I feel like you are family and this makes me sad, but honestly I’m not sure how you’ve done it this long!! What I’ve loved the most about your podcasts have been how REAL you have been through everything and there have been a lot of “things”. You’ve made yourself completely vulnerable, and how brave is that?! My husband have been listening to you since we got together 10 years ago and so somehow this marks a milestone in our own relationship. Since listening to you we have created a REAL business on ebay, have bought an airbnb and are moving towards our next business venture. With this next venture we will both have left our “professional jobs” to work for ourselves in our multi income stream businesses. This was your idea. Thank you for giving us the example, courage, advice, and belief that we can do it too. Much love. Jim and Crystal
Thanks Jay – that has basically been my stance too, but I like to double check myself periodically. Thx.

Hey allandsundry – sorry for the delay – i didn’t see an email notification that I had an answer!! If you are interested in more hours I would love to chat. If not, I would also love to hear from tobeacat about how the multi-user account on ebay is working for you. I’m trying to set that up and I can’t seem get it to work. Advice?? Thanks!
I see that this thread has been pretty inactive, but I will try to jump start it. I am looking for help with listings. I really like the model proposed by Blackcat above. Is anyone looking for this kind of work?
Steven – I noticed the same thing. I’m not even given Parcel Select as an option now. What happened to Parcel Select? And now my Priority rates are higher than by customers are being quoted so I’ve lost money on every item I shipped today. I’m going into my shipping policies to try to figure something out because this won’t work for me!
Anyone else seeing this or have suggestions??
Oh man!! Only 8 listings this week! And that is why I need a helper. Unfortunately she wasn’t able to work last week and so on my own I failed miserably!! I still haven’t taken the time to read how to get my cat pic uploaded, but I figure it just builds the anticipation to disappoint you all later 😉 No paper either. Maybe tomorrow! If the helper shows up!
We did win some pallet racking and some great ebay items at a local online auction which we picked up last week. That was time consuming and very exciting. I LOVE auctions! If I figure out the picture thing I will post a pic of my favorite win. Should be listing those soon too. Peace out.
I would love to post a picture of my mediocre cat, but I don’t know how to do that. Just imagine a large white fuzz butt with a tilted head. That’s him.
Hello!! I’m new to the group, but decided it’s good for me to get involved in a challenge! We will see how I do with following up. Not my strong suit!
So… a little about me. I do ebay full-time along with a few other “side hustles” as my friends like to call them. We have an airbnb next door and also just started our own auction company. So… those three things along with an amazing husband, three amazing daughters and a mediocre cat, keep me very busy! My husband helps a lot with the photos which keeps me hustling with listings lately. I also just hired a helper to started today. She will work about 6 hours a week taking photos for me. I’ve had helpers in the past and it makes SUCH a difference in what I can accomplish.
So, for this week we did 45 new listings. I think only a couple were paper. I really dislike doing ephemera, old photos, etc, so maybe this will help me get moving on some of those. Overall, very happy with my results this week. That’s a high number for me! Hopefully more in the future with my helper. We will see!
