J&R: Wow those are slow sales. Hope it picks up.
I hope you don’t consider this to be spam because that’s not how I intended it, but I recently listened (again) to a Planet Money podcast on escheat laws. You might have $ being held for you.

I went and check, filled out the form for Illinois escheat funds. The Illinois comptroller’s office sent me a check for $17.30. For Illinois residents go to: https://icash.illinoistreasurer.gov/
For escheat websites for other states just Google: escheat <your state>. Most states have these laws where the state holds abandoned bank accounts, old uncashed paychecks, etc. I looked up some friends and relatives on the Illinois site. Some had $ being held for them too.
I recevie no payment or kickback by telling you to check for your escheat funds. Just passing along info I have learned that might help others.
The eBay Payments >> Reports >> Transaction Report is useless. I generated the report 5.5 hours ago. The download link appears, but when I click on the download link it does nothing. Does this report (a month’s worh of data) take several hours to generate?
Hello all:
eBay recently reported earnings. Not too bad, but the drop in users is rather unsettling.

I see the USPS is creating new postal categories for business:

Fellow scavengers: Here’s an episode of Judy Justice (new Judge Judy show) where an eBay seller takes sham buyer to court: https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B09HGJMQ9X/ref=atv_3p_fre_c_VP02MC_2_1
eBay Store Owners: Don’t forget to order your free supplies:
I did a check of my inventory. I think this is the first time I reconciled my spreadsheet with my actual listed inventory. I have 200 items listed. I found 4 items in my inventory that weren’t actually listed. One of the items I remember delisting. I think the other 3 had something to do with buyers buying the item and immediately cancelling. I failed to relist. Passing this along so you can be sure to relist these types of items/situation s.
Is anyone else using Go Daddy Bookkeeping? I know J&R used it some time ago, but switched to something else.
Anyway, my issue is GDB and possibly the way I have it set up hasn’t worked correctly since I started eBay Managed Payments around March 2021. I had GDB syncing with eBay, My credit union checking account and Pay Pal. It was recording my profit significantly higher than what it actually should have been. I removed my credit union checking account. Now my profit seems to be less than what it should be. I have Pay Pal configured because my postage labels get paid through Pay Pal.
How do you have yours configured?
Jay, Ryanne: I’m just curious as to whether you’ve heard of this coffee company that claims to have figured out how to grow coffee in the contiguous U.S.
