First, thanks for the information about LastPass and the JavaScript issue. I was getting the messages from eBay about JavaScript and I could not figure out what kept causing it. A mystery in life solved!
Planet Money did a podcast (857) about the international postal rates, particularly how China works. It was actually interesting how much goes into making the system work.
Planet Money 857Call it my OCD nature, but shouldn’t this be episode 356? 355 was “We Catch Up w/ Mark Tew, Not Your Dad’s CPA”.
I always get annoyed with myself when I mess up my shipping calculations and find out when I go to ship that I have to eat some of the cost. Today I sold a item that I was off by just a little bit which pushed it up to the next weight category for Priority mail, which is going to cost me an extra $4.62 since its going across the country. Oh well, cost of not double checking myself!
While checking one of the local Goodwills, I noticed several items that were the exact same thing on the shelf. Flipped it over to the back ready to scan the barcode and saw the FBA sticker and immediately thought about the LTSF and figured someone was dumping their slow moving items. I had been keeping my inventory turning okay enough so I did not have a lot of items subject to LTSF and so I ended up destroying most of my slow moving items since they were marginal items for FBA and not worth the cost and hassle of sending back and trying them on eBay.
I have mostly turned my efforts to eBay nowdays, FBA was very good at times, but the playground is not the same anymore.
