It’s opportunistic. I’m in Target and see that Starbucks has some smaller city mug line Across the Globe. Check Ebay app and only a couple of other locals are on to it. I bought a couple and figured I could give them to relatives as gifts if they didn’t sell. Sold before my sale for $39 plus shipping.
Runner up is this cool graphic kids bedding. A brand I never heard of. Paid $10 apiece at a small school fundraiser rummage sale and took best offer of $60. God I love rummage sales. https://www.ebay.com/itm/334578888675
I saw 24 but not today. Glitchy today unfortunately. Lost a bit of work mid-list. 😑
Tried to post my numbers and edit but lost it. If you can fix or let it know I’m not a spammer, thanks.
For sure it’s this atomic starburst piece. $135 for one coffee mug. https://www.ebay.com/itm/334625135845
I’ve been lucky to find here and there a piece of this pattern and it’s popularity has really exploded. On Facebook I’ve seen people post that they found a whole set. Amazing.
I listed 52 items this week. Determined to finish Christmas
I bought a box full of studio art pottery for $40 including this Irish vase https://www.ebay.com/itm/334653612872
I’d kind of like to keep it but really don’t need another vase.
I had one this week and have personally experienced the delivery company saying it was delivered up to 12-16 hours before actually delivered. Must be tempting to the driver to meet some metrics. I told the person to wait one day and then contact me again if it didn’t show. If it hadn’t I would have contacted Ebay but not refunded unless a super cheap item.
UPS is usually the premium, more accountable carrier though.

Number of items listed this week: 27Week turned out ok, but was hoping for better. Looking at the breakdown and my final value fees are over 30%. That does not include promoted fees. Is that normal? I thought it was much lower previously but haven’t been paying attention.
I’m proud to say that I made it to the bottom of my Christmas bin and started listing some ornaments we inherited, with just a few of those left. I also finally located my small Thanksgiving hoard and got that listed just in time. Most was Pottery Barn and Williams Sonoma and sold right away. So, finally almost through the holiday piles. This week should be ok for listing knock wood.
J&R I always have thought maybe you drive into the metro area during the week and do some sourcing, bring it back to your lair in the country with warehouse. You know the quality stuff. You might get some stuff in your mix that is not so long tail.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/234796825850 I scavenged these this week from the guest room closet. Happy I remembered before Christmas. They are originally from a relative and I’ve listed about 10/25. The ornament hanger I saw in comps and was super cheap on Amazon so a good tool to have around.
Not a high dollar sale but my favorite because I knew to pick it up for .50 and it’s an overlooked item for sure. Only took a couple of months to sell. https://www.ebay.com/itm/334562633751
Sales pretty weak even before Black Friday. Time to throw some more logs in the fire… wishing for everyone good sales.
Nothing says Christmas like the devil. https://www.ebay.com/itm/334622562343 I made it late to thrift the Christmas throw up but everyone missed this guy. I just found another, larger wooden German Christmas decoration.
