I love Ebay as well but I can rarely find bargains (although I did recently pick up a great Blackberry phone for 50 quid) - every time I want to buy something it's really expensive and when I have something to sell there are lots of identical items going dirt cheap.

We've bought and sold a lot, but just recently I find its changed so much. It used to be that you'd send the item, ordinary post, and then get left positive feedback. Now its "my item hasn't arrived" so everything has to go Recorded Delivery, then the buyer is out when the postman calls and doesn't respond to the "While you were out card", and the item comes back here! I think it was wrong to remove the Seller's option of leaving a negative for a buyer, as they then leave a negative despite giving them a full refund. Yes, you've got your item back, but you don't get the postage back.

I could go on - but won't. Most of the time its good - we've had some bargains and made a fair bit too. We do use Music Magpie for selling older console games, dvds and cds, as you get your money, its free postage, and no arguing about whether they've received the item!

There is a thing going on at the moment or actually there has been for quite a while now.. it's with Lee Filters (photography filters). There's a waiting list for them of about 10 weeks. They sell for around £59 but are going on Ebay for up to £79. People order them from a host of photography sites and just wait for them to come then sell them on Ebay. This way the waiting list never really gets any shorter.

I don't sell stuff but for anyone wanting to make a bit then the Lee Filters are a way of doing it. I saw a Lee Big Stopper 10 stop filter going for £140 and they only cost £89. The ND 0.9 is a popular one too, very scarce
