from the sunday car boots and charity shops, my star buy was a posh handbag, I bought for £1 and sold for £17, forgot what make but it was something like channel!!! I sold clothing as its easy to pack and will not break but I would love to sell more but not sure what? I concentrated on designer names and the postage usualy covered all my costs. Some one I knew used to buy stuff and put zips in for punk clothing and she sold loads. We sold our 1972 VW camper and was very mad when a silly guest wanted more drinking chocolate for his room at the critical point!!

 I still have a few things that did not sell but they are all too small for me!!

I had a coupld of Deer skulls until the dog ate them!!!! We have bought so much from E Bay, cars, clothing, a lot of furniture and

I started using ebay in 1999 when I used to dabble in the antiques trade. Did well until the US buyers got the jitters after 9/11. Since then have bought and sold many vehicles and even more parts of vehicles, lots of smallholding type stuff and most recently have been buying and selling hatching eggs. It's a bit up and down with prices but it's a handy way to get a few quid in. It's not always a cheap place to buy stuff though.

Depends what you call livestock? I have bought stick insects and giant african land snails from ebay. You can also buy fish but they are very expensive. I bought hatching eggs last year. They all hatched. I was pleased and surprised.
