It is an interesting number and even more interesting that eBay is willing to reveal some of these overall metrics if true. Starts to give a sense of the size of eBay sellers.
Since some of us seem high on the list of certain categories, makes me feel that most of the 136k sellers(or whatever number) only sell a handful of items. We have a good sized inventory, but its not that big.
How down are your sales? We’re in the 3rd week of a fairly hefty fall in sales. Maybe 40% down from a month ago. Items are selling but its just our low dollar sales.
These are interesting numbers but difficult to believe. Is this rank by number of sales? I feel we dont get the number of sales in these categories to earn this rank. I can totally see you being #12 in used hats.
Mens Used hats: Your rank by sales (GMV) value: 435 out of 73,621 sellers in this category and condition
Other Contemporary Photographs: 364 out of 23,427 sellers in this category and condition
Shirts > Used T-Shirts: 996 out of 136,483 sellers in this category and condition
Men’s Accessories > Used: Ties 286 out of 47,016 sellers in this category and condition
Remote Controls / Used : 415 out of 34,399 sellers in this category and condition
Art > Art Prints / Listings condition: Unknown: 1,118 out of 109,452 sellers in this category and condition
Shirts > T-Shirts / Listings condition New: 883 out of 161,923 sellers in this category and condition
05/04/2021 at 9:09 am in reply to: Scavenger Life Episode 512: Want To Hear A Sad to Happy Story? #8847468 items! That gives us hope that people are buying (just not our stuff).
Now that you’re retired, selling on eBay, enjoying life, how much time do you put into the business? Does your wife still help? Listing 100 items in a week is no small feat.
Agree with everyone. Selling since 2008 and even if there were five times we needed that info (but cant remember), I’d rather take a loss on the items than do this paperwork.

05/03/2021 at 10:35 am in reply to: Scavenger Life Episode 512: Want To Hear A Sad to Happy Story? #88398That was my instinct when I say tis stack of Wrestler magazine from the late 1980’s. But many are not listed very high: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2499334.m570.l1312&_nkw=the+wrestler+magazine&_sacat=0
The high dollar comes when people sell lots: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=the+wrestler+magazine&_sacat=0&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1&_sop=16

05/03/2021 at 8:26 am in reply to: Scavenger Life Episode 512: Want To Hear A Sad to Happy Story? #88383Nice. We actually sell a lot of stationary when we find it. Slow sellers but there are collectors out there. Was it just brand new paper?
Yea, welcome. Being a lowbrow art curator will certainly come into play. Finding and selling overlooked art have been some of our most fun moments.
From my understanding, theres no way to list an item and then charge for a calculated shipping of multiple boxes. Best you can do is add a flat “handling fee” that would cover any extra shipping beyond the fist box.
Anyone here know a better way?
Is the shirt itself special? Some image on it? Often times old t-shorts just had generic brands.
THanks! As I tell everyone, vote with your dollars and keep coning in to enjoy the place.
