Sorry to hear that Clarity. Yeah, it’s a pain. I’ve gotten it on new listings from scratch, sell similar, and on sell-one-like-this from existing listings by others with condition info included.

Money spent on new inventory this week: $22.51
New Listings: 27I really enjoyed hearing you guys talk about your auction experiences. I am one of those working full-time with kids, so it always takes coordination to get out to one. And I am, quite frankly, intimidated by the experience. So I enjoyed hearing you talk about your experiences, it sort of helps gird me for getting out to more of them.
Curiously, 2 days after I sold the percolator I received an email from Ebay saying my listing was canceled. This didn’t affect the sale, but now I can’t give or I assume receive feedback. The percolator I sold was not a recalled item, but because these Corningware percolators have had a bunch of recalls, they are apparently not allowed to be sold on Ebay.
Yeah, I did have a lot of 90s vinyl records (punk, hardcore stuff) that I found had quite a bit of value to it. I was able to sell a lot of that, and I also had a lot of vintage software that sold really well. I had a background in IT stuff, so I had amassed this collection of what I presumed was just obsolete junk of 90s software and hardware. Found that I have been able to sell quite a bit of it. Although software mores than hardware.
Other than that I’ve just been trying a bunch of things. I think you said on a podcast at some point that your motivation was desperation. And I pretty much feel that way. I think Ebay offers a pathway out of my day job, and in conjunction with a few other things could be really great.
I enjoy doing lots of different things everyday, and the desperation for me is to finally take hold of my schedule completely.
