Media Communication Project: Everything is eBay!

Firstly, I would just like to apologise for not writing a post in over a month!! I have been so tied up with uni work, including a 4000 word ethics report which was as fun as it sounds (not very).

My course has required me to create a media communication project. The project can take the form of whatever we wish, so I have decided to create a community blog, called "Everything is eBay". It won't be part of this current blog, but I will let everybody know the link to the new blog when it's up and running. It will be up and running within the next week, but before it is, I wanted to let you all know what it will involve, and hopefully you will all enjoy the project and help me out :)

The aim of my project is to basically help people save lots of money! I will be comparing high-street fashion prices with eBay prices, and posting my finds up on my blog so that you can all make the most out of what I discover. If you're a student like me, I know you will appreciate this so I urge you to get involved in it and become part of my fashion based, money-saving community!

The blog will involve three separate parts:

  • Daily Updates
  • The Weekly Finds
  • COMPETITION - "Everything on eBay"

DAILY UPDATES: Starting at the end of this week, everyday I will be posting daily updates which will inform you of what deals are around on the day. For example if there is a "3 items for £8" in Topshop, or if I find an item on eBay which I think is worth grabbing, then I will post this.

THE WEEKLY FINDS: In this section I will post the best fashion items of the week, based on what I have found on eBay.


Along side of the above, I will be also be asking you email me directly at everythingis3bay@hotmail.co.uk. All you need to do is inform me of a fashion item / accessory that you have seen in-store or online, and I will do my best to find you the exact same item (if not, a similar one) on eBay for a cheaper price! Your email will need to include:

  • a description of the clothing item(s), including the name of the shop that you saw it in
  • an image of the item(s) (a quick phone snap will do! You can usually send these straight from your phone to an email address within seconds)
  • if the clothing item was found online, just send the link across!
  • don’t forget to tell me your name so that when I share my finding’s with the rest of the EVERYTHING IS EBAY community they can thank you for it!
  • I will get back to you within 48 hours, when I will have done my best to have found you a similar or even the exact same item on eBay for a cheaper price!

THINK YOU CAN DO BETTER? See if you can make more money than I can. Take a look at the competition section below!
