Having recently moved house when going through all my old stuff I found a couple of old Mint Sauce calendars - thought to myself, let's list it on ebay... I might get a couple of quid for it.

£26.00 it sold for! Madness...

Maybe the buyer will ask for a refund and return the packaging empty.

My love for Ebay was heightened when I sold a pair of my son's trainers he'd grown out of. Adidas they were. Go on guess how much...

Stuck a set of used flared drops on ebay that I bought for £25 new, sold for £40!  I was hoping to get maybe 50-60% of my money back and now feel slightly guilty for the purchaser

i thought i might be quids in, i've still got most of the 1990s calendars, a couple of posters, and even a LTD edition print on posh paper, signed by Jo at the Earls Court fair 1997ish.  But then i saw this listing...

We had a solid gold coloured £2 coin not silver gold.

Apparently it was worth a fortune.

Followed one on ebay it went for £1.99.

You can get halfpenny coins on Ebay - 99p! My kid's grandad (don't ask) was trying to tell me it was inflation 😀
