No idea, but I thought it looks like SABALUM. There seems to be a foot making it an L – if that’s any help!

I hate buyers who tell you how to do your stuff. It’s patronizing and arrogant. Sorry you’re having to deal with one of them.
Jay, I use Easy Auction Tracker which deducts shipping in its final breakdown. I wonder if the new Managed Payments is going to adjust for it?
Thanks Old Dad. I do keep my paperwork, but hadn’t thought to jot down reasons. That’s good advice.
So Cal Joe, how do you deduct for storage? I don’t rent storage, everything is in my cabin/shed on our ranch.
07/20/2020 at 4:52 pm in reply to: Customer paid but asks to switch Fed Ex to USPS and “refund the overage” #79793I’ve also had buyers request postage overcharges. On what basis are they calculating their postage? Odd!
Do they have a street address for FedEx?
That’s interesting! Thanks Jay. I think I know a few folks who are going to get a surprise tax audit for their “hobbies” in that case!
I’m not aiming to show a loss, I’d just like to be sure I wrote off all I was allowed. For declared expenses I prorated mortgage interest, insurance, property taxes, and utilities between personal and business use of the home. I deducted COGS and vehicle expenses during the course of the year. I did not deduct internet or telephone because apparently you have to have a second telephone line in the house to claim a phone line, and our phone bill and internet service is one DSL line, and is not separated in the account, so I can’t identify which is phone cost. I charged office expenses, like pens, printer ink or paper, etc. as purchased. I think that’s it.
For those who are into numerology, eight is the number of “grace”. Which is relevant because I’ve this is my 8th week of zeroes. However, my grace period has ended! My BFF gave me a polite kick in the keister to turn my store on this weekend and I have already got new orders, so I’m back in the saddle! Everyone needs a friend like her. She’s caring and considerate, but she also sells on eBay and so she don’t take no excuses! LOL.
Wishing you all a wonderful week with some great listing. Really pleased to see how well the Christmas challenge is going.
Anyone want to do the August challenge?

They are prefabricated buildings and come in whichever degree of fitting your handiness requires. You can buy a basic shell, and do all of the insulation, walls, ceiling etc. Or a moderately fitted, where they’ve done electrical, insulation, etc and you do the rest. If you have the funds, you can have them fully fitted and ready to move in.

07/16/2020 at 11:18 pm in reply to: Problem Connecting Bank Account to Managed Payments? A solution… #79669After I did my name change, I waited a bit, maybe an hour, and then went back and chose the option to add another bank. Then I put in all the same bank details again. No change of bank, the exact same bank details. Then I waited about 4 hours and it all connected without a hitch.
LOL, Jay, happy to help, it’s just easier to type than uploads screenshots. I was probably just being grumpy.
Thanks for sharing!
Posting a screen capture is a PITA because we have to capture, save, upload to Imgur, then share the link. Easier to just tell you.
Highest sold was $51.95 in April 2020, lowest was $14.95 in Sep 2011. Most go for around $29.99, second largest price range around $39.9907/15/2020 at 9:00 am in reply to: Advice about customer wanting me to mail back her returned item #79597Out of left field idea here, but did you know Office Depot/Max does comb binding for about $5? Can you get the book rebound? I do a lot of comb binding (have a manual machine) and, unless your book is very unusual, new comb binding is quite possible.
Spreadsheet updated. Libby wins again – by one! 😀
Congrats to everyone getting in their Christmas Challenge items. Great stuff!
Have a great week, y’all!
LOL. Antique Frog, the English are, and always will be, unique.
With a very mixed heritage, including Scottish and English, and bi-annual visits to the UK to visit family, I’m confident that we’re not that far removed, for the most part. Every country has its whack jobs, but underneath it all, we’re close enough.
