Our eBay store feels like its fully back in business with consistent daily sales of all the weird stuff we find. Since we’ve been listing on eBay since 2008, there are actually items that may have taken ten years to sell. Kind of nuts to think about it, but the work was done a long time ago, the item doesn’t take up much room, and listing fees are almost nothing. Thank you past selves for making us money today.
Christine posted about how younger sellers are focused on sell through rates and only selling items that sell quickly. This is a wonderful way to sell but I assume they spend a lot of time choosing and resarching items to sell. And then spend a lot of time optimizing their listings to sell quicker. And then managing the listings that don’t sell quick so they don’t sit unsold. One way or another, it’s all work. No shortcuts.
Fall is here. Cold weather is coming.
