I wish eBay would allow you to easily narrow your search to their detailed category higher archy. Why can’t I search in:
Pottery & Glass > Glass > Glassware > 40s, 50s, 60s > Federal
As for bookstores, I find its a pretty even split. I have a few used bookstores that I source from and it’s clear that they don’t pre-scan the books.
You guys are the George Bailey’s of scavenging. You have had such a profound impact on all of us. I am so sad to see you go, but understand will remain supportive.
Thanks for all you have done.
Here is my sales of the previous week and I did nothing. Looks like there may have been something else in play on August 24th. Did eBay send out another round of 5% eBay bucks coupons. Everyone post your metrics for last week. It would be interesting to see if we all of our sales track similarly.
Very impressive research! If anyone else tries a mass re-listing, please post your results here. It would be interesting to see what data we could collectively squeeze out of this experiment.
Gotcha – I am pretty much a novice with these tapes but I do find even with the low quality ones, there are people who enjoy treasure hunting the contents. You probably won’t sell to the connoisseurs but there are others.
@steve I think you left a little money on the table with those used Reel To Reels. I usually lot similar ones together in groups of 5 or 6 and sell for $30.00 bucks a pop. They go pretty quickly.
Anyone out there have Worthpoint. I found some of her work that has previously sold

Can someone let me know what these paintings sold for?
Thanks @AF! That was the nudge I needed – I just found an obituary for Katharine (Kitty) Van Meter Sadock and judging by the contents of the obituary, this has go to be her!
Thanks so much for your help
I am so happy things turn out okay for you this time, but I promise you one day you will get negative feedback AND THE WORLD WILL KEEP TURNING.
You did everything right, but occasionally negative feedback happens. So don’t sweat it too much.
I’d cancel the order and provide a refund. If shipping wasn’t included in the price of the sale, then don’t refund the shipping cost.
Go ahead and re-list the item and let the buyer know they can buy again.
Thanks for the explanation, perhaps my use of the word “tone” was too harsh. I was just confused as to what the issue was. Thanks for explaining and sharing. I love this community.
I don’t understand the tone of this post. What possible reason would you NOT want your items to advertised on sites outside of eBay?
Annoying, but not really a change. In the time before managed payments, PayPal assed their fee on the total sale including tax. So now rather than PayPal collecting, eBay collects. Part of this is the cost of accepting credit card payments. For example, when you go to Walmart and use your credit card, Walmart pays the credit card company their fee based on the total sale.
It’s the cost of banking.
