Foolproof way to lose out when selling on ebay

Buy 2 books on ebay selling, read them cover to cover then, 2 years later, emerge from the confusion of recommendations.

Put up 2 low value items for sale. (Not essential to the loss but) get excited when there are a total of 16 bids on the two items. Then wonder where the money is. Calculate the costs - paypal and postage totalling £3.04 and two used envelopes. Search my ebay and paypal records and eventually find out that I’d mis-typed my email account in paypal - so I can't retrieve the funds! Ah well, at least I've decluttered and my items have gone to people that I know want them. Put it down to experience!
