@Retro thinking good healing thoughts for your little ones. Keep us posted.
looks like my numbers post was lost on editing.

If I mentioned these before, forgive me. I found several of these cards in my Halloween stuff and have no idea where I got them. Peanuts collectors are to be respected, very serious. Made $60 on three cards without envelopes. I once sold a sealed set of Snoopy cards for $60 from the 1970s. Amazing.

I didn’t do any sourcing last week, but found this candle ring at an estate sale recently for .50. Usually these look pretty tacky and are Christmas but I thought this one was nice. If it doesn’t sell maybe I’ll use it on Thanksgiving. I only go to estate sales randomly and late, but I always can pride myself on finding something others overlooked.

Unusual sale of food item – paid .98 apiece in early August for these. A lady in England almost bought one and wrote me a long note about it. WS is selling a new version again this year but I think mine will sell.
Ties with a really old item that I believe benefited from sell similar treatment. Finally sold best offer $50 https://www.ebay.com/itm/334587732596. I had it up much higher originally and thought it would go for more. It is on it’s way to Brooklyn.
Listed 8 items last week before I got sick. Stay well everyone!
I have been listing my one big bin of Christmas so I need to get the last few of those items sold. I also have a couple more bulky items of my personal Halloween decor I’ve decided to let go of and list. Somewhere I have a small box of Thanksgiving stuff that I really need to look for again. Holiday is my priority though I ought to think about whether or not I have any giftworthy items lying around that are listed. Need to stay away from sourcing and list some things around here. I think I missed the Christmas stuff being put out anyway.

Number of items listed this week: ? not manyAs mentioned we were really ill last week. Finally feeling better today. Everyone consider getting your flu shot at least. Monday my dad came over and picked up my weekend packages because I wasn’t really even feeling well enough to drive. I only made offers on soft easy to pack stuff. Today I shipped out a bunch of larger items. Hope to get a lot of listing done next week.
There are some crazy viral bugs circulating right now folks – protect yourselves. Pretty much every virus that went dormant during Covid is back with a vengeance and all at the same time.
Um, yep. We are here in sunny California and just had the worst non-Covid virus. It was much like getting Covid 5 except the fatigue wasn’t there along with the long list of symptoms so you can just lie awake for all of it. My daughter tested negative for flu, so what’s up? Hope everyone else manages to avoid getting this stuff. Personally, I’m going back to mask wearing, though this one came from the high school.

Number of items listed this week: 13Thanks Sharon. Last week was ok but sales are slow for me now. It’s not a great time but I’ve kind of taken my foot off the gas a bit. Also was sourcing a little much before last week and I want to make sure to keep my listing ahead of my sourcing. My daughter is pretty sick this week so hoping she doesn’t start testing positive for Covid because that would be another set back. Gotta get my mojo back.
That’s cool. I love finding and selling vintage nautical items. It’s hit and miss here.
@Mark I’m not seeing this on Ebay labels. It might be because I’m on the coast but FedEx is still beating UPS routinely for me. However I don’t often have items over 3 pounds.

Sales were very bread and butter this week, however I picked this because was one of the items I think was helped along either by my 4% promoted listing or Pinterest. It sold super quickly. Someone paid full price. On Terapeak there are 8 solds in the last year, all lower than this. There are also 5/8 actives at the same or lower price, some with free shipping.
