LOL, VT, dunno how I got that number! π Maybe it was supposed to be added to VL.
All numbers updated per the above. I added one more to my total, taking me to 3.
You have until the end of the day today, 5PM Central Time, to update your GOLD totals, and the winner will be announced.
Spreadsheet updated. No need to announce the winner, is there? π
Could I ask you all a favor? I’ve been updated the April Challenge numbers as we go along. Would you please all have a look at the figures I have for you and let me know if I have any wrong? Challenge ends on Thursday, so list your gold items and lets make Mr. T really happy.
That reminds me – who has the May Challenge?
Sharyn, you’re a hoot!
Julie B, go you! What a great week.
Libby – no words!
Thanks to VT’s motivation, I listed 12, two of which were gold. One of the gold ones sold that night, so thanks Mr. T!
Join the group BOSS – Business for Online Selling Success on Facebook. They have a post where folks list excess stock for sale.
Wow, this is a year of new records. For the third time this year, we have a tie for first place! Well done to Libby and VT!
And, UtahBill, believe it or not, you’re in second! Now, now, breathe… there you go! Don’t you feel good?
Spreadsheet updated. Now, Mr. T has noticed that only one person posted gold this week for Mr. T’s April Gold Challenge and he has a message for you!
Can’t help identify it, but I turned it around and brought out the design. Hope this helps someone else identify.
Thanks to VT for putting a boot to my behind, I have listed…. one. Hey, I actually did 6 listings, but 5 didn’t make it out of drafts due to injury. Meh! Will just have some ready-to-go for this week’s totals. Yay!
On a sad note, my family has had a COVID death. My sister-in-law’s father fell, hit his head, and went to hospital for a check up. He went home okay, but they didn’t realize he’d caught COVID while he was there, and he died shortly after. I never met him, but my UK family is pretty cut up about it, as he died alone and they can’t even go to his funeral. Sad news for the end of the week.
Hope you are all staying safe and, for the love of life, please don’t fall!
Cool tip, thanks!
Welcome to the joys of scavenging! π
The best mask making tutorial yet!
eBay automatically approved a return on March 13. It’s also still outstanding. I’ve tried contacting eBay with no luck, and I used the email option to contact eBay CS. They responded with what seemed an automated reply that I needed to contact the buyer. I’ve done so and I’ve had no response from them either. I’ve received two auto-emails from eBay since asking if the return has been received and telling me to contact the buyer, but giving me no other options. Nobody has replied to me directly/personally with any information. You got more than I did.
This is a great idea! I love that we can find good in this!
Your point #5 made me laugh. I read somewhere something along the lines of
“I had so much that I planned to do, but I always thought I didn’t have time. Turns out that wasn’t the problem!” πMy positives aren’t so much eBay related, but they’re Pandemic Positives
1. My husband’s business is going nuts. We have so many people finding out about us that never knew we existed. We’re grateful for his increase in business due to my dance business being closed down due to COVID-19. It has increased the workload more than the influx of machines, though, as we now have to run around and meet folks by appointment at drop off points, so we’re working longer hours and more days than ever – but with so many worrying about how to make the rent, we’re humbly thankful for our blessings.2. I love how the community is starting to pull together! People in our county town are making masks by the handful and donating them for free! People are coming forward with grocery provisions, taking care of the elderly, special opening hours, stepping up to be the neighbors we never knew we had. Our tiny library is running a full-time curbside book loan program. It’s so heartwarming! Today I dropped off a sewing machine that we’re loaning for free to the community mask project , and tomorrow the hubs is going to service the machines they have that went down, also at no charge. We felt that it was our community service to step forward and help those who are working so hard. These ladies, who spend all day every day churning out free masks for our community, turned around gratefully and asked what they could do for US in return! Such generosity of spirit. I wanted to cry! It makes me so proud to be part of this town!
Tea light candle?
Hey gfd_622, I feel your pain. There are some days where you absolutely fall over yourself to be helpful and nice to buyers, and then wonder why you bothered when they (metaphorically) kick your teeth in. I’ve had a couple buyers that have annoyed me too, just lately, but that’s been via email rather than on feedback.
Hang in there, dude. This COVID’s making everyone crazy!
Wow! About half of you had listings ending in a two, most of the rest listed 8. So, 2s and 8s win the day. Anyone want to play the lottery? π
Spreadsheet updated and we have another tie! Well done to Libby and VL.
LBH – yes, this month’s challenge is very liberal, but I see that lots of folks are participating this month. Mr. T for the WIN!
Welcome back to listing, Julie B! Hope that means your back is feeling better. And Jen, no worries, all updates will be added.
Generally, if someone doesn’t post for four weeks in a row, on the fifth week, if they still haven’t posted, I move them down. If they come back, I just move them back up into the active group and add in any weeks they advise.
Good going, everyone. Mr. T would be proud. Keep it up!
