Yeah, when we sell on CL or Facebook, its vey addictive. All cash, no fees. I can see why some dudes just want that kind of business.
But it is a lot of work communicating and meeting people. Different kind of business.
Do you keep them in your house? I feel they’d come alive and haunt my nightmares

Very interesting fact about the chargeback happening because a card got lost. NOT a person complaining. Makes more sense when an item is shown as delivered and the buyer doesnt return it.

Boy was I wrong. Our staff all wear masks, but people are crowding into our cafe without a worry in the world. Assume the vaccine has made people feel good and safe.
Glad you had a fun trip to Florida. With he new baby, sounds like you have a year of lockdown coming.

Glad you helped get your son into college! Thats huge. Now its up to him 😉
We’re also on the slow sales train. Wonder if slows sales are mainly for us sellers who deal in weird, old stuff. Not everyone’s sales are slow.
We used to sell big old electronics, but also had issues with them not working properly. Old turntables was our bread and butter for while until we started getting hit with expensive returns. Never had the passion to learn to fix them.
That’s good timing. I bet real estate prices are crazy in FL right now.
I forgot your status. Did you ever move to Florida? Wasn’t that the retirement plan?
VEROs are tough because they seem very arbitrary. As you said, all you can do is limit your exposure to brands that are aggressive in policing their trademark.
How’s the new house going? Do you have any issues buying up big patch lots?
For consistency, you can buy coffee right off the Broad Porch website: https://www.broadporchcoffee.com/

About ten years ago, our local ReStores were incredible. We renovated our home with brand new Anderson windows and Hardie Board siding for cheap.
But now our Restores are either picked over too quickly or just way too expensive. I feel one of the stores is storing away the good stuff to sell to their favorite buyers.
Plus, construction material is crazy expensive now and they now this.
Its nice when your average sale is almost $300 CAD!
